What horse crap.
Mar a lago was raided after multiple requests from the FBI regarding Trump's possession of classified documents. In addition, the FBI was at the time an independent agency; furthermore, one would be hard pressed to make the argument that Merrick Garland pursued a political agenda while AG.
Talk about horse crap! Look,
this investigation started in 2020 and for reasons known only to the Biden administration, it was stopped. Now it has restarted and obviously there is something there. According to the article linked, two days before the book was released, the NSC advised Bolton's lawyer that the manuscript contained classified information.
Trump put toadies in as AG and FBI director after spending his campaign promising retribution for anyone who had slighted him.
If by slighted, you mean hoax after hoax meant to derail campaigns and interfere with his presidency, then I admit, I have to agree.
And I have no problem with Patel's book, so that article means nothing to me. Then again, nothing written by the Guardian means anything to me.
Mainstream media certainly has its faults, but using these particular instances a examples is the worst kind of bad faith argument. If you can't see the difference, that's your problem, not the media's.
When you hate the media and the establishment as much as I do, it won't come off as a bad faith argument. It only seems that way, because you supported any and all bad faith arguments put forth against a person you hate. Personally, I still maintain that Trump is a **** and always has been. That doesn't change the fact that the coordinated efforts between the media and the establishment parties to side-step the wishes of the electorate is something that I will never agree with or condone. I certainly wouldn't condone such behavior against say.....Obama. My stance would not change one iota.
You know, in a lot of ways, I do get annoyed with the fact that I have to defend Trump as much as I do. It's not because I like him or voted for him. Plainly stated, the forces at play that would do such things are not healthy for our crumbling republic. A media we cannot trust AT ALL is also not good for our country. These are things that if allowed to fester will destroy us as a nation. So if punching back means I have to side with OMB from time to time, so be it.
