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.
Right on freeper brother from another mother! No one with IQ less than genius can borrow $1 million from father and grow it 10,000 times in one short life time, and then get elected POTUS during first time run, without ANY prior political run ever.
I seriously doubt anyone would be able to get those records. FOIA would not work. Someone like Trump could order appropriate persons to inspect and make them known.
As far as the data base records, anyone can obtain them by paying for the service. Not really that expensive. Already published by PI’s a few years ago. Can’t remember there name(s). Was defintely on FR.
I don’t think there is a legal wire tap for one political party to spy on another. The judge that issued the final warrant needs to be brought up on charges also.
I certainly hope there are more black presidents in the future, who genuinely love America and what it stands for. However Jimmah Carter has to be the happiest man in America because he will no longer be remembered as the worst president.
Rush has no idea who Trump is. He got Trump wrong during the primary (but today won’t admit it and lies about having believed in Trump from the beginning). In his cluelessness, Rush thinks he’s qualified now to explain Trump to us. Really it’s sad. Watch him try to “cleverly” distance himself from the worrywarts on Monday.
All HRC’s inexplicable mistakes could be attributed to taps on DJT’s campaign, and her choice of Kaine instead of Bernie, if she REALLY wanted to win.
I also think O’Keefe got so deep into the vote fraud Lion’s den that the operators dropped their plans for fear of being outed then arkancided by Zero/HRC.
Whew! I thought I was the only one on FR that remembered that he called Obama out on the points you mentioned.
thanks i’ll check that out later-
Victory doesn't address lawlessness. Only the law does that.
Obama bugged me too!
He still bugs me.
Excellent!
Trump admin has already taken a giant leap by placing the Rats instantly on the defensive with this tweet-move. No need to kill Rats jumping off the ship. Save the bullets for later.
“An indictment of Obama wont happen because the blacks would riot.”
And don’t say anything bad about muslims or they’ll riot. I’m done with all of them. Peacefull protest is allowed, but I’m ready to lay waste to rioters.
Amen Brother!
So do I.
I hope you’re right.
It's possible that he's ALREADY done that.
Trump is usually two or three moves ahead of his opponent.
I would like to see a suit to have the FISA court decisions set aside for having been obtained by fraud arising to a conspiracy so as to cause the rats leaving the ship to become a lemming flood.

He didn’t fire until he saw the whites of their eyes.
Unnerving for us not in the thick of it, but correct tactic.
