I seriously can’t believe you are actually dumbfounded by this. At what point during the last six years did you actually think the Republicans stood for anything? Every chance they had to stand up to Obama, and establish themselves, they capitulated. They hid there heads in the sand during the last election not because they were afraid of what would happen if Democrats figured them out, they were afraid of Republican voters figuring them out.
Any question as to why investigations never led to anything on Obama. Including Benghazi?
That P.O.S. is third in succession of the Presidency.. He knew what was going on. Most likely approved of it. He made sure the investigations were whitewashed or committees had their hands tied.
