And when it does, that ball ain't stopping until Trump is out of office.

They tried to coerce MTG, Bobo, and Mace and struck out. The discharge petition has the signatures, which also means there are enough votes to pass. It is going to pass. The vote itself is just a formality, albeit a necessary one.

So how to cope? How to avoid that psychic pain of being dominated, of losing? By adopting the winning position, of course. Now, ta-da!, he isn't a loser. He's a winner! He won! He won! See!? Not like some losing loser who loses. No, a winner! A winner who won!

Allows him to get ahead of the whole debacle. As if releasing the files was his idea all along.

There's long standing DOJ rules that docs that are part of an ongoing investigation cannot be released.

Trump doesn't want them released. Certainly not everything.
