This may not have been the primary purpose of the Raid but is sure as hell looking like it will be a big bonus for the Democrats. And the Republicans, idiots that they can sometimes be, are already getting sucked in. Watch the Democrats milk this for all it is worth and the Republicans get all lathered up and chase the wrong rabbit. Trump is not running for ANYTHING in 2022. Don't talk about the Raid and Trump. He is now a distraction. Anyone running for office in 2022 should shut up about Trump. All the talk should be Biden, Biden, Biden. The Right leaning pundits should quit talking about the Raid also. The goal of the Dems is to have every Republican running in 2022 talk about Trump, Trump, Trump for the simple reason that this takes the heat off Biden. If the Republicans yak about Trump for the next three months then the Democrats run their 2022 election against Trump and Biden is hardly mentioned - a sure recipe for disaster.

Amazing how Democrats are still focused on Trump because their Candidate is Deceiving Needy Citizens.DNC . They have been chasing their tails since November 3 , 2016 and nothing. They should consider a higher power is in charge (God). No one including Democrats Are Above God’s Laws.

". . . a way for Democrats to shift the focus . . ." Is there anyone who does NOT think that's at least part of the plan?

It's not a conspiracy if they're telling you what they're doing, and they are, they always have, from admitting they "loathe the military" to calling you deplorable, to telling you, Marty Feldman-like, "what hump [raid/grooming/ban/assault/cancellation/tax/insult/racist slur]?" while they do that dog thing to your leg, or just tell you it's raining and it's your fault.

It is important that Republicans not get caught up in the raid mania and support Trump without thinking. I would still vote for him against any Dem if he became the presidential nominee, but there are better choices available for the nomination.

Smart people could simultaneously condemn the one, while keeping the focus on the most important of the two, Biden and his horrible policies affecting the economy. I have never noticed that republicans are particularly smart when it comes to making the best decision.

Excellent point, same as Benghazi and other Hillary crimes disappearing from the Mega-Sh*t Media.

So a Bill Clinton wag the dog move?

With the willing media I can see Ron Klain thinking of a way to keep Donald Trump in the forefront of the news cycle. Several weeks ago I was in the DC area, every day above the fold on the WaPo were 2 stories about Trump and one about how Biden is just a victim of circumstance. That was the height of the Jan 6 theater.

So, a conspiracy, or just stupid?

The collective liberal orgasm will fade to coitus interrupts when this ultimately goes no where, as it did for Trumpers with Hillary.

There really is no way keep going after Trump and it not look political. They got their 2 impeachments.
