You could be forgiven for having a difficult time following all the players in the continuing saga that has engulfed Congressional committees, the president, the FBI, the NSA, Russia, the Clintons, former FBI Director Comey, WikiLeaks, the media, and who know how many others. The old baseball adage fits: “You can’t tell the players without a scorecard.”
Continuing the baseball metaphor, part of the problem is that it’s not entirely clear who is on whose team. Or for that matter, it’s not clear how many teams there are.
When one sits down to write a piece about this turmoil, one question that comes to mind is how much do potential readers already know, and how much time should be spent rehearsing information in an attempt to help clarify things rather than to obfuscate — something our politicians do well enough anyway.
So when we begin a piece with the assertion that Special Counsel Mueller might be accused of doing the very thing former FBI Director Comey accused President Trump of doing, do your eyes just glaze over, or is this all crystal clear to you?
We’ll try to straighten this out and clarify things for you, as well as hopefully explaining why this is important on page two.
I agree with Linda Heimbaugh
Sounds asinine doesn’t it?
Mueller should be fired for cause, in that he has clear conflicts of interest and is deliberately hiring a completely biased staff with clear reasons to bear enmity against President Trump.
Matt,you are amazing .If you were as educated as you would like us to think you would know what that phycho babble meant.
It meant because of your tunnel vision you have missed your high point in this post.
It’s called not looking at both sides before you make a conclusive statement.
Doctor.LOL. not.I am a carpenter not A Republican either.sure ain’t a democrat.
But alas,I served my country during Vietnam to give folks the right to be wrong.so mote it be.
Trolls are out in full force this weekend. Must be “Soros welfare check payment weekend”!
Ha Ha Ha…..liberals what to do with them?
Thank you for your service. I am sure you are a fine carpenter and a fine man.
We just disagree about politics.
I wish you all the best.
I will redouble my efforts at understanding opposing arguments. That is why I try to engage in discussions, preferably civil duscussions, with those holding opposing views.
I do not understand how the on-going Special Counsel investigation, for example, can be dismissed by Trump supporters as nothing serious.
I will try to look outside my tunnel to better understand this conundrum.
That was before Comey was Fired.
Comey has lots of experience changing what he calls the truth.
Fire him
Doesn’t just make you hate Washington, DC?
