For years we kept hearing that Merrick Garland was a meticulous prosecutor who was making sure that the DOJ was building a solid case against Trump. People actually believed it even though there was clearly no action taking place in the department. Then it turned out that Garland was simply running out the clock, hoping to end his term with no actual action.
Jeffries is behind that eightball. I don't think we should give him the benefit of the doubt that he is actually holding back right now because he wants to dot the i's and cross the t's. The onus is on him to show us that he is indeed on top of things.
Maybe not fair but we would be foolish to assume "he's building a solid case" when it comes to another Democrat until and unless there is some action on the ground that qwe can see.
