Back when that McCabe story dropped I got on the Times about doing anything for a headline and how that attitude put Rosenstein in real danger. That seems to be the point where his true survival instinct kicked in. It's actually pretty amazing he was able to save both his job and the Mueller investigation after NYT blew up his spot.
The media has been complicit in every step of the way regarding Trump, from 2015 until now. They've made so many mistakes in how they handle Trump, covering the investigation etc and no one really gives them the scrutiny they deserve because Trump hates them so automatically we need to take whatever position opposite his but fukk that, discussing the culpability of the MSM (yes, you too Fox News) in aiding and abetting Trump is one of many conversations needing to be had in a post Trump world, whenever that day comes.
RR is a weasel but fukk it, look out for number one, there is no glory in being a hero, you'll just be strangled with your own cape while the news media tries to report about the skidmarks in your underwear.
