Steve Schmidt on Nunes and Ryan

[question everything]

[Trust Buster]

1. Excellent analysis.

[madaboutharry]

2. I believe that Ryan is compromised.

I think Ryan is in some way caught up in something Russia.

3. As is McConnell. It's

very concerning that nothing fazes them.

5. i don't know. i think he is just a cold unfeeling asshole

and a huge giant coward .

4. When he speaks, it reminds me of my mother's lectures

if mom was mad at you, you knew immediately because of her silence. Then, at an appropriate time, you'd get blasted. She was fair and brilliant and her lectures (as we called them) were articulate and blistering. Steve seems to plan out what he's going to say in advance, if only by a few minutes, and if Ryan's mother had done the same, Ryan would see this and fire Nunes pronto.

I want Steve to have his own show. I love that Nicolle gets him quite often, in fact, I think her "guests" are the best on TV.

6. They'd still go back to Bush or settle for Pence.
