Anyone else here getting the feeling that Blanche set Bondi up?

Just my not-very-well-tuned Spidey Sense is starting to make noise in my political brain..

Anybody else?

It's hard to set a trap when you aren't able to think your way out of a paper bag.

I don't think he's smart enough to pull it off.

We predicted this in 2024, intimating that Thiel and Vance already saw their chances as soon as Vance was nominated for the VP slot:

And it's bad, bad J.D. Vance
He'll take over given half the chance
Badder than old King Kong
Meaner than a right wing blog

But I think Blanche maneuvered her into that Congressional witness chair, and in such a way that she could ONLY look as vile as she really is.

I think he lined her up for the shiv.
Not because he's necessarily 'smart', but because trump has FINALLY found his new Roy Cohn.

Would be if he played it straight and released the files now in full accordance with the law.

I don't see how it helps him to set up Bondi to take a fall while he is continuing the same subterfuge.

Her taking the hit on botching the filed was just the venue he used to get her out. I say that because when she testified 10 days ago, she very specifically said that BLANCE was the one who oversaw both the botched reactions AND the overall release.
