Someone on the TV- not big screen- reported that sources allege that it was McCabe who wanted to record trump and that Rosenstein was pushing back against it by saying "so what do you want to do then, have me wired" as a way of pushing back at it as an outlandish idea.
Of course, I have no frigging idea what happened. And I dont really need to know. I think it is just one more area where the rats are struggling to survive by blaming their buddies.
And how can that be a bad thing???
Giddy-up!!!!
And yes "sources allege" is always a crock alert, but it does stir the pot in ways that make the rats try to position themselves. Rosenstein knows that he is the consummate survivor. He is and has been the very epicenter of the swamp-at least the DOJ part of it but has always survived. He knows that Trump can't fire him without a heavy price so he has that to protect him. Where he is beginning to sweat though is that McCabe is struggling hard to avoid prosecution and will try to take both Comey and Rosenstein down if needed to protect himself. In addition, although he is protected from immediate firing by Trump, he also knows that after the election -possibly as late as the first of next year- Sessions will be gone, and the new AG will move Rosenstein out. So Mr. Smug Rosenstein continues to be smug as always. But he is also beginning to sweat more than ever. Note that I did not even mention the texts and emails that Trump just declassified. You think that will help or hurt Rosenstein? Those who used their brain to answer that question came up with the right answer. Those who got their answer in a signal from the Mothership- not so much.
MORE TO COME.
