Oh he’s definitely in a delicate position, considering that Speaker Pelosi will most definitely throw that ass under the bus with justified fury if the only result of these hearings is that some of the 30ish seats she’s been focused on winning end up going GOP instead.

Anyways yes of course there’re plenty of politically expedient ways to answer Tapper’s question but they all start with a variant on “Yes I believe so, however...”. It’s the fact that he DIDNT do this is what I found remarkable.

Not sure why that makes me a secret GOP double agent or whatever you were implying up there but that was really weird and overly defensive.

FYI Schiff is a warmongering neoliberal balls deep in the MIC - at least that’s his day job when he’s not grandstanding as the people’s champ in a doomed impeachment hearing. Not a fan tbh
