I almost feel like, if true, this is one of those things that is so over the top blatant that for some reason it won't really be perused. Especially considering it says it's not clear whether or not Trump asked directly. That seems to have constantly been his get out jail card. "Oh yeah the administration is committing mass illegal activities, but Trump didn't directly order them!" And then it just fades away.
Insanely frustrating and makes no sense in the grand scheme of things nearly all of the time, but that's been the story of this admin. And why the Ukraine shit is the one thing that's actually finally fucking with him, because there's actual proof from the White House itself no less that he directly requested.
I also think part of it is stuff like this is so incredibly blatant that it has the potential to almost just sound fake to the general public, even if it's 100% true. That's why these threads aren't perused as much. Because it's so fucking stupid that it almost makes the accusers seem as though they're pushing conspiracies or some shit. If that makes any sense.
God the world is so fucking backwards these days.
