Cal Thomas on American confidence

@Aqua-Letifer said in Cal Thomas on American confidence:
It's entirely his own fucking fault. It's exactly what he wanted.
I'm wondering if this whole FBI business is more of the same.
I can never forget what he said during one of his impeachments, I think it was: "I always find a way to win."
But no, we get some asshole who legitimizes the woke narrative instead. Someone who mocks reporters with disabilities, mocks illegal immigrants, and brags about sexual harassment: exactly the sort of shit the wokes were accusing every out-group of doing.
The far right loved it of course, . . . they could no longer tell the difference between someone who's pouring gas on the problem for his own ends, and their own personal political savior. You voted for a troll you saw as Atticus Finch simply because he trolled for your side.
What we needed was an adult in the room, someone whose reasonability would act as a foil to the increasing craziness of woke culture.Such a person would have had tons of moderate support and could have made a serious go at stopping this nonsense. Instead we voted in a firestarter and look where we're at.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if it isn't too late to do just that? What names, if any, come to mind?
They'd need to get busy, though. It's this close to being too late.
Excellent essay, Aqua. You said very skillfully exactly like it is.

And...Justice refuses to release the affidavit. After being asked to by Trump.
Why would law enforcement tell a suspect of an investigation exactly what they know and how they know it, who tipped them off about what, etc?

@Jolly said in Cal Thomas on American confidence:
You howled because Trump didn't immediately call for the release of the warrant.
Now, you want the affidavit locked away in a box.
Make up your mind.
No. He didn’t need to call for it’s release. He could publish it at will.

Was it published?
Yes, it was.
Now, why won't Justice publish the affidavit?

As I said a few posts up:

Can you think of other criminal investigation targets who got to see exactly what the government knew and how they knew it?
I’ll wait for an answer this time.
