Today’s Campaign Update, Part II (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Here are the highlights from AG William Barr’s interview with Bill Hemmer on Fox News Friday morning. This is a big deal.:

“This [The FBI spying on the Trump Campaign] was handled at the very senior levels of these agencies. It wasn’t handled in the ordinary way.”

“We have a number of investigations underway.”

Hemmer: You called it a circus. Do you feel threatened?
Barr: “No, I don’t feel threatened.”

I want to believe, and I think we have grounds to believe up until now that William Barr is not Jeff Sessions.

Hey Nate! After getting Trump and the election 100% wrong as a matter of routine, you're actually getting something right! Or at least you're getting warm.

Looken sharp Nate!☺

I actually got the vote total right.

I am delighted to have been wrong about the electoral college.

“You have pretty well described Modified, Limited Hangout (MLH). Let out just enough information to reassure and distract. As people become more distracted the intervals of the drips and dabs can increase. Keep people calm by guaranteeing them the their concerns are being heard. Just enough that the rubes don’t get riled up. Drag it out until almost no one can even remember what the fuss was all about. They did this at Kent State, at the Ludlow Massacre, and they are doing it right now (about 5 years in) at the Twin Peaks Massacre.

I recognize all the elements of MLH here. As you started out, if he was going to arrest anybody we know he could do it today.”

And you have just described the raison d’etre for Q!

You're funnier than a barrel of monkeys Nate. You had everything about Trump wrong and you were a never Trump hack from day one. Would you like me to dig some of it up and post it here?☺

It is not unreasonable to maintain healthy skepticism about the motives of Atty. Gen. Barr until we see some action.


Yes, that is totally reasonable, and I remain skeptical myself. But I also note that, thus far, we have seen none of the telling, disturbing signs that we got from Day 1 from Recused Jeff Sessions.

So, I’m encouraged at the very least.

I believe Wray is one of the people providing answers to Barr that are “inadequate” and “don’t hang together”.

So many people are telling Barr different things, he knows they are all lying in one way or another. They may avoid giving direct answers to Congress, but Barr is having none of it.

All you have to do is read between the lines to understand that Barr knows many serious crimes have been committed by high ranking members of the DOJ, FBI, Brennan, and Clapper; and, lots of others. When he says he is looking into to a specific subject because he has concerns, it means he’s still in the process of collecting the evidence to nail them all to the wall.

Based on the comments by his targets, they know it , too.

These are just a small fraction of examples of your anti-Trump screed. And I hadn't even touched your Never-Trump rants prior to Trumps victory, which you also said would never happen suggesting Trump would destroy himself before the election. You're a poser and a hack Nate. ___________________________________________________

Regarding Trump: Claiming victory as he retreats from the field, waving the white flag even as he claims victory, shouting defiance as he quits.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3547760/posts?page=116#115

Budget bill will have funding for: Planned Parenthood

Refugee resettlement

Sanctuary cities

Obamacare cost-sharing subsidies will be added

Tired of winning yet?

________________________________________

Of course there is no 3-D chess at play here and there never was any 3-D chess at play anywhere. The proposition that Trump was brilliantly playing 3-D chess every time he committed a gaffe was utterly preposterous-even absurd.

________________________________________________

Tired of losing yet? We own the White House and the Capitol yet:

We have lost a temporary cessation of refugees from some Muslim lands.

We have lost on repeal and reform of Obamacare.

We have lost on funding the wall.

We have lost control of the budget process and left it hostage to Senator Schumer.

We have lost the power to compel sanctuary cities to obey the law by stripping them of federal funding.

________________________________________________

Trump got in bed with the Rinos on Ryan care.

_____________________________________________

I would prefer to have Ted who, I believe, recanted before the election concerning the number of H1B visas and did so publicly and not deceptively after he is elected as Trump did with DACA."

______________________________________________

As I stated at the time of the healthcare fiasco, a real danger exists that Donald Trump will abandon his base and make common cause with rinos and Democrats.

__________________________________________

If Donald Trump cannot succeed now when he has the momentum of his election in his pocket how do you think he is going to succeed nearly a year later in September when all the forces are arrayed against him and all the special interests have coordinated when he has done nothing but lose and they have done nothing but win? _____________________________________________ I was never against Trump's presidency, I was very much against his nomination. (BS on parade...LOL!)

__________________________________________

You have just illustrated how the Trump bot swarm has been operating around here for months.

______________________________________________

Fortunately, events are opening the eyes of many fellow conservatives concerning Donald Trump when he departs from his promises or when he governs as something other than a conservative. Events are alerting them to the tactics we see here.

________________________________________________

It was the Trump bots who attacked those who supported Ted Cruz with the most outlandish charges, most of which a reasonable person must conclude have boomeranged on Donald Trump by now.

