Trumpy to release Nunes memo even though he hasn't read it.

Adam Schiff "In case you were wondering how seriously the President is taking the security review of the Nunes memo, @POTUS said he was 100% certain he would release it — even though the WH said he hadn’t read it."

I mean FOUR PAGES!?!?

That's a hell of a lot of reading.

(probably didn't need that, but)

coming from a very questionable source (Nunes) who is doing solely for partisan purposes and definitely not one of 'this country first' basis. It also sounds like retaliation too, based upon Nunes own words that he was 'pissed' off at the FBI (and perhaps other sources identified in this so-called Memo) for not revealing information that Nunes requested supposedly on a timely basis.

As someone in DU already commented, this is similar to McCarthyism, a similar 'witch hunt' in 1940s/50s.

This kind of blatant abuse comes back to bite the hands of those that propagate these kinds of falsehoods and / or partisan politics, and definitely won't endure the majority of voters to these tRUMP toadies.

Democrats need to release a memo first!

They already know what's in the rethugs' memo. And they know the facts. Don't let the Dark Side frame the issue. And get it just as widespread as Nunez's will be. This is not the time to go high, when they go low!
