Sure. One can talk it down. Trump was safe. The problem is that the procedure was insane, and it has now been highlighted that FBI are corrupt, and are swaggering around with their 007 licenses, pretending that the American public is fair game. Pew Pew.

THAT is the problem.

Trump is going to come up smelling like roses. The FBI? They should be disbanded IMO. One even wonders about the greatest FBI mission ever, of catching Al Capone. Apparently Capone was a huge benefactor to the community (As Family firm guys are want to do), and the FBI got him on tax dodges. One wonders how much of the story is true?

But, I don't think that the FBI disbanding will happen: maybe a re-structure is on the cards. Maybe they will have to change their name too. No-one wants the FBI now. Definitely Garland is goneburger. Trump says there are plenty of good people in the FBI, just some really rotten apples that need removing.

To follow Russia's example (they suffered an unholy amount of oligarchical corruption in the nineties, as the US is now), it was to remove the corruption in increments, because burning the whole place down was not an option: The first thing Putin did was to not allow oligarchs into governing positions. Maybe USA needs a bit of that: Lobbying = illegal. Overseas PACS = illegal. Proxy war = illegal. Insider trading? Definitely illegal. I can hear the Oy veys.

BTW the Western sanctions, aimed at taking yachts and houses from Russians (because Russia bad) was a beautiful gift for Putin, as it clobbered the oligarchs in his long term plan to remove the corruption. LOL. Oh and it forced said oligarchs to invest in Russia. Now the economy is booming.
