As Bette Davis once said, "Fasten your seat belts it's going to be a bumpy night" We are living in a game-changing time in our history and this is just the beginning. Thank God we have President Trump.
Not sure how Sessions rescuing himself from the Russian thing set a trap for the wire-tap thing.
Seems like Trump could have gone after this wire-tap thing regardless.
Donald Trump again shows he is heaven sent. Will be enjoyable to sit back and watch how this unravels.
Your analysis was a pleasure to read. Thanks for taking the time to lay it all out so clearly; I couldn’t argue with a single word.
BUMP for later!!
I hope you’re right.
I’m watcbing the cable media and don’t see much positive for Trump at this point.
The Fox Saturday JV team is much worse than the weekday crew.
CNN of course just covers the denials.
It seems to me that Trump should have held a news conference over this.
Im not usually prone to hand wringing but I have a bad feeling about this.
The media will portray Trump as just becoming unhinged.
Again, I hope you’re right but,Trump better have evidence because he is now going up against the ‘Teflon Negro’.
No new press pool reports since 9:43 AM (EST) this morning. He’s been holed up in the Palm Beach library since then meeting with unknown people. This has me quite curious, especially since the big NSC meeting is set for today at 4:00.
I always enjoy your posts.
And the response will come from the media that “dictator Trump” is trying to jail his political enemies that are just trying to “expose” his evil ways. This is going to be all out war between the Trump team, Obama, the DNC and the media. All cards end up on the table.
What, if anything, does anyone in the Trump administration plan to do about this? Has anything been done at this point that anyone outside of the administration knows about?
Excellent!
I hope you’re right.

<<< “Reports have now come out that President Trump is furious over Sessions decision to recuse himself, saying Sessions should not have done it.
Washington Post reporter Robert Costa released two Twitter posts Saturday morning, saying, Trump left WH in a fury on Friday, fuming about Sessions recusal and telling aides that Sessions shouldnt have recused himself.
In a second tweet, he continued, President remarked to staff that Sessions/WHDOJ should have done more to counter Sessions story, that it was bull, per aides familiar.
Evan McMurray of ABC News took it even further, reporting that President Trump went ballistic and summoned senior staff to the Oval Office before leaving for Mar-a-Lago Friday.
By Sessions recusing himself, the reins for the Russia investigation were handed over to Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente, who is an Obama appointee.” >>>
Laying traps to catch aides leaking? Or purposeful leaks to keep the shadow gov confused? Because i refuse to believe Trump would lose control like this reporter claims unless he was acting. Also, Sessions would not recuse himself w/o discussing with Trump first, especially with Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente, appointed by Obama in 2015, waiting to take over the “Russia” farce investigation.
Thank you, LS. Well done!
There was definitely some miscommunication on the team. Just hours before Sessions recused himself, Trump said he didn’t need to recuse himself. Doesn’t make sense does it? And let’s not kid ourselves...Team Trump has taken some pretty good hits..Flynn, Sessions, nominees backing off, etc.
Something bothered me about Session’s news conference..he didn’t look very sure of himself...I expected him to come out with some authority, but he really seemed on the defensive.
Another thing...I’d know that Team Trump turned the issue around on Obama by overriding his EO to slide Eric Holder’s buddy into the slot...but why didn’t Sessions just wait for his deputy AG to be confirmed, then recuse himself. Or for that matter, just announce you recusing yourself when the Deputy AG is confirmed. I don’t see anything wrong or illegal in that. Who cares if the Dems and Rino’s scream bloody murder...with everything else being thrown at them ...who cares???
I believe it’s true that Trump flipped out over this ... after all he just said Sessions shouldn’t recuse himself and gets off the plane to hear just the opposite...what does that show about communication in the WH....I’d be mad as hell!!!
Everything can’t be explained away by saying it’s 3 dimensional chess...this was a mistake and a bad one regardless if they trust the acting Deputy.
You’re right .. I am looking for a lot of spilled blood.
First of all, whoever processed that wiretapping NEEDS TO BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY; WITH PREJUDICE.
Second, something needs to be done to Obama; something to stop him from having access to any government office - since he has now proven he has abused his power.
I don’t suppose either will happen .. but it seems to me we’re giving in too easily - as usual.
LS, I look forward to you being proved 100% correct on your post. I look forward to that with great expectation and high confidence.
Anything in business/politics is negotiable, but as Trump knows, always negotiate from a position of strength.
