I’ll say it again, I’m no Donald Trump fan. I didn’t vote for him and I think he’s a radical egotistical narcissist. And I despise Hillary Clinton and didn’t vote for her either.
Having said that, I just want to say that as a true nonpartisan, (I despise political parties), I’m appalled at what I see going on politically. It’s oh so apparent that leftist media and even America’s security and intelligence agencies are hell bent on bringing this President down.
If an incoming National Security Advisor talking to a foreign nations leaders before he actually takes the position officially, is a crime, there’s something screwed up with the law.
When Democrats, major leftist media and the neo-cons John McCain and Lindsey Graham scream bloody murder for investigations and hearings to attempt to crucify Flynn and Trump because of Flynn’s so-called crime, and nary a word is mentioned about the real crime whereby somebody in the intelligence agencies leaked the classified material to the media, then priorities are ass backwards and or the only REAL agenda is to embarrass and bring down Trump.
It’s disgusting and enraging and it would be sad if it weren’t so damned pathetic!
You're oh so wrong.
No, it's not illegal for NSA director to speak with other nations before taking office. It is unethical, however, for one with inside information because of his connection with intelligence, to unethically and possibly illegally GIVE that information to an enemy foreign country, and have a discussion about it....and then lie about it afterwards. He had multiple communications with Russia and discussed the sanctions (which were a United States secret at that time) at length with them.
The news organizations are merely reporting what the Trump administration is doing and saying. If you find it appalling, that's because what htey have said and done IS appalling. It's historical, in fact.
Can you think of one other instance where a political operative who has the President's ear (and is of the inner circle) has the belief, and then hte nerve to say to the country, that they WILL not be questioned about their actions? That's dictator talk. In America, we not only have the right to question the actions of the government branches, we have the
duty to question them.
Notice that no one is going on tv and claiming Trump wasn't born in America. Remember that the birther movement arose and went on for YEARS against Obama. A totally false claim, aimed at egging on their supporters, creating hatred toward the black President, undermining his Presidency. TRUMP WAS A BIRTHER.
He didn't admit that Obama was born in the U.S. until 2016. That is not what is going on with this administration.
What is going on is reporting of extremely unusual behavior by the administration, so much so that the mental health of Trump is being questioned by his own Party members. There is something wrong with him.
He calls a press conference after inauguration. Instead of talking procedures or policies, he rant in anger that they are showing unflattering pictures of him and are being unfair to him. Very bizarre. Such things should be reported to the public.
He is attacking the very democracy he has a duty to protect, when he attacks the judiciary and the free press. This is important...and unprecedented.
I think you've missed a lot of what is going on in the administration.
Did you know, for instance, that Trump knew a month ago about Flynn's conversations with Russia, where he told them the sanctions that were supposedly confidential, and that Trump knew that Flynn had lied about that to others including the V.P.? If the press didn't report this, you wouldn't know. This is important. This is unethical, if not illegal, behavior by the President of the United States. It matters.
There is a real issue with the fact that a presidential campaign worked with an enemy foreign nation to interfere with America's democracy and election process. This is very serious and cannot be overstated. This goes to the very security of our democracy. This goes beyond political party and would apply if the President were Trump or Obama or Bush or Clinton.
