I'm sure it's as much a coincidence as the FBI reopening speculation about Hillary's emails just before the 2016 election.I don't think there is any coincidence here. The people driving the time-scales are scientists.
Never in a million years would they allow this to be a lever for Trumps second term. Trump fans might suggest this was a deliberate act of sabotage. But when you step pack - In any other race the scientists would have no bias for any candidate. Educated people hate Trump and he brought that on himself. So tough shit.
