Ethics don't matter.
He’s right. Ethics don’t matter to Republicans as long as voters don’t care.
And Republicans are never going to try to win by being ethical. They’re going to try to win by portraying their opponents as less ethical.
House Democrats say they'll do anything it takes to force the public release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report — except for the single-most hardball tactic deployed by Republicans only one year ago.
Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee last year mounted an unprecedented campaign to force the public release of classified intelligence. Democrats called the effort reckless and misleading, and the FBI said it presented "grave concerns" for national security. But Trump blessed the maneuver and ultimately declassified the material Republicans revealed in the so-called "Nunes Memo."
Top House Democrats and aides have also said they're ready to embrace other GOP tactics they once questioned in order to access Mueller's findings. Senior Democratic aides have spent weeks emphasizing that Republicans gained unusual levels of access to Mueller-related files by squeezing and threatening legal action against the Trump Justice Department. Ultimately, the Justice Department capitulated to GOP demands — and now Democrats say they expect the same level of access to information that Republicans got.
"The DOJ and the FBI turned over thousands of pages or made available thousands of pages related to the ongoing Russia investigation that special counsel Mueller had inherited," a House Democratic aide said Friday. "It wasn’t only in a closed investigation. It was an open, ongoing investigation that the DOJ was conducting at the time."
Trump changes tune on public release of Mueller report

Except polling shows only the rubes are buying it. Maybe that's all they care about at this point, but it does look like it didn't work as well as they hoped even with an assist from the librul media.
LOL. You could see that coming from a mile away. Having said that, it's just another sign that the GOP does know their messaging. Release Barr's summary first, watch all the media (including the "librul msm") buy into it and act as if it's the full report. Make some vague promises that you're in favor of releasing the entire Mueller Report "soon." Democrats deflate and fumble around for a response. Then, several days later, announce that Barr will release an "edited and redacted" version of the report but not the whole thing, because of security concerns, etc. Then, sometime later finally admit that you're not going to release the entire report, ever, not even to Congress. And by the time Congressional Dems come up with a forceful response and demand to see the whole report, all most people will remember is the Barr summary exonerating Trump of pretty much everything. They are good at this kind of stuff, no doubt.
If the redactions are truly about national security, why can’t a bipartisan panel do it?
Totally didn’t see this blowing up in Trump/Republicans face.
