"The story of the FBI/DOJ slow walk of the probe debunks the GOP claim that the Department of Justice has been ā€œweaponized,ā€ to persecute Trump." Strongly disagree. The story of the FBI/DOJ slow walk shows how very effectively the Right Wing Grievance and Noise Machine works to deter media and law enforcement from treating Trump and the Republican Party according to the same standards other Americans and the Democratic Party are treated. It also shows that there is no amount of mollycoddling and bending over backwards that will stop them from screeching about their grievances---because they know it works.

ā€œI was very busy, as you’ve sort of seen.ā€ This is like when you ask your son, Why didn't you clean your room?" and he says, "I was busy" but you know all he has been doing is playing X-Box all day. Trump basically said, "I was too busy to respond to a federal subpoena. I was golfing, bitching about being an election loser, and watching TV."
