A game of chess being played. Clinton: “Check.”

Yes...and Trump should stick with Chutes and Ladders.

This piece nails it: “release everything” wasn’t a gamble, it was a forcing mechanism. By shifting focus from the contents to the refusal, it reframed transparency as a test of power—and the refusal failed it.

Trump will still be feeling the sting from this one when his name is ripped down from The Kennedy Center.

This was Clinton tearing off the bandage,then sat back to see who was first in line to administer the First Aid ⛑️ Looked like DonOld gave himself a Bad Infection, judging by all of the horrible post's over Christmas‼️😫 Good article, spot on, Jack, thank you and will reStack ASAP 🙏

That’s a sharp way to put it, Karen...and you’re seeing the same sequence I am.

Once the bandage came off...the real tell wasn’t the wound. It was who rushed in to stop the bleeding...and how panicked that response looked.

When reactions get erratic and loud...it’s usually because leverage just shifted.

I appreciate you reading it that closely...and thank you for the reStack. That kind of signal matters more than people realize.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out for drumpf. I think with this and his mental condition he's going to have a hard time covering all this.

That can't happen too soon for me, as I view as almost sacrilegious.

Clinton Has more brains in his little finger than drumpf in his entire body.

Clinton & his advisors know the chess like power game far far better than the 47-Git's Situation Normal-ALL F-ed Up crew!

This was a great explanation for those of us not in the high stakes of politics. My wish is that somehow all this helps bring down the racist regime somehow. As you said drumpf level of games is shuts and ladders and definitely not cheese..it requires too much patience.

Not Chess, but maybe tennis. Clinton puts a nice slow lob over the net with a little spin, and trump just didn't have the reach to get to it in time.

Did the mother load become found before or after Clinton made his statement? If there is a million documents, upwards of 2,000 evidence boxes, plus photos and videos, the number of files presented so far is somewhere in the "hundreds of thousands," according to CNN.

I do wonder why trump didn't just burn them. Yes, I know that would be a supremely stupid thing to do, which is why I wonder why they didn't.
