chris christie once said he told donald trump that, there is no way you could make an investigation shorter, but there s lots of ways you can make a longer. this is like when he did in the mueller investigation, he had a whole volume in the mueller report that talks about all the things he did to obstruct the investigation. and if you or i had done that, we have been indicted. right, that gets us to the final question which is, people have invoked the aisle component for tax evasion cliché all the time. the reason that they are able to do that is because of his black and white. they could show the money coming in, they could show it each of the government, boom. this seems closer to black and white and many of the other things, which to me seem morally and legally more profound. it s sort of like, let s see you are a u.s. attorney in the southern district of new york, and you re conducting this massive murder rico investigation into our mob timely. all of a sudden you got a phone
