I wonder what else President Trump will learn of in the coming months. Welcome to The Swamp.

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.
You will get it!!
I wonder what else President Trump will learn of in the coming months. Welcome to The Swamp.
If ANYTHING, ANYTHING like an assassination or even an attempt at such will mean that the life expectancy of every collectivist “democrat” in America will become problematic. Hurt my president, and it will be “Katy, bar the door” on all of these treasonous a$$holes. Be warned.
looks like obamma just hit the propeller..... SHTF
Agree.
I don't want revenge. I want JUSTICE SERVED! Not just for the little guys. This is something that millions of us care about deeply. Not for revenge. Quoting Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn again:
“In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.”
Cannae is an excellent metaphor. The Romans were excellent individual soldiers, physically strong, moral, and obedient, but that’s why they kept going forward when Hannibal’s center was intentionally weakened. Of couse, this created the conditions for envelopment and the Romans were surrounded on all sides and crushed even when they had significant numerical superiority at the beginning of the battle. Napoleon did something similar on the Pratzen ridge in Austerlitz.
Trump does of course need to be careful because he is playing the matador with the Dems and rinos are rushing towards the red flag. When the flanking movement does come, which I would presume would be 0bama and team indictments, the media will portray this as a political vendetta by Trump. Trump has to make sure that the indictments are airtight and unassailable. I also wonder how much info on pedogate/ sex trafficking he has on his enemies. This would seem to be the ultimate “Trump” card.
I have running through my head the song " Who Let the Dogs Out." The hunt is on.
Lets Roll!
The Russia thing may have been the phony baloney pretext to wiretap Trump.
That little man has done too much.
Justice for Benghasi and seal team six, just for starters.
Read this post when you get a chance.
General public must be shown hard evidence, sooner rather than later.
2)Both will stonewall with the help of 95% of the media, and 47% of the population of the US (51% in Ca !)
3)Both have been steeped in, and groomed for the movement from early youth, and would more likely be painted as heros of the "revolution", willingly, before being used as leverage to bring down the very treason and treachery they are a part of.
Although, I could see the benefit of waterboarding the both of them for info prior to hanging them out to dry, so to speak.
It’s all good, but the head of the snake will never see jail, just like Hillary, he is essentially immune. We have to face the fact that no judge or prosecutor will go down in history for putting a former president or Hillary in jail.
Trump needs to put a few lower level people on trial and jail them asap. This would stop all of this sedition because Obama and the other top people rely on expendable minions to do the dirty work. Once these people a made to realize they are not protected, they will stop all activities instantly.
...the Russian election thingie...
And what exactly is the Russian election "thingie"? What is the Left alleging Trump and/or his people did? Is whatever they are alleging even possible?
1. We do not have one single election. We have 51 (50 states and DC).2. Every state has their own method of conducting elections, and most (if not all) conduct them at the county level of management. Some counties use electronic means. Others still use paper ballots. None use a method connected to the internet.
3. There are 3,141 counties and county equivalents in the 50 States and DC.
4. So are we to believe the scurrilous allegation that the Russians literally hacked the election when our methods and jurisdictions are so diffuse and different?
5. What the Left is actually attempting to get people to believe is that Trump and/or his people colluded with the Russians to leak the Clinton and Podesta emails.
6. So far they have not produced a shred of evidence that anything even remotely like that happened. If they had such evidence, they would have produced it prior to the election in an attempt to guarantee a Clinton win.
So using simple logic and common sense, this entire Russian "thingie" is a completely fabricated lie. I do not put it past the Obama crowd to literally create evidence of some kind of paper or electronic trail, but it is all a lie of monumental proportions.
Trump is not the DOJ, so “going after criminals” is not his job. It’s the DOJ’s job. They should do their job.
Lt Col Tony Schaffer was on Fox after Geraldo and called his statement “idiotic”.
Here’s Schaffer’s 1st time on F&F this a.m. - the 2nd time he was on isn’t up yet.

To be honest, I wish the American people really did have such fury in them. I doubt it, though, because we have become a very soft and deeply divided people.
I want blood LS. This is the greatest political crime n the history of this country. Much will emerge soon. It is my guess that we now have the fisa warrant in our hands and the supporting affidavit, That is a Justice Department file. Trump delayed to strike, as you point out, to get the proof.He is not just going on Breitbart and Levin.
Note that Obama has gone in a hole. That is amazing admission to me. We all see now why they wanted to create this false narrative of “Russian”as somehow having substance. They knew when Trump won they lost control of these facts and documents. They will now say — “Well,everybody know the Russians were hacking to influence the election and we just thought Trump was in on it” But they don’t have a centilla of actual admissible evidence. I do not believe the Russians wetre hacking anything!!! Three thoughts here. Given the egregious and voluminous violations of national security by Hillary Clinton would not it be more likely to tap her server? and 2. Where are the surveillance summaries that are volumes of reports done daily on the Fisa Warrants . 3. Where is the affidavit and exhibits supporting the fisa warrant on the opposition political candidate 30 days before the election!!! and why was it turned down in June.
I agree that this is not covered in the recusal.This is criminal wire tap and abuse of presidential power like the world has never seen. Nixon did nothing like this!! Can you imagine if he had? I want BLOOD!!
It would be nice to get the Black Block protestor fascists to stand down from Berkeley-style violence, too.
