If the President doesn't have solid proof of these accusations then he just committed political suicide. This goes beyond the games that the political parties play in Washington, one way or another those tweets have the potential to rock our democracy to the core.

No one believes that shite. Kevin Lewis doesn't even believe it.

I'm gonna submit that the investigation of an opposing political campaign is a bigger threat to the democracy than some tweets about it.

And that should just about wrap up this fake news from the Liar in Chief.

Play on words...


What do know it that Obama himself called for action.. Here is the video.

So he is being technically correct. He did not say they have never started an investigation.

I would have to think Trump has more info then reading something online or hearing something on TV, etc. And we own all branches, why is his administration all not going after all the MFers. His admin has all the leverage, go Nuclear on all these issues.

Guess Obama forgot said cardinal rule when he commented, early on, bout Hillary's acts not being a threat to national security? Or when he jumped into the Ferguson B.S. before the investigation even started & ripped the police? To list only 2 occasions.

Do you typically consider a charge false when the subject says "nuh uh?"

Again.. He selected his words carefully.

1- will interfere with.

Like I said.. play on words. The accusation isn't that they interfered. It's that they pushed for it.

2- Independent...

What Obama did wasn't an independent investigation. Per the video ... He called for it!

Trump is out of control. Why post that on twitter?

One thing he guaranteed is a special prosecutor to look into all of this.

In the end, no one will come out unscathed.

Putin will be dancing in the streets. This is way more than he ever could have dreamed of.

Again you left out the second part of the quote.

He directly invoked Nixon and Watergate and accused the former president of high crimes. That forces several Congressional Committees and an independent investigator. He will be censured within a month, if not impeached.
