Gowdy is making a claim here. I hope he can deliver. I’m not optimistic in his regard.
Good observation.
The only curious element here is the timing. Gowdy endorsed Trump, then this.
The most likely outcome is a whitewash by Gowdy. I’m guessing what was really going on in Benghazi was Iran Contra on steroids. State wanted to move guns and missiles from one set of Muslims to another, and got approval from both Republicans and Democrats for the scheme. No way that comes out in the report and Gowdy keeps his standing with the Uniparty.
It’s possible Trump convinced Gowdy that it’s time to choose sides, and Gowdy will move from carrying Uniparty water to skewering Hillary, even if it means some Republicans bleed too.
Chris Christie knows where a lot of Uniparty skeletons reside, and has opted to take a chance on Trump. Gowdy may do the same. He’s smart, and maybe didn’t like being told that “this is the way we do it in Washington, Trey.”
One can hope Gowdy has a patriot heart to go with the oratory, or failing that he’s a mercenary SOB and has come to the conclusion that President Trump is more likely than not.
