That the GOP is getting involved in a criminal investigation is ridiculous. Sounds like the pundits are seeing right through the BS.
Gergen is pretty level headed and says the memo has no credibility.

If the punditry are seeing through this, but anyone in authority who could stop it has signed-on to the Trump cause, the former matters little, doesn't it?

Which is TRUE.

Gergen merits listening to because of his service directly to Repub and Dem presidents.

(1,353 posts)He seemed visibly angry just now. Was also saying that during watergate, the GOP behaved like they should have: put country before party, and now the opposite. My guess is that a bunch of GOP are more than involved in this...beyond just complicent. They knew this shit was going on and did nothing.

(1,835 posts)I saw it posted from someone on Twitter, can't remember exactly who, but someone famous enough to have hundreds of comments to his thread posting this about Gergen. Very bizarre behaviour on Gergen's part. I'll try to find the exact twitter post once I have more time and am not at work for ya!
