What are you doing to reverse the situation in 2018 during the mid-terms? Do you think that Pelosi and Schumer have any game plan other than ranting about things they have zero control over?
No we feel like we have to save the country from this nut, and thats bigger than how many seats we win or lose. This is about saving our institutions, not our party.

He threw gas on his own fire in the hopes that he could just burn the whole thing down.
My theory is he wants the whole thing - the whole Russia thing, whatever that is - to come to light. He's clearly buckling under the pressure and anxiety and lack of control he has trying to keep the Russian issue under control. It's eating him alive.
This would be a reasonable interpretation if POTUS were a normal man, but he's not. I doubt he recognizes that he did anything wrong or that someone as special as him should have to follow any rules.
He is the textbook example of a guy born with a silver spoon in his mouth who feels deprived because it wasn't gold.

I love how this is all about partisan bickering for you and not what is, no matter how it turns out, a political scandal that makes Watergate look like a high school student council election. Either (1) the former POTUS used his DOJ to spy on his party's rival in an election, (2) the sitting POTUS has fabricated such an allegation whole-cloth, or (3) the current POTUS was legally the subject of a national security investigation.
None of the above are good, and the Democrats' leveraging majorities in the House and Senate to give poor people and people with chronic illnesses healthcare doesn't even come close to how bad the above are.
Exactly, it's deflection by GOP apologists. It's all they have now. For the 20-30% of Trumpkins who actually understand that what Trump is doing is "unpresidented" in every way, deflecting to the political angle is all they have left. Now that Comey is apparently working to undermine Trump's ridiculous claims, all these jackasses can do is say "Ooh, you lost!" Well, the fact of the matter is WE ALL lost--they just helped it along even though they knew better.
As for the other typical Trumpkins who are just blathering idiots--I honestly don't give $.02 about them anymore at all. Let them eat meth.

Red herring ... Trump never said Obama personally "ordered" the wiretapping. The allegation was that the Obama administration engaged eavesdropping on political campaign during national election.
Now the congress has agreed to investigate it - let's wait for the facts from the formal investigation.
Try again
I still don't see the word Obama "ordered" it. You do know DOJ/FBI, NSA and all other IC agencies worked for Obama. Obama was ultimately responsible for things happened under his administration. His non-denial denial yesterday was playing the same word game NY Times is playing.

OMG. It's right there. Who is the bad(sick) guy?! The FBI? The DOJ? GTFO.

Words matter. Asswipe-in-Chief owns his when he calls Obama sick and falsely claims that his predecessor had the phones "tapped." You're enabling the idiocracy.
