wilwheaton:“Trump’s rage over the anonymity of the whistleblower may seem excessive, but it has its own logic. Anonymity means Trump can’t give the person an insulting nickname, can’t call him or her ugly or fat, can’t use his surrogates to smear and intimidate. He can’t make it personal.

THAT is why he’s so frustrated. His foe’s anonymity disarms him.”https://mobile.twitter.com/jaysbookman/status/1182782133737328640 -- source link
