(CNN) Because we are so polarized politically these days, there's a tendency to assume that every single issue that breaches our collective national consciousness must, at its root, be a fight between Democrats and Republicans. But, the assumption of this polarization sometimes oversimplifies the actual dynamic at work. One one side of the divide, you have Nunes, the GOP members of the House Intelligence, who voted along party lines earlier this week to release the memo, Speaker Paul Ryan and White House chief of staff John Kelly. Trump himself was overheard Tuesday night telling Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina he was "100%" supportive that the memo be released within the 5 day window. But, the White House has offered no official position yet.
