WALLACE: Number one, that these are very, very different cases. There are a lot of distinctions between the Biden documents and the obstruction of justice that Donald Trump engaged in, but also you need to hold the other idea in your head that this is not helpful to the Biden White House. This is a – that is blow to the prosecution, and it’s going to be an ongoing political headache for Joe Biden because we know that Trump world and the Republicans, you know, flourish in the – in the – you know, in the age of whataboutism, and this hands them a whataboutism on a silver matter, and they will exploit this because one thing we’ve learned is nuance is one of the first things that gets lost. Distinctions can be blown over in this modern media age, so this is an unfortunate development for the Biden White House and it is an unfortunate development I think for people who are thinking that the prosecution of Donald Trump – for what happened at Mar-a-Lago was a slam dunk. I mean, there’s other prosecutions out there, but, again, we need to remember that this is not earth 1 where life is fair and decisions are made calmly and reasonably with all of these distinctions. We live on Earth 2.0.
