If that were the case, I don’t blame you. I doubt it is the case. For now. Actual evidence could change my thinking. We’ll see how far Jordan and others get. But, as of now, I simply do not trust the Republicans to be conducting an investigation that will actually yield what you believe is happening at the FBI, and Justice. It’s the party of lies and alternative universes, where reality does not apply. Like I said, it’s so difficult for me to take them seriously, when so many of them insist on a version of history that never actually took place, and a version of reality that is non existent.
I know it’s hard to just alienate their base, I get what’s self-destructive-looking about doing that, but, I do believe they should not wait for History to judge their lies and conspiracy theories. Thry should not wait for History to do the analysis for them. They need to man up and come clean. Whether it angers the bejesus out of their base, or not. We cannot expect to function if we have one party living in a fictional narrative universe. Democrats cannot do it for them. Independents cannot do it for them. The Republican Party has to face the music. Sooner or later.
Because they will not do that, it’s hard for me to see their eagerness to connect Hunter’s troubles to the president as anything other than simply revenge. Payback for two impeachments. Republicans supported a man who tried to derail the results of the election. McCarthy gave the Capital Police 1/6 tapes to Carlson, so Carlson could sanitize 1/6., and what, make heroes out of those folks? He tried to. They need to cut that **** out!! Right now, they are the Party of Lies and Fake News. Are they proud of that?
Just have no reason to trust such a party to be honest with that investigation. They need to take a serious look at themselves. With few exceptions, they don’t seem willing to do so. So, for now at least, eff them and their going nowhere investigation.
If, and when, they prove to me that Truth is something they value, well, maybe that will happen someday. Right now, they do not.
