How many scandals are there now?

Posted on 01/18/2018 5:08:18 PM PST by MNDude

1. Hillary email Scandal reopened.

2. Clinton Foundation investigation.

3. Pakistan's spying on Congressional servers scandal.

4. Fisa gate. This is probably much bigger than spying only on Trump. Many sources say Obama and the Deep state were spying on many people without words for a while.

5.Sedition gate. This involves the fraudlent dossier and the illegal attempt to overthrow the elected president.

6. Hezbollah gate.

7. Uranium one.

8. Pedogate? A lot of us believe that Hillary Clinton and other Elites have been involved in human trafficking, particularly from Haiti.

It's incredible if you think about how many individuals in government are involved in these scandals. There are so many enemies of trump who are in the position to be taken down that it may look like a dictator who is just taking out his enemies. I guess that is one of the reasons why Trump is working slowly and stealthily.

Even though many will claim that they are all #2-hole issues, I’d rank them all #1.

Thanks MNDude. So, it's about time to manufacture another crisis by voting down the continuing resolution.

Every liberal I know could watch on live television any democrat shoot a school bus with an RPG enter the flaming wreckage and grab any surviving 7 year old, then rape them, then flay them alive with an apple peeler, then crush their skiull and suck the brains out with a straw and 100% be all “meh”. Trump jaywalking or tweeting something mean (or anything at all) is worthy of a 24/7 screech fest and worthy of impeachment and prison, and nobody will shut up about it or turn down the hyperbole until the next outrage occurs (Basically Trump sais something else)

^This.

Something that awes me is how well-structured this take down has been, so far. Someone(s) spent a lot of time gaming it all out, treating it like a novel (IMO), envisioning every possible escape route/method and coming up with multiple ways to drive the perps into specific corners with every escape hatch blocked.

Doing this involved months and months of getting individuals and organizations on record and then skillfully using that record to let them indict themselves. The latest ploy by the baddies of getting testimony released so everyone can be on the same talking point is an example of the perps wriggling...or trying to wriggle...out of corners. But now, we have the 4-page memo and it is so damning not one donk on the committee wanted it released to Congress, let alone the public. Nunes saw this intel nearly a year ago(?), so the white hats have had time to prepare the battle ground.

Public statements that are contradicted by private communications. Check.

Denials under oath or at least in quasi-official interrogations. check

Drying up money source. Check.

Creating a Special Counsel that sucked up every defense law firm/litigator in DC and NYC. Check.

Exposure of internecine conflict that divides the enemy (Dem primaries). check.

White hats in place in key positions. check.

Canary traps. check.

Delegitimize media. Check.

Keep promises in order to retain base loyalty and convert the independents. Check.

Skillful use of social media by primaries and support staff. check.

Enough winning to incentivize the base and convince the fence-sitters. check.

Enough time allowed for everything to mature and ripen and the public outcry to build. check.

As skilled as POTUS is in many areas, he had major professional assistance in all of this. Managing this so it doesn’t fall prey to attacks of ‘partisan dictator’, ‘political payback’ was key and so far, all such attacks have fizzled because solid evidence existed.

I wonder how much they had beforehand? My guess is 90%. The art was in getting the other 10% through self-incrimination. Anyone could have intuited that 10%. Drawing it out into the sunlight was the craft.

If this was a novel or a film, I feel it is right at the beginning of Act 3: the Final Battle. Critical juncture, because there must be resolution.

This is an old-fashioned serial, writ large because it is real life with the highest stakes being played out on the world stage and we are all at risk.

There’s also Judge-gate, the 0bama weaponization of judges such as Judge Contreas who presided over the FISA court that approved the Clinton and DNC funded dossier, submitted by Comey. Contreas didn’t volunteraly recuse himself, he was probably put down by SCOTUS John Roberts.

I think a lot of hard core liberals woke up at least a little when Seth Rich was killed after Hillary stolen the election from Sanders. I think that was a factor on how Trump won.

I really hope they have upgraded his security.

As I recall, that's how the Clintons skated in the 90s.

There were so many scandals, nobody could even keep up with them.

Eventually, the public either got tired of them, or the Clintons successfully dismissed them as "old news."

All of these inevitably lead back to the biggest scandal of all time, Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009 when all of our elected and appointed stood by and watched a man they KNEW was not a natural born citizen take the oath of office.
(Both of his swearings were done twice, once public and once private, mmmmmmm)

Great list, Dude. Thanks!

Some good additions down thread, too.

IMO, you ought to post this, and additions, and any new stuff that comes to light, at least once per week. Keep it in the public eye.

I’d add the Clinton/Lynch tarmac collusion, Benghazi, Fast and Furious. There are just so many it’s hard to keep track of them all. I’ve probably forgotten a bunch of others, too.
