Admiral Mike Rogers, head of the NSA, met with Trump in Nov 2016. They met at Trump Tower, and Rogers did not clear the meeting with President Obama. It was unauthorized.
Many people speculate that Rogers told Trump “everything”. If anyone knows “everything” it is the NSA. Trump may have had some knowledge before the meeting, but the speculation is that Rogers and Trump hatched a long-term plan for draining the swamp. It is methodical, building up lots of evidence for future court cases. It’s been building for over a year, and they are not done yet. But the drips of information, the people not seeking re-election, these are all part of it.
The next few months are likely to show whether this theory is accurate.
“What are your predictions of what will happen?”
As soon as a name comes out of this like Mueller, Trump is going to have them all thrown in prison. There are two problems to this. For one, it explains Mueller’s hiring of the Clinton team. They are there to destroy every piece of evidence relating to Fusion GPS. And two, unless Sessions has a team behind the scenes putting together a case, he needs to be fired also.
This was a direct affront to the American people. An intelligence operation operating outside the bounds of the government is illegal.
“It seems Trump may have known about some of the nefarious activities of the US intelligence shortly after becoming elected, possibly even before.”
There might have to be two predictions made. One in the case of Trump knowing before he was elected and another one in the case of him not knowing until after he was elected.
Long ago, even before he decided to run for President, I recognized that Trump was a strategic genius.
He was winning at $100+million dollar deals against the real estate barons of New York City. He delt with organized crime in NYC that ran the construction industry and came out relatively clean.
Trump knew the depths of the swamp and knew that if he jumped in too fast it would devour him. He waded in gradually, set to up the swamp for self destruction rather than declaring war.
Trump is an excellent student of Sun Tsu.
President Trump has many things he could do. My favorite is that he can use military intelligence to quietly identify and roll all members of the Obama gestapo network and arrest them for espionage against the Federal Government.
That would be cool.
My bet is that President Trump is secretly using his intel capability to gather evidence and when he has enough, heads are going to roll.
Paying out the rope.
It would sure be a big help if he had an AG to help him, instead of Jeffie Sessions.
What are “state secrets”?
Who has access to them?
Who knows where all the bodies are buried?
Who proclaims, to the world, we were created by the one true God?
He wasn’t suppose to win.
God bless Trump, God bless the USA.
Nothing like this has happened in US history on this scale. It involves almost every branch of government and several foreign government and foreign spy agencies to skirt our laws. I do not know how far they are going to take this but Dems were stupid to keep trying to destroy Trump after he was elected. He offered an olive branch and they still tried to impeach him. He has no choice but to take all of them down and destroy their organizations. If he does not we as a country are done. They really became so powerful we had lost our country.
I expect an attempted military coup in the next six months.
Unclear which side starts it, or how it ends.
But combinations too powerful to be suppressed by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings have arisen in the capital and elsewhere, and will either win out or be suppressed by force.
