A question about the Attorney General [View all]

Does anyone else wonder if AG Garland wishes he never took the job?

The Trump investigations are taking far too long. Now there has to be a Biden investigation. Mr. Garland sure appointed an SC pretty fast compared to Trump. Why is that? Why did it take the DOJ so long to play hardball (such as it was) with Trump?

I’m willing to bet that this overly-cautious man sometimes looks in the mirror and thinks, “What have I gotten myself into?!”

I really wonder if he’s really got the guts— and evidence— to go after Trump and his lieutenants.
