"They must justify raiding an ex-president's home. If they don't have the goods, if they haven't absolutely nailed it, they have made one of the most disastrous mistakes of all. What I fear is that if this raid turns out to be a red herring, it rallies Republicans across the party to defend Trump. It makes Trump a martyr. Once again, he will be seen as such a threat to the Deep State and the Swamp that the career bureaucrats who run our institutions will stop at nothing to try and destroy him. And that, ladies and gentlemen, will be President Trump's next stump speech."(Meghan McCain)
