I do not share your enthusiasm over the way the Repubicans handled this. Not one step of the say, until now when we had to call in the FBI.
Well, we’ll have to see how this plays out. If it happens the way I have described it as going, then you’ll have to realize that this is politics.
I don’t see what Grassley could do, except to call in this psycho. Sweep it under the rug? Dismiss it as a lie? For what, to get it into a Senate vote that was going to be exposed to all of this and fail?
There is definitely “playing” going on here, and it is the Dems, playing for all the marbles. I think their play was all orchestrated all of the way back to the antics at the opening of the committee. They’ve had this psycho on ice since 2012, waiting to play this gambit.
Why didn’t Grassley just allow a failing vote in committee? After all, ALL Republicans hate Trump, don’t they? This crap gave R’s on the committee plenty of cover, didn’t it?
