Says it's a political problem probably not a legal problem. WTF?

His argument didn't make sense to me. I've heard others (Richard Painter)say it's treason. Toobin says it's ignorance? I've never seen him carry water for Trump before.

(3,194 posts)I don't know what he said, but he has a history of being one of the consistently left of center commentators.
Meanwhile, every day there's some new story that's supposedly HUGE!!! Yet still, it's a drip, drip, drip, with nothing happening yet.
So to criticize him, when I have yet to see something that is actually bringing this administration down, is short sighted. He could very well be right, and this will go nowhere. Everything has gone nowhere so far, and until I actually see some consequences for these FELONS, I'll reserve judgement that they will ever be held to account.
