Michael Knowles: Trump obstructed Dem attempt to overturn 2016 election with a coup
Fox News ^ | 27 April 2019 | Michael Knowles

Yes, President Trump committed obstruction. From the moment he defeated Hillary Clinton, Democrats have tried to overturn the 2016 election, but Trump has obstructed their efforts every step of the way. This was obstruction in the interests of justice. The president should be applauded for it. First, partisans within the Justice Department spied on the Trump presidential campaign. They used a mainstream news article to obtain a warrant to surveil Trump’s campaign staff by misleading a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court judge about the source of the article.

In fact, the news story was based on unverified opposition research funded by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. Recently uncovered text messages between disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page suggest this surveillance continued after the election, shifting its focus from the Trump campaign to the transition team of then-President-elect Trump. Then, according to fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, several Justice Department and FBI officials discussed staging what would have amounted to a coup to oust the duly elected president of the United States from office. The coup would have been staged by invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office.

Here are the last lines of this totally true, genius article:

Now Democrats would like to impeach Trump for obstructing their repeated attempts to overthrow him.

As far as many Democrats are concerned, Trump’s real crime was winning the presidency in the first place.

Mueller colluded with Democrats changing the outcome of the 2018 election and Trump is guilty of obstructing Injustice.

The Dems will be happy to know that they actually didn’t lie then.

“Trump has obstructed their efforts every step of the way. “

Nah. Trump whined and tweeted but did nothing to stop any of this. It failed because they had nothing. Trump knew that and also knew it would play itself out over the first two years thus providing him the next two years running up to the 2020 election to enact revenge. We will see if he does that.

You are correct. Mueller is the one who obstructed justice. He knew very early that there was no collusion but he hid that knowledge long enough to effect the outcome of an election.

Mr. Trump defeated her Thighness.

For that, they will never forgive him.

The will of the people and the Electoral College be damned.

I expect to be on trial one day for the crime of ‘obstructing’ a muslim’s attempt to murder me.

This is called sarcasm, I think, or is it so far from the truth?

It is good people keep posting on Spygate, even when it is all just old news, like this post. This is actually a weak article missing dozens of necessary facts about Spygate. But it still serves to help those people just now waking up to Spygate. If you have been following this for 2 years, then ypu are hungry for new information. If you are just discovering the details of Spygate, then any and all articles that move you along to gaining full knowledge, is a good thing.

These articles serve a purpose. It does nobody good for us to demean them just because it is old news to us. Everybody is coming into this at their own pace.

Now that Rush Limbaugh is talking about it daily, their are millions of people hearing it for the first time. They are late to the party, but most welcome. Rush has a huge audience and Spygate is now gaining serious traction due to him, enen though Hannity beat him to it by 2 years.

It is all good. We want everybody on board with this conspiracy by the Rats and FBI/DOJ to oust Trump, so the more articles the better. Just keep the drim beat going, so Barr has to ptosecute the Traitors.
