As I see it, the Clintons and Obama don't exactly like each other, but they have somewhat of a pact... with a Mutually Assured Destruction sort of way to enforce their "relationship". Obama HAD to insure Hillary won the election because she would surely keep all his secrets (crimes) hidden from view. In return, he's been keeping her dirty secrets as quiet as possible.
Trump winning was their worst nightmare... not because of his policies so much, but because he's an outsider and they couldn't trust him to "honor" the tradition of not digging up dirt/crimes from a past president (or SOS) and acting on them.
Most of the politicians feared Trump for the same reason. McCain helped Obama set the stage for the FISA warrants to snoop on Trump's transition team. That's what the "dossier" was meant to do. Obama used that to justify spying on Trump's incoming team... using the FBI, NSA and CIA... probably the IRS too.
Its an absolute miracle, given the powers of our government, that all this force couldn't stop Trump from actually taking office.
They're all still fighting to try and prevent Trump from getting full control of the government, but slowly but surely he's inching forward. Soon, hopefully, he'll finally get his man in at the FBI... a key step to finally opening up the Pandora's box of stalled investigations. Getting the corrupt top layer of management out of the FBI will be a pivotal point in his presidency... things should start to get really interesting when that happens.
I heard Lanny Davis on Michael Medved yesterday, for a few minutes before I changed the channel. MM: “Don’t you think impeachment would be bad for the country?” LD: “Yes. We just want to tangle Trump up in legal stuff and make sure that his voters realize he is compromised.” MM: “Yes, and vote him out of office.”
That’s it to me - they will be tarred and feathered if they get near impeachment, and they know it. But they just want to ankle-bite all the way to 2020 in order to bring Trump down. It disgusted me.
I personally think it is all ammo for Trump to use in that election, and that he can even win bigger numbers.
