It’s too bad nobody can actually prosecute treason charges for superficially pro-POTUS but actually anti-Constitution actions.

Stupid or Evil?
I have been contemplating that Trump’s inaction on Covid19 is a means to an end
He knew that if the Pandemic raged and people lost their jobs it would throw the country into turmoil
He has succeeded by every metric and continues to add further grief with the dismantling of the postal system.
Now we have Ron Johnson attempting to pull a BENGHAZI
Losing the election means jail and if Cohen’s forward is any indication , he will do anything ANYTHING to maintain his grip on power.
Pure Evil
I am fucking scared

Andrew Bates, a Biden campaign spokesman, told TPM in a statement that “Johnson has directly participated in a foreign attack on our democracy.”

“This damning acknowledgment totally exposes that Ron Johnson’s disgraceful conduct is the definition of malfeasance,” Bates added. “It is beyond time for him to end this embarrassing and deeply unethical charade once and for all — as a number of his Senate Republican colleagues have long wanted.”

I’m telling you -this Andrew Bates guy is pretty solid. It’s almost unfair for him to punch down on the stupidest guy in the Senate, but I make exceptions for traitors.

Allegations?

According to sworn testimony in the impeachment hearings it is a fact. This is laundering Russian disinformation.

Trump needs this because if the election is decided on his past 4 years he has no chance. Johnson and Barr know this so we can expect it till Nov. 3. But it’s a rerun. We’ve seen it before in 2016. It won’t have the zip it had then.

All Biden has to do is stay clear on policy. If he can outshout Johnson and Barr he’s a shoo in.

Yeah it’s a bummer. They wasted all that tax payer money to manufacture an October surprise. Then this stupid fake pandemic came and drew everyone’s attention.
