Bill Mitchell: "Collins might never have voted for Kavanaugh and given her epic speech without an FBI investigation. The FBI investigation might never have happened unless Flake demanded it. Who did Flake talk to right before demanding it?

Rosenstein.

Not everything is as it appears."

I wouldn’t trust Flake or rosenweasel on anything.

I doubt that DJT would talk to Rosenstein on AF1 if he were about to can him. Unless, of course, he’s planning to push him out of the plane...

I don’t credit conspiracy theories.

Let Democrats believe in them.

I think that’s a stretch. Occam’s razor. Coons and other Dems cornered Flake after the elevator incident and convinced him there was no harm in giving them this.

The harm unfortunately will be to future nominees. Look for endless delays and repeated demands for last-minute FBI investigations.

I’m sure some things were going on behind the scenes.

With time, we will learn more about it.

Just as with the passage of time, we will learn more about how the character assassination of Brett Kavanaugh was developed, how Democrats decided to pull it off, which Democrats besides Feinstein had their fingerprints all.over it, etc.

I think the Repubs gave into the dems & Flake.

Nah....the only thing that was up was UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES. They NEVER EXPECTED this outcome from this additional delaying tactic.

Comey was gung ho on an FBI investigation. Maybe he and Rosenweasel thought they had some info planted that agents would find.

Still don’t trust Rosenweasel. At all.

Very true on the unintended consequences, but I’d back it up just a bit.

1. The didn’t expect a Kavanaugh pushback
2. They didn’t expect a president fighting for his nominee
3. They didn’t count on McConnell’s commitment to push this nominee through.

The Dems are gonna need a new playbook, cause the one they are using now is out of date.

The whole thing was predicated on Kavanaugh withdrawing or Trump pulling the nomination. Once those things didn’t happen they really started to scramble.

If this was a deep state Rosenweasel operation then the FBI reports would have come back with something that really WOULD have caused Flake and Collins to vote no.

Totally not buying it. We came usually close to completely blowing it, and it would have been on Flake.

My mind still boggles at this:

An FBI investigation that was given a week to operate FINISHED WITHIN A WEEK!

Yes, I think that’s true.

Flake served a purpose here, by accident.

Anything with Rosenstein that might be construed as good is probably just coincidence. But I argued all along that delaying for the hearing (I was lukewarm about the investigation) creating small delays were inconsequential in the big picture. The counter argument was that delays allowed Dems extra time for malfeasance. But their malfeasance failed. Also our side looks much better as a result of the hearing and investigation.

The investigation was clearly a good thing, but the weasel is still just a weasel.

Behind the curtain on this, I suspect we’d find the rotten cabbage stench of Hitlery and the mighty odongo, their Blessed One.

I had that exact same thought.

Here is another idea: Suppose Rosenstein was an inside agent for Trump? Baiting people like McCabe and Comey? I doubt it, but its an interesting idea.

They thought Kav would withdraw under the smear.

He didn’t , so they doubled down and it blew
up in their faces.