_________________________________________________

I am not asking Trump to drink his tea with his pinky in the air, I am asking him to have have his tweets vetted before he crashes into cyberspace at 5 AM.

_______________________________________________

And a typical response to you and your anti-Trump rants. ""Jim Robinson is the one who zotted you—and rightly so—for your unhinged behavior during the election cycle, not me.

And, as everyone knows, it takes a bona fide effort to get one's self zotted.""

___________________________________________

Now you can twist into knots denying your a political poser by telling everyone how much you support Trump

And keep your bull shit up, and I’ll dig down to prior to Trumps victory, where you did everything possible to slander and discredit the possibility of a Trump Victory. Try me.

I neither support nor oppose Trump, I support conservative principles. I'm not here as part of a of personality cult, I am here as a conservative.

So long as Trump continues to govern conservatively, such as concerning immigration and judges, I will support him. When Trump fails to govern conservatively, such as overspending, I will oppose him. When Trump is unjustly attacked, when our criminal justice system is corruptly weaponized against the president of the United States, I will defend the president of the United States.

You listed a lot of statements as though that settles matters, but you do not tell us which statement you disagree with, which assertions of fact were wrong at the time they were made.

You're free to quote me on here as you please as long as you do not descend into abuse at which point I will complain. Let the record reflect that you initiated this quarrel and you have already come close to personal abuse.

I don't even read your screed anymore. I've had your number Nate since Trump announced his candidacy. I've read enough of your wordy rambling anti-Trump comments and I was never impressed by you our your civil war emblem. You even suggesting you were or are a Trump supporter is disgusting and one of the most disingenuous comments I've ever read here.

Personal abuse? Gak. Go ahead and call the moderator Nate. Their choice, but why they tolerate political posers like you I'll never know and can only speculate.

"Regarding Trump: Claiming victory as he retreats from the field, waving the white flag even as he claims victory, shouting defiance as he quits."

My comment was in fact not "regarding Trump" it was in response to the immediately preceding reply which you would have observed if you had read them and if, in the unlikely event, you had no malicious intent.

"Budget bill will have funding for: Planned Parenthood Refugee resettlement Sanctuary cities Obamacare cost-sharing subsidies will be adde"

All of these assertions were part of the news of the day

"Of course there is no 3-D chess at play here and there never was any 3-D chess at play anywhere. The proposition that Trump was brilliantly playing 3-D chess every time he committed a gaffe was utterly preposterous-even absurd."

You failed to note that other Freepers on that thread agreed with that statement. I stand behind it.

"Tired of losing yet? We own the White House and the Capitol yet: We have lost a temporary cessation of refugees from some Muslim lands. We have lost on repeal and reform of Obamacare. We have lost on funding the wall. We have lost control of the budget process and left it hostage to Senator Schumer. We have lost the power to compel sanctuary cities to obey the law by stripping them of federal funding."

All true at the time, some still true. The wall is still not fully funded; we have not repealed or reformed Obamacare; the budget process has been out of control for two years; sanctuary cities are thriving and receiving federal funding.

"As I stated at the time of the healthcare fiasco, a real danger exists that Donald Trump will abandon his base and make common cause with rinos and Democrats."

Trump was not able to control the rinos, whether or not he made common cause with them, if he temporized and let them have their way, we do not know but we do know that the entire Obamacare fiasco was not repealed, not replaced although Trump did succeed in hopefully emasculating a significant provision in court, and depending on what the upper court does, could end Obamacare.

"If Donald Trump cannot succeed now when he has the momentum of his election in his pocket how do you think he is going to succeed nearly a year later in September when all the forces are arrayed against him and all the special interests have coordinated when he has done nothing but lose and they have done nothing but win? "

The election of 2018 speaks for itself.

"I was never against Trump's presidency, I was very much against his nomination. (BS on parade...LOL!)"

Of course I was for Trump's election. I was for Ted Cruz'nomination. Once Trump was nominated I supported his election, but I did not abandon a conservative's duty to speak the truth. I have never understood why people consider their argument enhanced by the addition of "… LOL!"

For someone who doesn't read my "screed" anymore, you have certainly invested a lot of time and energy doing so and wasted a lot of bandwidth publishing them.

Get a life of your own.

You have me mistaken for someone who might swallow your BS.

Now go back to your attempts to discredit, undermine and bad mouth Trump at ever opportunity with your endless wordy diatribes. It’s why I don’t bother reading your long winded never-Trump comments anymore. It’s the same old thing with you.

Are you Bill Kristol's twin brother? That's the exact kind of thing every nevertrumper pretends to believe.

Pretense, just like the silly monniker of your racist screen name.

I knew you were a fraud for a long time. Dragnet2 has just proved it to the entire FR posting community.
