‘We know this was done early, before Trump was the nominee, and so far we do NOT have any evidence that Yeb, Cruz, or Kasich were similarly “surveilled,” leading me to think that the Dems ONLY feared Trump.’

Great article. This is the only part I question. I believe [but can’t prove] that the surveillance of Trump was directly instigated by Obama, but not as a result of fear that Trump would win the election (Obama didn’t think that was possible). Rather, it comes down to Obama being a Malignant Narcissist, and the way MNs think.

Trump is the only truly prominent person in the US who has challenged Obama’s birther tales/birth certificate. You don’t do that to a Malignant Narcissist and get away with it—not if he can help it.

MNs see themselves as a sort of human-form diety. Their word should be revered, and never, EVER questioned. Trump broke the cardinal rule, and Obama has borne him a seething, simmering grudge ever since.

The Trump surveillance was Obama’s bid to get even with Trump. No one who knows the psychology of the Malignant Narcissist will doubt this. They are angry, arrogant, vengeful people. They will stop at nothing to even old scores.

I bet it is why Mitt and McInsane were so non-confrontational when they ran for president. Remember it all started with the FBI files under Bill and Hill.

I think what will be most important is how much info they have on senators and how desperate they are to keep it secret.

You can tell how effective it is by the way the media goes bonkers about it. He makes an end run around their bullcrap.

There’s another layer of isolation in that Tetiaroa Island is a private island, surrounded by a large coral reef. There is no real port or even a dock of any scale there, and the airport is tiny, looks like a sand strip cut into the edge of jungle. Two Brando resort owned planes are the only air connection that I can tell. So, who gets in and who gets out is very well controlled. Short of sending an aircraft carrier and launching a chopper, it would be difficult to get any sort of legal or military presence on that island without several hours’ notice.

No other candidate ever openly questioned Obama's qualification / birth certificate.

On the other hand, if someone was wanted by some legal entity, it would just be a cushy prison.

Sessions’ recusal pertains to investigation and prosecution of wrongdoing by the Trump campaign. He can’t reasonably be held to investigate “himself.” He has not recused himself from any other angle of inquiry.

As well as anybody who makes materially false statments to investigators.

“How effective a tool is it really for him? I do not have a twitter account, either. By continuing to use Twitter, Trump will continue to be the most controversial POTUS. Is that really worth his time?”

***

1) Very.

2) Most emphatically, yes.

This kind of juvenile crap takes away from the seriousness of the issue and gives YOU no credibility...at all.

Do you suffer autism? I believe I saw a research study that said that fecal replacement therapy (I am being serious) relieves some of the symptoms of autism. Basically, they clean out your insides then put someone else's fecal matter into your digestive system. The idea is that it makes your gut bacteria more healthy.
