Who reads ADN comments at the national level? Nobody. ADN commentators have absolutely zero influence on a national or world scale. We do have some modest influence on a state scale though.
World events, national events, all have some bearing on what happens in Alaska. The spitting match, which is all it is, between Trump and Comey cannot be solved by us. We can see though, just how it trickles down to us.
You, and three others commented directly to the articles subject line. I simply stated "Follow the money" and gave an example of where the money influence can impact Alaska. I brought a national spitting match to relevancy in how it directly affects us; and how our legislature's current spitting match is also about following the money.
Then there were ten replies resulting to my first comment, which I dutifully answered. If it was all about staying on subject, then I would have been simply ignored. So, WE got off subject.
