The Sussman single, low level charge was and is an interesting opening gambit. Yes, we will have to endure fake news on how this blows the Durham investigation up. But they will never admit this trial was used to introduce the reality of the conspiracy into an official record. And, the distinct possibility this charge and trial was more about that, than wanting/needing a conviction.
Had he been convicted the FBI would be having a party. It would have given them plausible deniability. The conspiracy would be resting squarely on Hillary’s and the DNC’s shoulders. His acquittal implies the opposite, they knew who he represented and chose to engage in the conspiracy.
Interestingly, even if Sussman did not lie to the FBI, he still participated in a conspiracy to influence the 2016 Presidential election. Will he be charged with that in the future? Or, has he possibly already cut a deal on the more serious charges?
Thanks to u/MeanOMan for opening my mind to this perspective!
As always, only time will tell.
Durham didn't have to because this was the DEFENSE strategy.
Remember this... The BAD here was the FBI investigation being used to validate the Trump smear campaign by the MSM.
Durham goes to the FBI and the FBI creates "Plausible Deniability" by blaming Sussman for the investigation. This wasn't convincing enough for Baker to keep his job by the way, but criminally, it creates enough doubt.
So what do you do? They are lawyers, and they gamed the system.
Durham knows the complexity with getting a guilty verdict on Sussman, so you have to ask why he did it anyway?
I don't think public perception was 100% the reason. I don't think that getting testimony on record plays the big role either.
Could there be multi-factors? probably....
I'm personally leaning towards the following.... White hats obviously need some awakening before they can come forward as a shadow government.
Military Tribunals... Would the American people accept the use of Tribunals over our Justice system? I promise you, this will be how the swamp attack back... Calling Trump a tyrant and using unjust prosecution accusations to smear him in their attempt to maintain power.
I do see other paths, I'm not discounting them either. Maybe Durham has some other indictments in waiting, and he's just keeping the evidence that he will use with those close to chest.
at the moment though... I think it's all about AWAKENING on the path to DISCLOSURE...
The big DISCLOSURE of electronic cheating is coming up.... Does the evidence tie the FBI to it? Is the Sussman trial just part of a lead up to FBI corruption and disclosure of the stolen election and military tribunals to prosecute the criminals?
