   @Tilopa@convo.casa @Hey_Beth I have said the same thing for years. Garland is the person he has always been. When the DOJ acts it is because their hand is forced and they will have possible deniability for the higher-ups

     Oh, agreed. #TFG is the front man. He's not fully controlled by the donors anymore.

     Besides, large parts of the #GQP have been corrupted by #Russian (and probably #Saudi) #DarkMoney flows:

     https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/commentary/2018/05/08/how-putin-s-oligarchs-funneled-millions-into-gop-campaigns/

     In fact, I have called #TFG the most successful foreign asset in history, by now, I would include #Hitler's star spy, #Viereck. After all, he'd corrupted "only" 25 #Congressmen.

     #MAGA = #MoscowAgentGriftingAmerica

     Love Judd!

     But GOP dirty money donors do this type of thing every election cycle. This isn't Trump's doing.

     Sorry, but Trump has no official power, just influence. Even as POTUS, he couldn't summon a mob to do more than delay certification by a few hours.

     Sure, the GOP can destroy the budget process and use certain states to undermine democracy, but aren't they already?

     Trump is just a citizen. We need to quit self-censoring ourselves out of fear.

     "Trump is just a citizen."

     Power does not need to be "official". Wielding it is enough. Any other former government official would be behind bars pending trial, after the #MarALago search. This is power (e.g.)

     " We need to quit self-censoring ourselves out of fear."
     I am not saying that at all.
     That neither the 25 fascist Congressmen from the 1940s, nor #Nixon faced severe legal consequences is exactly why this happened again

     ...and his supporters will be calling it quite credibly a witch hunt before long and the #GQP controlled House will be trying to move against the #DOJ.

     Of course, this scenario is only my assessment, but the past and present are facts.

     The quote is correct.
     But I think we need to broaden our perspective:

     As of now, he is the #OrangeKing of the #MAGA faction, effectively contolling the #GOP, as well as the de facto party leader.
     Also, to many of the #FoxNews indoctrinated disciples, he comes close to a #messiah (there is even a book). Only god-kings or absolutist monarchs wieder more power. This is an explosive combination and #TFG has no compunction about...

     ...#ScorchedEarth.

     Yes, maybe attacking him simultaneously would be a good idea, causing him to have a multi-front war.
     But as the collapse of O.G. #Rogues sedition case shows (see my earlier response today), a) this time it will not only be 25 Congressmen involved, b) the case will not be as watertight (working at the behest of the leading foreign spy, all proven), and the #US is much more devided than during WWII.

     Loved Maddow's podcast, but my takeaway was different. That 40s trial dragged on so long, drained of momentum, that eventually it failed.

     Also, nothing says Garland has one chance. He can indict Trump for diff crimes (insurrection, documents, campaign finance, Muller's obstructions charges). He could hit him w parallel indictments or sequential indictments.

     Garland needs to get moving and quit waiting for the one perfect shot.

     They say "When you cone for the King, you better not miss". Why? Because the king has all the power.

     Trump is a part-time hotel DJ and full-time grifter. Garland has all the power of the US Gov. Trump just has a big mouth and some crazy followers.

     I am not a big fan of #garland
     However, he has only one real (initial) shot at the orange would-be king #tfg.

     I can only recommend anyone wanting to speed things up re/ a federal indictment to either listen how the indictments of 24 #US Congressmen who were guilty as sin collapsed in the 1940s on #RachelMaddows gripping #Ultra #podcast mini-series:
