Twitter makes this too easy

If this isn’t “collusion” then what exactly would collusion be? https://t.co/JXbNaKBixO

"NO (such thing as) COLLUSION!" (Makes it easier, doesn't it?)

If there isn’t an @FBI CI investigation currently underway on Trump there may need to revisit why not?
He just:
1. Undercut our IC
2. Encouraged foreign actors to attack his political rivals
3. Marketed himself as a foreign laundromat and 4. Put a for sale sign on his forehead https://t.co/Ig3h1310ei

Part of me wants to say: "You're just now noticing?" OTOH, helluva distraction, huh?

This is an open invitation to foreign governments to commit crimes to re-elect Trump.

"You say that like it's a bad thing."

Which, yeah, it is:

“There’s any number of crimes that could be violated here,” said Williams. “There’s campaign finance violations. And it’s ironic that we’re having this conversation, literally, Chris, the day Donald Trump Jr. testified before Congress that he didn’t know that he was receiving value potentially wrongly from a foreign actor, but clearly his father doesn’t help that case, does he?”

Williams continued to list offenses. “So there is all the campaign finance violations. Look, if you’re using computers, there’s wire fraud questions. If you know what you’re doing and interacting with a foreign government, you start getting into the realm of espionage and national security offenses and then computer hacking and other sort of computer offenses, too. So there are a lot of things that are implicated when you start talking about taking the aid of a foreign government in our federal election system. And the president’s just opening the door to that. Look, I’d like to say it’s shocking at this point.”

“Let’s use an instructive example from 2000, when the Gore campaign just got a package on its front doorstep of, not even foreign intelligence, but about the Bush campaign,” said Williams. “They immediately called the FBI because something seemed kind of fishy about it. That’s what you do and that’s when you’re behaving properly.”

"Behaving properly."  What a quaint idea.

But Twitter just keeps on giving:

Trump this week: It’s wrong to spy on Kim Jong Un but OK to spy on Joe Biden. https://t.co/AhebQFfia1

And who among us hasn't?

"I would take help from a foreign adversary against U.S. citizens running against me and not notify the FBI" is about as clear a violation of the oath to protect and defend the Constitution, against all enemies foreign and domestic, as there could be.

Besides, what could go wrong, right? Or is this a date that will live in infamy?

Remember 12 JUN 2019. Today was the day a sitting President announced he would accept clandestine help from a hostile power to stay in office.

Translation for the cheap seats: Donald J. Trump, our 45th president, admitted that he is a traitor. On camera.https://t.co/C9hLDR4tcj

Yeah, more'n likely.

Try and wrap your mind around the reality that this guy is hiring and firing the top law enforcement officials in our country. This is the stuff of mob movies. https://t.co/uQrQvMjtCP

But really, is it surprising?

The only thing newsier than doubling down on openness to foreign "information" would have been acknowledging that they did something wrong or that they had learned from the mistake.

— Liam Donovan (@LPDonovan) June 13, 2019

No; no, it really isn't. Ain't that a shame? Well, not to a man who is shameless.

“This is nuts,” said Washington Post columnist Max Boot. “It’s an issue that Chris Wray needs to consider resigning over. The president is basically saying ‘I will disregard the FBI and commit illegal acts.’ That is extremely alarming behavior. And by the way, Don, can you imagine what Donald Trump would say?”

“The Attorney general also agrees with the FBI director,” Lemon cut in to say.
“Absolutely! This is the law,” replied Boot. “There is no doubt that this is the law, and this is the oath that the president takes which he is now violating. Can you imagine what Trump would say if Joe Biden came out and said ‘Hey, Iran, if you have information on Trump please share it with me.’ Do you think Trump would be saying ‘That’s okay,’ or would he be saying ‘That’s treason?’ ”

You know if this was a plot point in one if the "West Wing" wannabe shows about D.C. or the White House, it would be condemned as wildly fictional and to incredible for reality.

You know I'm right.
