Trump and his toadies like Patel and Gabbard are about a week away from claiming Durham was a "extreme leftist
"

Bartiromo will lead with the "Russia hoax" today.

Or like Clausewitz you're planning for posthumous publication.

Preparing an alibi for when his bumbling incompetence causes the economy to crash. In typical juvenile fashion.

He'll probably blame Obama.
