My Facebook feed has people complaining about Hillary's email and all the classified stuff Obama disclosed as some sort of bizarre attempt to deflect from the Trump investigations. Why would one person's crimes impact the innocence or guilt of another in completely separate legal matters? It is the craziest false equivalence argument I have ever seen. If there was really something worth chasing in Hillary or Obama's past, the Republican controlled White House and Congress would likely do something about it. IO mean, ball is in your court fellas....go ahead and investigate and bring some charges. *crickets*
The classified thing is silly except for it being dangerous. It was during this calendar year that there were some issues/discussions regarding classified information. The President is basically the only person that can spontaneously declassify information. That said, just because he can doesn't mean he should, especially in this particular situation. It's actually more like a smoke screen to draw attention away from the larger and more important Russia investigation. However, sharing information from another country without their approval to a third country seems to well overstep his bounds. This wasn't U. S. intelligence, but intelligence shared with the U.S. provenance and ownership of this information matters.
It is a stupid move. This part of why he was always terrible choice for president...he's completely unfiltered and reactionary. If you can get him talking long enough while distracting him from the stream of horrible things he's saying you could get this buffoon to admit his incompetence, how in over his head he is, and how much he's fucked up. You can see it starting to happen in almost every interview he's ever done. It's when the interviewers, how are rightly stunned by some of the shit he says, seek to clarify something that it gives him pause and he starts to reflect upon his utterances (if even for just a few seconds) that he might realize he's said something questionable. He likely doesn't
know why what he's said might set off alarms, but he picks up on the reactions and tone of the question.
Total fucking idiot. He scares me, truly. And the unwillingness of the GOP shitheads in Congress to call him out completely ENRAGES me. They're all garbage. Even the shittiest Democrat, and plenty of them are shit, shines like the purest diamond next to the "best" Republican in congress. They
are the swamp. And they know it. It's why they're playing along with Trump, because they don't want to be drained. Are larger more obvious bunch of cowards I've never seen.
