Trust the plan

NYP

quote:

If they go down the presidential harassment track, if they want go and harass the president and the administration, I think that would be the best thing that would happen to me. I’m a counter-puncher and I will hit them so hard they’d never been hit like that,” he said during a 36-minute Oval Office sitdown.



quote:

But Trump told The Post he wanted to save the documents until they were needed. “It’s much more powerful if I do it then,” Trump said, “because if we had done it already, it would already be yesterday’s news.”

This statement shows absolutely Trump thinks on a different level than most of us.

Well, frick him, then.


The "secrecy" bullshite is maddening. It should be EXTRAORDINARILY difficult to have some information kept secret from the American people. The barrier to that should be tall and painfully difficult to overcome.

So it’s bad, but not bad enough to let the American people know unless Democrats attack him?

Do we care about the truth or do we care about it only when it serves us?

This story made me even more confident that Trump is entirely controlling the narrative and that is why CNN, Brennon, etc. are coming unhinged.

I look at it like a bomb. Do we drop it randomly or on NYE in Times Square?

We're talking about something that people claim would lead to indictments but it would be forgotten in a day?

You guys know "Presidential Harassment" isn't a thing, right?

There's probably a sizable group of people whose reputations/careers will be ruined, and possibly prosecuted.

It's a big card to hold. No need to waste it. Not yet.

If I were DJT, I would be more concerned about a Kennedy style plot.

It is humiliating to hear these men who have probably never thrown a punch in their life act like they are some prize fighter.

That is some deep state BS coming from Trump who is supposed to be draining the swamp!

Declassify and prosecute now, not when you need to distraction.

Great plan. Wait until the Dems take the House before he releases it.

While I agree generally - he IS playing their game, not his own. How many times have democrats used "timing" to their own advantage?

100% agree. why waste this on a slow news day? wait until the time is right..maybe right before 2020 election?

but if he delays too long this suffers from the 'who cares that was back in 2016/2017'
