Oct. 19, 2017: Donald Trump just suggested the FBI, Democrats and Russia might all be co-conspirator
CNN ^ | Oct. 19, 2017 | Chris Cilizza

Posted on 02/03/2018 2:29:06 PM PST by confederatecarpetbag

This is, of course, somewhat common fare by this point in the arc of Trump's presidency. Faced this week with storylines he doesn't like -- questions about the Niger attack, controversy over a phone call he placed to the widow of one of the soldiers lost in that attack, Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Capitol Hill facing questions about Russian meddling in the election -- he aims to change the subject via his Twitter feed. And he often does so by lobbing out a conspiracy theory with only the loosest ties to the factual world.

Richly dripping with irony,this one is. Cilllizza proves himself yet again to be a fake news shill.

CNN, doing the work of the Kremlin to undermine a U.S. election. Who'd a thunk?

I’ll bet that Obama is slithering around in there somewhere, too.

Did not some people in Russian write part of the dossier? Maybe even Putin’s people?

Chris, all this boils down to when you and the rest of the msm mocked the President when he stated that he was being survailed.

Candidate Trump his campaign and all the people in it were “wiretapped.” (Dig).

Now Chris, where did all this information collected go?
Perhaps the Clinton campaign?

Oh, and Cbris, the survailance didn’t end after the election.

So Chris two things. You and your buddies in the msm are accessories to treason, and two Chris, go and reproduce asexually.

The existence of the criminal conspiracy is a proven fact.

All Cillizza needs to know is a criminal conspiracy is a crime of intention. Its irrelevant whether it succeeded.

You had a British spy, American law enforcement agencies and the Clinton campaign not only try to subvert an election result but to undermine and remove from office an elected President under false pretenses.

That’s a crime that dwarfs Watergate and CNN and Cilizza are the ones who refuse to face the facts out of a deep-seated hatred for Trump.

And that hatred has discredited rthe Mueller probe they so zealously defend.

Trump is the master strategist.

I think his ploy over the last war has been similar to Ali in the Rumble in the Jungle.

Dip, duck dodge and weave,
Absorb the hits, allow your opponent to exhaust himself on trying to take you out.
And then...
Launch the most devastating counter anyone has ever seen

If collusion between Trump and the Russians was worth
investigating, any collusion between the democrats
and the Russians is certainly worth investigating,
and if we don’t find anything in a year, maybe they
will be cleared...

The Democrats and the fake news media are realizing the damage the Nunes memo has done to the Russia Collusion meme.

Its Cillizza and CNN - not Trump who are frantically trying to change the subject because they don’t like the answers.

That’s projection. Oh, the irony!

The SC’s appointment was a departure from the norm - in which the SC is charged to prosecute someone for an actual crime.

Mueller has an open-ended mandate to look for a crime. That’s not a prosecutor’s job; that’s a fishing expedition.

If I didn’t know better, I’d swear CNN was run by a bunch of habitually pouting 10 year olds.

I was going to point out that there was a fourth co-conspirator, the press, but then I realized he covered that with “Democrats.”

Corruption at the top levels of the DOJ/FBI is deep and widespread.

The fake news media is uncurious about and attacks the President and Congress for exposing it.

Yup, that’s the stand of the purported defenders of the public interest.

I have no idea what people expect to accomplish by engaging in the snipefest known as Twitter.

Nothing has done more to undermine freedom of speech than to enable every jackal with a smartphone to speak without understanding and read without context.

Utter and futile waste off time. Although Pres. Trump uses it brilliantly, so maybe I just explained to myself why people use it..

Thanks for listening to me vent
