This isn't a spur of the moment idea by Brezinski. It's part of a greater plan to take away POTUS's rallies and SM megaphone.
TPTB neds to take away any indication POTUS is popular so they can juice the polls to justify a Biden win.
This needs to be blown up by exposing the flunkies like Rice, Power, Bernie & Brezinski who will roll on who ever is giving them marching orders once the heat is applied.
It's going to go hot pretty soon, no other way out. They're going to free Gen Flynn via an appeal and let he and Ratcliffe handle the DECLAS.
My opinion.
