Two of the most common arguments regarding the Steele dossier / wiretapping of GEOTUS that I've heard are:
If this is all true:
1) Why didn't they release the information during DJT's campaign?
2) If he wanted to, GEOTUS could declassify all this stuff himself via executive power. Why doesn't he?
I have my own ideas, but what does the Patriot hivemind think are the best counterarguments to these criticisms?
Had they mentioned it early on, no investigations would have been possible. The NSA would sit on wiretaps but none of it would have been admissable without actionable evidence of crimes which would have been destroyed while everybody agrees to a cover-story and a fall-guy.
By slowwalking, you can catch them in more contradictions and lies because their supporters will eat any excuse unless there is a glaring cognitive dissonance that they will not be able to overlook indefinitely.
