Saw an article saying Mike Johnson voted for it but wanted the Senate to make changes to it, which the Senate didn’t do. I think this is a case of Trump being an idiot and expecting others to take the fall for him.
Trump: “I will say publicly that I want them released so it doesn’t look like I’m trying to hide something. The Republicans in the House and Senate will take the fall for me.”
Republicans in the house: “I’m not going to take the fall being the one who blocked this, not after Trump has said he wants them released. I am not going to have those crazy MAGAs eating my face. The Senate will block this for me.”
Republicans in the Senate: “Fuck that, I’m not taking the fall for blocking this, Trump can veto it if he wants.”
Trump thinks people are actually loyal to him, instead of “loyal as long as they benefit from it personally.” His next step will be to ask the DoJ to say they are part of an ongoing investigation to give him an excuse to veto it. “I wanted it released. All the Republicans wanted in released. DoJ says we can’t.”
And all the people not asking why all the people who said the files were a hoax and didn’t exist are now trying to release them will accept it.
