How will it turn out? Are the GOP ready to pull out their knives? I wonder if the internal polling is horrible.

But, doesn't that seem a fairly feeble retort then?

Because the "before" hasn't stopped PINO from continuing to insult the JoD community, the FBI, et al.

PINO isn't saying "the FBI used to be corrupt and untrustworthy". He's saying it in the present tense.
