Why does Cooper insist on placing an HRT team by Joe Ga's side?
He doesn't genuinely want to protect Joe. He knows that when P.B decides to respond, these people are prepared.
Embedding a team is because Cooper needs an excuse for the FBI to get involved!
This guy has no small ambition. He wants to stand in a neutral position, using Rashiri's dirt, to mediate the malicious competition arising from the election.
Cooper actually shares Alicia's view; as the most powerful law enforcement agency in America, the FBI should not become a pawn in someone else's hand.
A non-neutral FBI will lose not only external trust but also the trust of its people.
When Rashiri's early emails were exposed, the New York police dragged the FBI into it for self-preservation.
After Danny Logan's viral "I don't have heart disease nor will I commit suicide" email was widely forwarded, Cooper received many identical authentic letters on his desk.
