re: #46 Targetpractice

That’s rather the point, get Congressional Repubs to do it for the purposes of burying anything inconvenient to the administration. If they had any real intention of finding out the truth, they’d appoint a special prosecutor. Problem is a special prosecutor, once appointed, can’t easily be kept on a leash without making the whole thing into a joke.

Perhaps, but Trump is not exactly a strategic thinker, he’s going to demand that the Congressional investigation be made public, and once that happens, if the GOP is playing fast and loose with the facts, the Dems will be able to dump additional information.

Plus, let’s keep in mind, if it turns out there was a warrant (which there probably was), that means a court agreed with whoever was investigating that there was substantial evidence to support additional surveillance. If there’s something there, Trump is screwed. If there’s nothing there, he loses what little credibility he has. The only way that Trump “wins” on this, is if there is actual proof that the Obama Administration acted illegally; which is highly unlikely.
