FULL TITLE: Jeffrey Toobin Mentioned The Time Trump Accused Obama Of Wiretapping Him And CNN New Days Hosts Immediately Changed The Topic

CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin mentioned allegations of former President Barack Obama wiretapping President Donald Trump’s campaign, Friday on “New Day,” and hosts Alisyn Camerota and John Berman couldn’t change the subject fast enough.

Toobin began the segment claiming average Americans couldn’t follow along with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) memo because it was too complex for them.

“I think the Nunes memo is such a complicated story, frankly, that ordinary civilians have a hard time following,” Toobin said. “I suspect most people have made up their mind to the extent they have an opinion about this story at all. It’s turned into a partisan food fight.”

“The Democrats have already made their arguments about the whole subject,” he continued. “So the memo itself, I mean people will read it, those who are interested. But I think this has been the story of this past Trump year. Stories that were, you know, explosive and big. Remember he said, Obama wiretapped me. Like, what? That was a huge story we spent months on.”

CNN is a one trick pony:

Trump bad; Trump bad; Trump bad.

They are as predictable as the sunrise.

Toobin will lose his gig at the Communist News Network if he slips up like this again.

Let me explain the issue Jeff. The Obama Administration illegally spied on Trump World both before and after the election. It did so to feed Intel to the Hillary campaign and the media to prevent a Trump presidency. When that failed they attempted to remove a duly elected president through a phone charge of Collusion going so far as to get a Special Council appointed for the sole purpose of removing Trump. IE: They got caught attempting a bloodless Coup.

The lot of them should be tried, convicted and hanged for treason. That includes several complicit members of the ‘Journalism Community’s

This is the worst political scandal in American History. By allot.

Does that explain it Jeffrey?

Most salient citizens already know it. That is why a clear majority want a second Special Council.

Hussein/Clinton/FBI/CIA/DOJ/Treasury didn’t just wiretap Trump. They unleashed partisan Federal investigators on the entire Trump team and probably all of the other GOP candidates.

It wasn’t Russians, it was deep state progressives colluding to affect the outcome of a presidential election.

“I think the Nunes memo is such a complicated story, frankly, that ordinary civilians have a hard time following,” Toobin said.

And Toobin lets the cat out of the bag with his word usage that there is, in some people's thinking, a war going on.
If he had said "ordinary citizens" I wouldn't be making any comment at all.

The great CNN Titantic may have hit a large chunk of ice with the hate Trump narrative. The only people who watch are people addicted to a hate fix everyday. The people on t.v. are possessed with hate, it gets them high. They will take on water, as the ship’s mission fails!

The pay per view of that event would settle the national debt

You beat me to it. They didn’t spend months on it. They ridiculed Trump from the moment he said it It was impossible it never could have happened. And now we know it did. And American Pravda is hard at work keeping people from the truth.
