41. why does it have to be 'flipping on Trump' to have value

..in linking him to their activities.

You have no idea what communications and other evidence they've obtained from the perps and how those fit into their prosecution.

This is such a ridiculously narrow view of how this prosecution or any other works. They don't do it in front of you before the trial, every lead they obtain isn't necessarily definitive alone but can be key, nonetheless - and this one isn't nearly over.

You really must have stopped reading at the edge of your own interest. I'm not able to take the time it requires to explain to you just how much you're leaving out. I don't have the energy or interest.
