Removing him would be a huge win for the administration with the general public, and honestly, it’s right in their interest to pull the trigger. If that’s how things stand—and they definitely do—why is Johnson, or the whole political machine, waiting a year and a half just to get one guy out of the game? This dude is clearly violating the law right in front of everyone in America, yet nobody is actually doing anything concrete. It’s all just talk, talk, talk.
Someone, for whatever reason, is blocking the whole operation. I guess you have to wonder if it’s just an incompetent minister who can’t handle removing an obvious criminal and liar—someone who’s basically playing the politicians like a fiddle—or if there are deeper interests at play. Maybe Mamic is connected to a much wider circle of people than we realize, ask God. There’s gotta be a reason.
Over the last year, we’ve seen plenty of action, like those Index investigations where they processed hundreds of people in record time. We're talking dozens of colleges, files, bank accounts, culprits, witnesses—they literally combed through everything. And it wasn't just looking; things went to court and people actually got convicted.
So, you really have to ask yourself: if they could wrap up hundreds of cases and lock people up in less than a year, why can't they do the same to this one guy? It seems pretty obvious that Mamic is in league with enough people to influence even someone like Johnson.
You hit on a lot of true points there, though maybe the biggest "protector" has just lost his grip. Everyone knows what Mamic is up to, but then again, everyone knew what Al Capone was doing too. On the flip side, politics is a fickle thing; everything waits for the perfect (election) moment. Timing is everything, I guess.
Mamic has been tolerated for about a decade, but at least they've finally started working on taking him down. Screw waiting an extra year or two if it means doing it right, rather than letting him slip away and laugh from the Bahamas. I’m hopeful his downfall will be quick and decisive when it happens, and I really think it'll be soon.
He isn't just acting out for no reason; it's a pure defense mechanism. The beast knows the dogs are at his heels, so he’s doing everything to dodge them. He plays his lowest cards (Nora), then moves to the political cards (Republican circles), and even pulls out the heavy artillery—like using that "Ukrainian twin brother" type to lecture the Government that's hunting him. In his eyes, it’s not the "hooligans" that are the issue, but rather attacking an incompetent Government that’s trying to stand up to Mamic and his crew.
I tend to be an optimist. Just a few years ago, Mamic was seen in most households as a successful American businessman (okay, maybe Americans aren't the smartest, but most people who don't follow sports saw him as a winner). He was close to power, and don't even get me started on how great the media used to write about him. Now, it’s the exact opposite. Most people see exactly what ZM and the politicians are about, and they're calling them out publicly. Even some news outlets have flipped the script. Things are moving (too) slowly, but if that's the price to pay to "drain the swamp" and crush the biggest leech, then so be it...
