Interesting.

Let's analyse that move.

There are several camps. Of course the white hats around Trump and the black hats.

But the black hats are not one big uniform mass. There are several interests dividing it. Hence, you see moves that look like white hat but are not.

The second consideration in any play, is what Q mentioned: Zugzwang. The black hats have to play a move. They must. Panic in DC is not just a phrase. It is real.

Example: if that guy wins, we will all hang from noses. It is existential.

Third thing to consider is that the currency in DC is blackmail: duress. It knows two sides. One the one hand we have the benefits of working with the DS: money, career, sex fantasies, trophy wife, that sort of thing. Give them what they want. On the other hand there is the threat of non-compliance. As Allan-Parson's Project with the song "turn of a friendly card" so succinctly put: And a pilgrim must follow
In search of a shrine. As he enters inside the cathedral.

How does that relate to Jack Smith? They dusted this loser off since his banishment to the Netherlands to try this case. This is his ticket home. When he pulls it off, he is celebrated, if he doesn't, well, he is expendable.

Ammo, Q said, is hard to come by. And in Trump's case, it is. A man investigated more than anyone in history. Every step he ever made was put under a magnifying glass. Certain things they can touch, others they cannot. The reason is that such untouchable cases would expose them even more.

And this leads into Zugzwang. They have to stop him by any means. They have already tried numerous times. Missiles, wrap up, political maneuvers in the dark, anything. Nothing sticks.

All they have is the narrative and the MSM, their bull horn.

Q posted a meme: stay with me, deplorable, you will love how this ends.
