Trump Set the Trap and the Rats (and RINOs) Walked In
Self | 3/4/2017 | LS

Posted on 03/04/2017 7:00:02 AM PST by LS

Over the past week the hysteria on the right and among some weak-kneed Trumpers has been over the top. Even Rush Limbaugh began to wiggle uncomfortably, fearing Trump did know what he was up against, and hadn't moved fast enough to deal with the "silent coup" against him.

Jeff Sessions' recusal supposedly showed that Trump, like all the rest of the Republicans, didn't know how to play hardball.

Ooops.

I can always tell when something big is about to happen at Team Trump when my contact messages aren't returned. And I'm always pleasantly surprised that Team Trump is one to a dozen steps ahead of anything I'm thinking.

Case in point: yesterday I drafted a memo urging Trump to go on offense against the Democrats, specifically the Congressional rats. And as usual, I'm thinking of building a bowling alley while Trump is envisioning a gleaming skyscraper.

Today Trump's offensive began. But only after cleverly baiting the hook, luring the enemy Cannae-style into an envelope from which there is no escape.

He didn't fight back against the guys in the ring. He went after their manager, their coach, and their funder-in-chief. Trump went after the head of the snake.

By Tweeting that Trump Tower and his personal residence were bugged---and apparently the evidence of such a wiretap approval exists---Trump again shows why he plays 3D chess and his enemies are playing Parcheesi. The Bible says it this way: "They will come at you one way and go away fleeing seven."

Other than the fact that this is OBAMA he is going after, the juciest part is that Sessions did NOT recuse himself from a wiretap investigation of Obama. Get it?

Trump just leapfrogged the whole Russia thing with an "It ends today." Now Team Trump has leverage to force a full and total standdown of all opposition to Trump inside Congress, all end to the disruptions, and meek and timid confirmation of all appointees. Or Zero goes to jail. That simple.

Many here will want blood. But I'm reminded of Sam Houston after he defeated Santa Anna at San Jacinto. Instead of hanging the dictator, he merely took all of the American Southwest. Santa Anna was out soon anyway, but we still have Phoenix, Denver, and (unfortunately) California. It will be a negotiation from strength, and the Dems will have no choice but to comply. They won't completely give up---there will be surreptitious acts with enough deniability---but this was a perfectly baited hook that all of Trump's enemies just walked into.

Some of these might be outside agitators. I saw a number of ugly posts by people with the 2008-2010 time frame start dates. I recall that was a problem during the campaign.

Santa Ana wound up selling the base ingredient for chewing gum.

He won’t get both.

Too funny when you consider your post...

And I'm always pleasantly surprised that Team Trump is one to a dozen steps ahead of anything I'm thinking.

Getting both might not be so improbable if he's ahead of anything you're thinking.

Good picture. I’m sure dozens of knowledgable friends warned Trump over the past 1.5 years what was up and what he was getting into. He pushed ahead anyway. Now he and his people have access to a lot more information that he can use to drain the swamp.

To me, it’s like Trump has been walking through Transylvania waving a crucifix. I have never seen so many masks ripped off!

I would assume it means he has his ducks in a row enough to reveal he’s moving forward with it. That he DOES have the goods. He IS POTUS now for Geebus’ sake.

Back in May, the New York Tiimes wrote an article about the “chaos and paranoia” in the Trump campaign.

I saw this on another site so don’t have a link, but one of the signs of their “paranoia” is that they thought their phones were tapped.

I wonder if Trump’s private security discovered some of this way back then?

Was there wiretapping outside the FISA jurisdiction?

This whole thing is fascinating!

Gd never allows Truth to be blocked forever. Obama might never see jail, but there IS some way to expose him as having been wholly ineligible and reduce his presidency to a mistake made by PC voters and globalist criminals. Pelosi ultimately signed off on his eligibility. Put her in gen pop at Chowchilla.

This is not a campaign issue I don’t believe.

Yeh this thing needs to be shutdown fast. Otherwise we are looking at civil war if Ocommie is allowed to keep up the treason.

Thanks for asking this. I do not know the legalities of this, either. Though it does seem very third worldian to allow a leadership in power to bug and tap their location to trip up the successor. (As I do believe the WH itself may have been compromised)

I agree with you on the color/gender issue. If Dr. Carson or Sarah Palin had been elected to the presidency we would have considered it to be a win for the country not a win for inclusion politics.

It is him against the entire world. A little over 50 million of us against billions that don’t want a change in the status quo.
You are correct that his enemies are Titans and taking them down won’t be easy.
If anyone can do it though, it’s Present TRUMP.

Right. If he says he just learned, it means he wants you, and his enemies, to know he knows. He never reveals information unintentionally, which is one of the things the opposition never catches onto.
