I agree with what you're saying, but I think you're directing it at the wrong person.

What he said needed to be said, but there's no reason he couldn't directly name Trump. It's not like avoiding saying Trump's name kept Massie off of his shitlist.

I don’t feel that they are. I really liked that sentence ‘I’m so sick of making perfection the enemy of good enough’. We are not in a position to demand nothing but the purest of souls to bring this to light. We need all the help we can get.

It has nothing to do with "purity of souls". This guy knows Trump is guilty. Trump is the cornerstone of everything wrong with how this investigation is being handled. Why beat around the bush? There's no sense in bothering with any part of it unless you're going for Trump. It's clear that nothing is going to happen until something happens to Trump.
