Democrats say Special Prosecutor Robert Hur used “gratuitous” words in his report. He did not have to characterize Joe Biden’s memory in such harsh terms. Democrats dispute the characterization. They claim Hur is a Trump Republican who intends to undermine Joe Biden.
Truthful reporters would point out two things.
First, Attorney General Merrick Garland publicly released the report, which he did not have to do. Hur did not publicly release the report. Joe Biden’s Attorney General released it.
Second, Hur made those statements to explain why, though he believes Joe Biden broke the law, he is choosing not to prosecute Joe Biden. He does not believe a jury would find Joe Biden mentally competent to stand trial, so he will not waste taxpayer dollars prosecuting Biden.
Republicans, who intend to push the issue of Biden’s memory, need to keep up one common refrain — release the transcript.
Joe Biden, his lawyer, and those around him refuse to agree to release the transcript. They wish to characterize the conversations with Mr. Hur, but they do not want us to see Mr. Hur.
Every Republican pundit, analyst, and politician should, at every opportunity, demand Joe Biden's consent to release the transcript. It is the easiest way to let the public see for themselves.
Do the Democrats not trust the public? Do they think the public cannot read and understand the issue for themselves? They must not trust the public. They want to tell the public Hur has mischaracterized Biden. But they could let the public see for themselves.
It would be political malpractice if the GOP does not constantly and consistently demand Joe Biden's consent to release the transcript so the American people themselves can see for themselves if Biden was incoherent and troublingly forgetful.
Release the transcript.
Good replies to the events occurring. You all are polite and thinking things out.

Erick,
I have found that using the words
( End All ) without the parentheses literally ends all GOP messages.
Hooray!
