1) I've been ruminating on the Daniel Radcliffe withdrawal from consideration for the DNI position.

I've disappointed in him. He cited the "tough confirmation fight" in the few snippets about it I've read.

So? Did Brett Kavanaugh slink away in the face of what he suffered?

2) Ratcliffe did a nice job exposing Mueller.

I don't know a ton about him in general, but I know he ran from a fight, and where I grew up you don't do that.

He probably saw what Kavanaugh went thru and expected a similar debacle.

I can understand, but it's not honorable.

3) We are a movement of truth defeating the evil pervading our world.

We need men and women of character to endure hardship so that we can press this rightful agenda forward and succeed. He ran for Congress and got elected. He signed up to fight for us.

Not so much, I guess.

4) If you want a window in to why we all feel this "plan" is taking WAY too long, it's men like Radcliffe.

The man who cowered in the face of a tough fight.

Or a man with something to hide.

Either way, it does not reflect well.

5) Regarding the "Scaramucci model" in relation to Radcliffe.

I've trouble understanding why he'd take a dent to his reputation by withdrawing.

Same way I have trouble understanding how Scaramucci ended up in a divorce over his decision to join the administration for 11 days.

6) They "patched it up" (which must have also been part of the plan) -every setback is part of the plan.

My take? Radcliffe chickened out. Kavanaugh didn't.

I have my answer as to whose a patriot willing to fight for his ideas. Radcliffe just smells like another Trey Gowdy now.

Sorry, I mean John Ratcliffe, not the Harry Potter kid.

I got hosed by autocorrect.
