They will bring in the experts .. they will psychoanalyze this up and down, backward and forward. Every angle will be put forth and all their talking heads will have earned their big bucks. Everybody will be patting each other on the back saying job well done. And let's not forget who will be on top of the ratings. What a great news week .. oh shit, now back to gun control, back to chained CPI, back to cutting our Social Security .. you get the drift. Such great entertainment.
