Mr. Comey’s request is a remarkable rebuke of a sitting president, putting the nation’s top law enforcement official in the position of questioning Mr. Trump’s truthfulness. The confrontation between the two is the most serious consequence of Mr. Trump’s weekend Twitter outburst, and it underscores the dangers of what the president and his aides have unleashed by accusing the former president of a conspiracy to undermine Mr. Trump’s young administration.
If Drumpf is serious, he must order that investigation of Obama, and the FBI. Imagine the embarrassment it would bring him if there is no proof whatsoever.
Accusing Obama automatically implicates the FBI and the judiciary, since BHO could never have executed the wiretapping on his own and without clearance. This POTUS is surely mentally unstable.
The claims about wiretapping appear similar in some ways to the unfounded voter fraud charges that Mr. Trump made during his first days in the Oval Office. Just after Inauguration Day, he reiterated in a series of Twitter posts his belief that millions of voters had cast ballots illegally — claims that also appeared to be based on conspiracy theories from right-wing websites.
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump’s claim that Barack Obama wiretapped him received a strong denial on Monday from the former President, who said to reporters, “Like I’d want to hear more from that fool?”
Obama said that, when he first saw Trump’s allegations on Twitter, “My first thought was, Only a narcissist on the scale of Donald Trump would think people want to hear more from him than they currently do. If anything, I think we’d all like to hear way, way less.”
He said that his wife, Michelle, agreed that the idea of his wanting to hear more from Donald Trump “was one of the funniest things she’s ever heard.”
Trump is not dumb or at least it doesn’t bother the Republicans. While the media is chasing his dumb Twitter scandals Congress is passing some nasty nasty laws.
Drumpf’s (can we just call him dunbo? - it’s easier to write) actions defy logic. If somebody does not take away his twitter account or censor it, be prepared to be entertained until he does himself in. Watch your six too, he might expel all Kenyans from the US just for the fun of it.
You know, there was absolutely nothing else he could say other than there’ll be an investigation. If think about it, what is congress going to investigate, rumors in an ultra-conservative talk show that have ZERO supporting evidence? That was an answer arrived upon when sober minds knew they had to do damage control. If they conduct a full blown investigation, they’ll legitimize dumbo’s drunk rants.
His wife needs to cut the crap and go get laid in the White House. That’s the real issue here.
