Those are apples and oranges. Yes busy and Cheney should face the consequences of their action. But this time you have to consider just how public this is. Regardless of the outcome, I don't see people being quiet this time and that's going to force a hand. Bush and Cheney didn't go on tv every day denying what they did, they just stayed quiet. Trump cannot stay quiet. Trump is not a politician and refuses to play by even the Republicans rules.
