Re: POTUS 45.11: Attack! Repeat. Atrack!!!
No, you've fallen for a GOP talking point. It doesn't matter that Trump wasn't investigation at that time. When you go after the mafia you start with Joey Five Fingers the guy who makes people fall out of windows. Once you have him penned you work him til rats out his boss, and on up the line. At some point you reach critical mass and the entire edifice collapses.
This is even easier with Trump than it was with Nixon, because Nixon, as bizarre as it seems, inspired true belief and loyalty. Look at Pat Buchanan 40 years later still peddling lies and self-delusion. Trump OTOH has no loyalty and inspires none. Outside the immediate family his operation runs on grift and intimidation. There is no reason for any of his stooges to remain loyal because they know Trump will stab them in the back at the first trickle of sweat on his soft, fat brow. At least Uday and Qusay have Pablo Escobar's sociopathic sangfroid. The Fat Infant himself will squeal the second pressure is applied, so it's every man for himself.
There is no Omertà with Trump. There is no honor at all.
