Chris Christie, Mike Pence, and the emails. [View all]

Last edited Sun Dec 17, 2017, 08:26 AM - Edit history (1)

They both, at different times, headed the transition team. How is it possible for either of them to have been out of the loop? I don't see how either of them avoided not getting caught up in the hubris and manage to not get sloppy. I never believed for a moment that Pence, at the very least, didn't know what was going on. The emails are going to ensnare them.

Not only that, several republican congressmen who were on the transition team must know they are in serious trouble. This now puts the apoplectic behavior we are witnessing on television into context.

The hysteria that must be going on at this moment must be epic. These people are going to shift into survival mode and start to turn on each other.

And don't forget Campaign Chairwoman Kellyanne Conway. Mueller must have a file on her three feet thick.

Trump can't make this go away. Dan Rather is right, Trump is a cornered animal.

It is only a matter of time before some of these emails are made public. They are going to shake this country to the core.
