Christ, Trump is just a very stupid person isn't he?

Republicans are in charge of all the committees investigating these things. By putting out this red meat for his rabid base, he's essentially pressuring them to look into imaginary breitbart articles and also to not investigate his real crimes fully. And we've seen that they are susceptible to pressure (Chaffetz, Nunes for example).

Can Obama sue?

I want to see more scandal, lawsuits, and possibly impeachment. That's what the country needs.

Yeah, I suppose you're right. Wishful thinking on my part I guess.

He can, but he won't and the suit would be quickly dismissed before there is any discovery.

It seems pretty obviously how this is going to end.

The administration is looking for a dignified exit strategy to the ****storm that Trump kicked up with his idiotic tweets about Obama. If there is an "investigation" by some Congressional committee members, it will conclude that that there was no evidence that Obama personally did anything wrong. But Republicans will suggest that there was plenty of evidence of agency overreaching re Trump/Russia that occurred on Obama's watch, if not at his explicit direction. Thus, Trump's concerns, and his request for an investigation, were perfectly appropriate in light of this overreaching.

This is batso insane.

We do know what one former US President, Dwight D Eisenhower, would have done if the D-Day landings had failed. He prepared two communiques in advance. The first was the one that SHAEF actually issued to the BBC at 09.05 DBST 6 June 1944.

The second, which was happily never used, was in case of disaster.

So, not much like scapegoater-in-chief Adolf Hitler. And not much like Ike's successor Donald Trump either.

Bush also has a new book that he pimping everywhere and anywhere. Even without Trump, Bush would still be all over the media plugging his book, IMO.

Maybe because she'd been an actual judge, Pirro seems to have a little trouble accepting Lewandowski's Obama claims.

Fairly certain Lewandowski is semi-******ed. It seems like everybody and their mom are trying to distance themselves from Carter Page.

Lol, Lewandowski reaching way deep into the well bringing up Jeremiah Wright.

I think beating him to death with it would be overkill. Just let him drown.

What's the current odds of impeachment?

50/50

I agree with the first part but don't see why it would be quickly dismissed.

Politicians don't get any special protection from libel - although as a public figure Obama would need to prove Trump's statements were made with knowledge (or reckless disregard) that they were false. Not sure Obama could do this, but think his claim would be strong enough to survive a motion to dismiss and get to discovery.

Little Marco Rubio was on CNN saying "Blah,blah,blah, we'll get to the bottom of it."

They ain't going to do ****.

Clapper saying there's no FISA court order on Trump Tower.

So basically this whole ****storm is Trump trying to draw attention away from Russia.

GOP lining up solidly behind Trumpy. #TheyreAllTrumpBotsNow

The story was put in place by Mark Levin in the first place, then parroted out by the Orange Monster to the rest of the press:

Fox News doesn't care that he's FOS, they happily have this guy Mark Levin on their channel to blast out false claims about Obama:

.

Fwiw on Kimmel he said tha 100% of proceeds go to the families of military so pimping I think isn't the correct term to frame the situation.

It's just that T****P is so bad GWB looks like James Madison lol.
