I think it's a good thing Trump isn't releasing the Democratic memo

It keeps it in the news, exposes his hypocrisy because he released the Republican one, and makes it look like him and the Republicans are hiding something which they are.

I don’t think the actual details of our memo will shift the debate any.

Trump has access to and the right to release the FISA application. He can redact anything classified. Then there would be no need for memos about it, we could just see it. Congress has asked Trump to release it but he has refused. If it was just as Nunes said Trump would have released it long ago. Obviously there is evidence there about a crime which is not just what is in the Steele Memo.

The message is that the GOP pushed their message out but won't let the Dems do the same. It makes them look pretty bad.

Because Trump will do something outrageous to get it out of the news.

What will keep it in the news is it either being leaked, or released publicly on the House floor.
