re: #105 Jack Burton

How many times can they ignore Von Clownstick discussing classified national security information outside of a SCIF, in a publicly accessible place of business, in the presence of uncleared persons, and allow them to have smartphones anywhere near it before even the most corrupt, vapid, and soulless of them can’t take it anymore.

My theory is that the IC is going to take their time and release damaging information on the Trump Cult over the next 8 months to a year. Some will be stories damaging to the Trump ‘brand,’ some will kneecap his inner circle, most will shine a questioning light on Trump’s very legitimacy as president.

Once they’ve driven Trump’s approval into the mid-teens and scandalized his entire cabinet, they’ll tell him to go sit in the Oval and pretend to be president and see who gives a shit.

They won’t have to oust him, just completely de-legitimize him. A year of relentlessly negative news stories will do that.
