    The bonus of pushing thru Kav w/an obviously inadequate FBI review, for Trump, is it further discredits the FBI as an jnstitution.

        And the additional bonus for Trump of pushing through Kavanaugh is that it also discredits the Supreme Court as an institution.

        Two wins for the man that @foxandfriends are trying to say is God. They said Kavanaugh was like Jesus on the cross. This channel is deeply disturbing. Blasphemy to promote a CON MAN. Where have we seen that before....Jim Jones? Careful of the Kool-Aid he’s serving.

        Interesting point. If pattern holds, then, in a year he'll be saying Muller needs to be fired because of how badly the FBI botched the Kavanaugh investigation.

        All those tweets from Democratic senators about how the FBI review was "a sham" are going to have a rich second life in the coming months.

        Oddly enough, it might give the FBI some legitimacy in the eyes of Trump’s base, whereas thinking people know it was hamstrung. So it could backfire on Trump.

        "It could backfire on Trump." Bigly, actually. It now provides direct evidence of consistent efforts to obstruct & hinder investigations, in addition to intentional misuse of the power of the office. He literally served that to the FBI on a platter. #MuellerTime

        Trump knows this. He wins whichever way this goes. Likewise if Kavanaugh is rejected he will use it to support the deep state plot narrative.

        Was thinking this since hearing about the constraints on the investigation. This is an enormous benefit to this process

        I actually think that’s why he’s had a Cheshire Cat smile all week. He knows that he just kicked the FBI in the balls just as the Mueller investigation is reaching a crescendo

        How do we know that it's inadequate? We haven't seen it. In fact, no one we count on to know what's in it has been able to read even a significant part of it. We simply don't know. We're not allowed to know.
