it's hard for a law school graduate to sound stupider than matthew whitaker, but when matthew whitaker spent his first full day yesterday sitting in the attorney general's office surrounded by the highest powered prosecutors in the world and experienced high ranking fbi officials his ego must have shrunk a bit. he must have felt a bit less confident about the blustery nonsense he has spewed on television as a pundit when he was actually using television to audition for a job with president trump. this is matthew whitaker's dirty harry moment. it's that line that clint eastwood made so famous when he confronted criminals in that movie. clint eastwood's dirty harry said, you've got to ask yourself one question, do i feel lucky? so matthew whitaker has to ask himself, do i feel lucky? and matthew whitaker is sitting in that room with federal prosecutors and fbi agents who regard him as a suspect. does he feel lucky? because you would have to be very, very lucky to get away with doing what donald trump wants you to do as the attorney general of the united states. you'd have to be lucky and
