Occam's Razor

Nicolle Wallace asked yesterday, why people who worked in the Trump administration aren't coming forward to warn the country about Trump.

I shouted at the TV, Occam's Razor;

Benedict Donald wants everyone to fear him and frankly it is working. There are brave people who have come forward, but they still fear him.

One day after Trump was issued a partial gag order he attacked judge Merchan and his daughter. He attacked Tish James by threatening to prosecute her. (Maybe Tish doesn't fear him, she is fearless)

Trump threatens anyone and everyone, prosecutors, Attorney Generals, judges, witnesses against him, prospective jurors, anyone who even looks crooked at him gets threatened.

Benedict Donald is treated with kid gloves because people fear him, fear is Trump's strategy.

I am not a doom and gloomer, the Alvin Bragg trial can crack his shell, bust up his armor, he needs to be convicted pre-election. Remember, Trump posted a picture of himself holding a ball bat next to Bragg's head.

Once Trump is exposed as a fraud, as a petty criminal, as an emperor with no clothes, he will self-destruct in rapid fashion.

Go get em Alvin.

...."Benedict Donald wants everyone to fear him and frankly it is working".

But these are FORMER Trump people so Trump doesn't have any power over them.

Unless you're suggesting they'd be physically threatened, which throws Occam's Razor out the window. There have been no serious threats to anyone who's turned against Trump since he left office.

Consider all the Trump Admin people who HAVE come out against him (up to VP Pence). They don't seem to be worried.

that they are not taking up the side against him. Even though they will say that anyway.
Trying to be impartial so to speak. Kirschner said the same thing but more eloquently..

I think the law could have nailed him a while ago but does not want to seem partial to getting rid of him.. Give him enough rope and he will hang himself..
My thoughts.

If you’ve never stood up to the folks on the right, then you have no idea of what they are capable of.

Hate is a glue for these people and being directed to hurt you is an honor.

And right now, Trump is the king of these people.
