Obama's signature talent as president was to see beyond the 24 hour news cycle. He thought in terms if years and decades. His reforms weren't designed to feed the maw of cable news, but change the trajectory of American history.
The GOP is about to beclown themselves in defense of a man who wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. They are going to put themselves down in the historical record as believing that the real crime was that the FBI investigated Trump in the first place. That Barr's summary was accurate, when Mueller says it was not. Barr is testifying first, and Mueller will testify later, which makes you wonder, again, if they are looking at the long term implications of saddling themselves to a serial liar and his pack of cronies.
The GOP doesn't have a Trump problem. Trump IS the GOP.
