Is this a trick question?

Whether or not the Steele document was the key document, they did use FISA court to provide legal cover for surveilling Trump.

Obama historically always has the goods on his opponents. He surveilled congressmen, journalists, his political opponents, with or without legal cover. It would be unlike him not to surveil Trump.

Now, since Clinton didn’t win, the agencies that got involved face legal jeopardy for their role in it. Hence the fake investigation. They absolutely must and will indict someone to justify themselves, else they face the possibility of career-ending consequences that could land some of them in jail.

The president can disclose warrant applications proving whether it’s true

He doesn't need to disclose them. All that is needed is to answer the question yes or no.

Yes. And it’s treason.

There really is a lot that Trump could do or direct get done—disclose information, respond to Congress and share requested information, etc. That he doesn’t suggest he sees more value in letting the DOJ and FBI twist in the wind, destroying whatever remaining credibility they have. Eventually, when the time is right, he’ll step in, and clean house. Well, that’s my hopeful side of the whole affair. The other is that he is leaving it to Sessions, who fell asleep, and the cockroaches are running wild because no one is watching.

the real question is, does Trump already know the answer?

Trump will wait until Meuller’s actions have all played out.

When Trump knows his case is in the bag, he will pull this FISA documentation out and....down come the dominoes. (or is it ‘dominos’...I better call up Dan Quayle to verify)

I do think that Trump will be able to checkmate Mueller.

In the meantime, Hannity and Ingraham will be serving it up on a plate to the public, so that it all makes sense when Trump reveals the Fruit of the Poisonous Tree.

Ingraham referenced this last night on her show.

The wild card, if this moves up the food chain to the USCC will be Roberts...who still has Obama’s knife to his throat

I only hope that the DOJ can be the ultimate firewall between Trump and Mueller, without anything making it to the USCC

He may know everything but just cant blurt it out all at once. They would paint him as a conspiracy nut and a sore winner. Better in drips and drabs and build the caze in the court of public opinion.

It's pretty obvious that Trump is going out of his way to go through proper legal channels and avoiding even the appearance of impropriety in his take down of the entrenched scumbags in Washington.

His approach is seemingly very ambitious. He is not out hunting for one or two scalps to make a few headlines and garner publicity.

He is going after the entire corps of corrupt and politicized upper and mid level operatives burrowed in from the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations

Trump is going to clean house.

There is no doubt that Trump could end a lot of the mystery surrounding the dossier. Why he’s letting the drama continue to play out is baffling. Trump’s reticence is causing the seeds of doubt to grow. The truth will ultimately come out and when it does I hope Trump’s inaction will be explained.

Nevertheless, President Trump would have been a principal victim had there been an abuse of power, and he has the authority to end all speculation by disclosing the relevant information. Since he apparently refuses to do so, one must assume that the intelligence agencies and Obama national-security officials had good reasons for taking the actions they took.

Andy, Andy, Andy ... You really don't get Donald Trump at all, do you?

Take a look back at this classic memory from the 2016 campaign:

"John Miller" Audio Tape Hits the News

Pay particular attention to the segment that starts around the 4:25 mark. This episode was a silly trolling exercise by Donald Trump in the middle of the 2016 primary campaign, and it involved a taped conversation where he allegedly called a reporter and pretended to be his own publicist, the mysterious "John Muller."

Donald Trump sat on this tape for 25 years before he apparently sent it to the Washington Post himself.

TWENTY ... FIVE ... YEARS.

If I were one of the senior leaders in the Obama administration I would be spending the next decade looking over my shoulder constantly. LMAO.

Puzzling bits of logic by McCarthy:

“Moreover, Steele, who is said to have enjoyed a good reputation among U.S. intelligence agents, maintains that 70 to 90 percent of his reporting is accurate. He believes his sources are reliable and notes that, though not verified, neither has most of the information been negated.”

If the dossier has not been verified, how can the reporting be considered accurate. If reports that I am a billionaire have never been negated, does that mean I am a billionaire?

“But it would not be true that the FBI and Justice Department fraudulently presented the dossier to the FISA Court as if it were a refined U.S. intelligence analysis; instead, they would have presented information the FBI had developed independently after being tipped off by the dossier.”

If it had been presented in that fashion, then it would still be a complete fraud. There has been no FBI independently developed information — it would have been front and center months and months ago.

Anti-Trumper McCarthy now singing a different tune. Where were these observations a few weeks ago?

Timing is everything. And who knows what DOJ is investigating and whether releasing the information at this time will jeopardize that investigation. IMO Jim Jordan already knows the answers to the questions he posed at the Wray hearings.

Patience boys. Hold your fire until you see the whites of their eyes. Let Mueller shoot his wad first. And then the sh*t will hit the fan.

t;ld version of the article is this:

“Trump can declassified information himself and order the AG to release or have his resignation in hand. Why hasn’t he done so. It must mean where there is smoke there is fire.” -Quoted & paraphrased,
