The Obamagate Scam

Mark my word...

Obama and Biden will never be seriously threatened by investigation, subpoena, etc.

This is all a carnival ruse with two ends.

One to damage Biden with fake outrage as we head into the election.

Two, to set a precedent that Presidents should not investigate or indict there predecessors.

So when Trump leaves office, we will be reminded ad nauseum about how Trump graciously decided not to pursue Obama despite all the despicable things he supposedly did. Of course, that is supposed to mean that Trump should remain untouched

It has already moved to phase 2 where Barr is throwing cold water on it to make sure the serious people in Washington realize that this is only a Social Media outrage and not a real one.

2. By combining Pres Obama's name with "gate" you are accepting his framing of this nonsense

Just stop doing it.

By continually repeating this marketing ploy you are giving it life.

Stop.

whether it may be worthwhile to triple-dog dare numbnutz into actually investigating his predecessors, as we're secure in the knowledge that there's nothing to fear. Precedent is set and rumpco is exposed as being full of shit.

All the dirt on Flynn, going way back before the phone calls with the Russian Ambassador, will come screaming out into the light of day. A lot of skeletons will tumble out of the closet.

Comey, McCabe, Brennan also definitely know. Going after anyone on Trump's hit list is dangerous... to Trump.

Egg him on about ignoring the bigliest scandal in history. Taunt him mercilessly. He'll take the bait.
