Any stupidity will do. If it demeans President Donald Trump, rips him apart, stymies even his most positive objectives, possibly helps impeach him, it is permissible to slap the face of democracy through any deceptions, irrationalities, illegalities or other dubious tactics available. So goes the leftist, Democratic mentality and seldom has it breached logic to the extent it is now in attacking his plans to uncover the truth about the Mueller probe.
This project must be scary stuff for at least a few of Trump’s most dedicated enemies because they could then be in trouble. There’s reputation to worry about, plus the demolition of their tall tales and something else: their status as officials who abided by the law. The good side for the rest of us could be finding out how it got started, this two-year investigation that disrupted governance and could have illegitimately undone the results of a legitimate election, a case of bureaucratic betters displacing deplorable voters.
From the beginning, there seemed to be no evidence of the dominating, pronounced speculation that the Trump campaign had somehow worked with Russians to hack emails of his election opponent, Hillary Clinton. If a probe begins with a suspicious thesis, that’s a danger — why, then, couldn’t the FBI investigate anybody it wanted to for political reasons?
Please also know that varied disclosures point to use of a phony dossier paid for by the Clinton campaign to further spying that Democrats say was not spying mainly because they may not know how to use dictionaries. It seems to some this probe was rationalized more through high-up fretting than down-to-earth realities. Declassifying classified material could give us an answer one way or the other, and that’s what Trump figures on doing through the able, honorable Attorney General William Barr. The Democrats and their media lovers aren’t having any.
