I’m still in the Garland is useless camp. He could’ve prosecuted Trump ten times over based on Mueller. Mueller interviewed 500 witnesses and subpoenad 2500 documents, yet Garland chose to go with the ridiculous assertion that the evidence wasn’t enough. The Daniels bribe indictment even named Trump, and nothing from Garland, not even a mention. Anyway it’s already too late, so much damage has been done it’ll take decades to reverse. Color me nonplussed. Aside from the fact that wasn’t Giuliani and Eastman and Gaetz and others raided many months, even a year, ago? And crickets.

Garland is what we have. You go to war with the soldiers you have. Mueller disappointed too remember. We have been chomping at the bit about Trump from day one, in disbelief that he was not somehow taken out of office. Over and again there has been reticence because this could boomerang on the Democrats and a very careful line had to be walked. Past tense now. That Garland has been reticent, despite our impatience and the clock ticking politically, has served to legitimate him in many eyes. There are those, though, who will claim this is political regardless and those who complain about Garland ( me too). Biden has been staying out of this mostly, trying to move us forward as much as possible. The damage done is not Garland's to reverse in a day or even months. We used to say, everything happens the way it's supposed to happen... go figure, but it relaxes one.
