The problem was Garland's pyramid strategy where he only investigated the unwashed Magats who invaded the Capitol.

Garland waited 12 to 16 months to investigate Trump and his inner circle. Can I prove that DOJ wasn't doing a secret Trump investigation in 2021? No I can't, but you can't prove that it was.

Robert Mueller in 22 months indicted, got guilty pleas, and convicted 34 people, some of whom were Trump lawyers, some of whom were close friends of Trump and he did so with Magat Attorney Generals obstructing him. Garland also in that time frame laid out the evidence to indict Trump for obstruction of justice and campaign finance violations. Garland laid out the evidence, it was already there and Garland passed.

Garland could indict Trump today but his actual trial will never happen for 3 or 4 years IMO. DOJ is free to keep investigating Trump during that period. I listened to numerous experts make the claim that there is enough evidence right now to indict Trump for obstruction of justice in the classified documents theft, that crime carries a 20 year sentence.

The Iowa caucus is this January, will an institutionalist have DOJ go quiet at that point when Donald Trump will be the leading Magat candidate for president?
