the like that he has we ve already sent. but the interesting part of the whole counterintelligence side of this thing. as you say there is, once you get into sort of the espionage world, it s all a hall of mirrors and denials and plausib plausible counterways of portraying these things and gru and the trump organization are experts in how to make it seem that there is and at least confusing the matter about what has been going on. but as a legal matter, i think it will be straight forward. of course when you come can to trump, it s less the legal matter and more the political matter and how will this sound to the members of congress. which brings us to roger stone who has been very public on he ll never roll on the president .
usually something that happens in the moment, not something you plan for. and there is the sheer destructive thing, here we are 35 days later and accomplished nothing. zero all they accomplished is to endanger senate republicans, tank his approval ratings and put tremendous hardship and stress on hundreds of thousands of american households. the president is really into making deals now his political advisors in and out of the white house have reassured him that look, once you do this, you don t have to take it as a cave, you have a series of weeks and at that point, if negotiations don t go your way, and the democrats don t bend at the knee and give you the billions of dollars of wall funding you so desperately want and need apparently, you have the national emergency option in your back pocket this doesn t have to be the end of the road. he could still very well do that the probability of that is not anywhere close to zero, but as most fair observers on that

lengths to set up these cover stories, inside cover stories. what he didn t do was delete these texts. so this guy who has spent his entire life doing cover ups, didn t do soys there probably more in his home now in the fbi s possession. we have michael cohen who s pleaded to lying to congress, also also campaign finance violation he says was directed by the president. george papadopoulos, paul manafort convicted, rick gates and now roger stone indicted. when you think of the circle around this man, the president and his campaign and the criminality in evidence of those people, it s something to contemplate. it s amaze and you haven t
