The tweeting is instant news and can be modified as even small events change - he’s been laying out a hell of a case over the last 1-1/2 years.

Yes, as Ben Franklin said “ A Republic, if you can keep it”.

The Founders never used the word “democracy” except in a representative republic sense.

Because they knew, and history has continued to show— that a so called pure democracy always leads to dictatorship and tyranny.

The democrat party was founded on the notion of political machine control-— using the newspaper media (all over the country with names like...

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Tallahassee Democrat
Albany Democrat-Herald
The Johnstown Tribune- Democrat

etc. Some of which faded away or changed their name— but most were part of the dem machine.

And now.... the internet and their giant tech pals, and TV. Ultra lefties now and they are fooling no-one, but their stupid diehard “base” and uninformed newcomers/ illegals.

Thank you for your post.

The presence and effect of 3 major storm systems hitting the country in 3 different areas.... is gobbling up the newstime. The delay is covered by the white house counsel supposedly advising against declassifying— designed to do so. The WHC will do what Trump says or ... they’re out.

News gobblers dominates the news and people’s limited attention span:

Olivia tropical storm hovering around Hawaii.

Isaac approaching Carribean and into TX potentially.

Huge Florence hurricane— affecting most of the Eastern Seaboard, and especially the South, and VA/DC/MD on up into New England (just after the through the midwest and into N.E> with Gordon.

Better to declassify and release in bits— so people can digest and see the lies of the MSM.... those people who count. the dumbos and tv morons will believe whatever they see from MSM-— lazy minds.

Tweet away Mr President. Any talk coverage he’ll get is Fox and conservative radio.

Tweet away. We non elitists love it.

If they’re as devastating as claimed, i prefer he release them as an October surprise to help elect Republicans

Released too early and they’ll be explaining away by the media by the time the election rolls around

I agree with you 100%. ENOUGH of this pussy footing around the issue. Take a bite of it and break some bones

That may well be true. Alternatively, he could release the FISA docs in a sequential fashion. The drip, drip, drip tactic that Mueller is using.

The hurricane will dominate the news for the next few days so no sense in releasing them now. I do worry that waiting too long may give time for Mueller and his pals inside the DOJ and FBI to fabricate some new “evidence” or charges against Trump. I don’t like the idea of giving your enemy time to regroup and amass its forces.

Drip, drip is a good idea. I like it.

“If Trump doesn’t release these FISA docs and appoint a special counsel before the elections, it will confirm that he’s been threatened...”

Or, that he knows something we don’t know.

There was precious little time to wrest control of ‘our’ 4 trillion dollar corrupt stasi state from the radical left. That was with ALL HANDS ON DECK. Not backstabbing AGs like Jeff Sessions and the GOP actively working against Trump.

No, the swamp is moving in for the kill. No matter what the chattering idiots on twitter say or what Queer anon says. Those are the facts on the ground.

“This is the only way our President has disappointed me. He has the power to wipe out these scum, but has held back and suffered greatly for it. Why?”

In my opinion, this is sort of like me saying to a top brain surgean “What are you waiting for? Just cut the damn tumor out!!”

I have a lot of faith in Trump - he’s a smart cookie, he loves his country, and he is virtually fearless. And since he is obviously in possession of a great many facts that I am not privy to, I have to assume he has good reasons for playing this stuff out the way he is.

Maybe it’s like when you have a gigantic fish on the line, you don’t just reel it in with all your might. Or maybe it’s something else completely.

There is just no way in hell he would stand by and let the deep state destroy his presidency.

So, even though it appears as though that is what is happening, appearances can be deceiving.

“Better to declassify and release in bits—..”

Good analysis. I think there’s another reason why Trump is not declassifying this stuff as quickly as people here had hoped..

I get the feeling Trump badly wants the details of this conspiracy to come to light, but he doesn’t want it to be him or his people pointing the finger.

Ideally, legislators like Meadows, Jordan, Nunes, Goodlatte, etc. will continue to put pressure on the deep staters in the DOJ and FBI, until they realize they can’t cover it up forever, and release the documents. Perhaps the mere threat of the POTUS declassifying will be enough to make it happen. Perhaps there are white hats within the DOJ and FBI who are making headway unbeknownst to the public.

The impact of this scandal on the public will be minimized by the MSM, so Trump needs to do anything he can to give it more oomph. It seems to me that the more it appears to erupt naturally on its own steam, the better.

If Trump is seen to be the one pushing the narrative, it is weaker, because he can be accused of doing it for self serving motives. If it all blows up independant of Trump, because of new “discoveries”, it is a much more likely to “get legs”.

“Those are the facts on the ground.”

No, those are your opinions - which I disagree with.

I think Trump has the upper hand. He’s the one moving in for the kill, and because he doesn’t do everything out in the open, and doesn’t act according to your expectations and on your timetable, you wrongly conclude nothing is being done.

It’s true, Queer anon has no clue what is happening, but neither do you or I. Building a case of this magnitude and complexity is a massive undertaking, and as with any police work, the public is kept in the dark. In a case involving widespread corruption in multiple counter intelligence agencies, the need for stealth and secrecy would be profound.

At this point in time, we simply do not have a reasonable basis for judging whether enough is being done to end the corruption and bring the guilty to justice.

You’ll just have to wait and see like the rest of us. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at what a fine job Trump has been doing.

Yep— like the best “selling” of an idea is the self discovery of the idea by the listener... from 3rd party sources. This would provide the greatest number of “converts” to understanding the depths of the criminal democrats and corruption of their actions by their peeps inside the DOJ and FBI. A completely fabricated non-factual set of “evidence” to get a warrant to spy on US citizens-— they learn that the right way, and people will be outraged— relate it to them like a corrupt policeman planting drugs on a “target” to get them indicted. Regular folks get that notion.... cause it happens all the time.

Dossier and news articles to “COMPOSE” a FISA warrant?— people will get that....big time (Big League/Bigly).
