Scorched earth still rages on in America.
Last week President Trump gave a decent speech in front of Congress and got 24 hours of positive media coverage, so it seemed likely the Dems would launch another hit in the media to destroy Trump’s positive media news cycle. Sure enough the allegations against Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, hit pieces in both the Washington Post and New York Times set off a Twitter frenzy March 1st.
President Trump just went nuclear yesterday morning, accusing President Obama of ordering wiretaps on Trump Tower during the election in a tweetstorm:
Trump tweeted early Saturday morning in one part of a six-tweet tirade that began just after 6:30 a.m.Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my “wires tapped” in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!
Is it legal for a sitting President to be “wire tapping” a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!
The President went on to compare the alleged tapping of his phones to Watergate and called Obama “bad (or “sick).”“How low has President Obama gone to tap my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy,” Trump tweeted.How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!
But two former senior US officials quickly dismissed Trump’s accusations out of hand.“Just nonsense,” said one former senior US intelligence official.Another former senior US official with direct knowledge of investigations by the Justice Department under the Obama administration said Trump’s phones were never tapped.“This did not happen. It is false. Wrong,” the former official told CNN.A spokesman for Obama, Kevin Lewis, called “any suggestion” that Obama or any White House official ordered surveillance against Trump “simply false.”
At this point, it’s time for leaders in both parties to stand up and be Americans first.
The President owes us details on his allegations.
We are quickly reaching a point of constitutional crisis.
Today is Day #46 of the Trump presidency and assuredly America’s credibility and stability cannot survive 4 years of unrelenting nuclear option, scorched earth partisan information war.
Best thing for America would be a complete outing of the massive wholesale public corruption of the 2016 Clinton presidential campaign and the Trump presidential campaign.
We need answers on the Trump/Russian influence questions swirling.
We need answers on the Clinton scorched earth efforts, to include collusion with the media & Obama administration efforts.
We need email answers on both Trump associates’ connections with Wikileaks and Hillary’s server.
Beyond the Russian influence hysteria we need answers on Abedin’s email stash and the House Dems Pakistani IT peeps, who are under investigation.
Just some facts would be welcome.
