I originally agreed with you.

But the legal experts on MSNBC kept being puzzled why Jack would not take action.
He had more than enough evidence that Cannon was a bad actor and needed
to be taken off the case. Her superiors had taken her off cases before for the same reason.
So it was a slam dunk. The legal experts didn't get it.

So then I knew Jack was slow walking this thing on purpose,
which seemed shocking at the time.

But at this point, we know that the American judiciary just doesn't give a damn
about the installation of a fascist government.

I also know some federal workers. They are accountants.
They make an excellent salary.

They just retired and their pensions are higher than their salary when they were working!
Top of the line healthcare and perks. They live a very good life. They will never worry about money for the rest of their lives.

So I think many of the turncoats don't necessarily agree with Trump but
they don't want to lose their sweet deal.
