    John Brennan briefed Reid et. al. in August 2016. Of course, Brennan pleaded with Reid (wink, wink) not to write a letter.

    The election was gonna be close no matter what.
    There was a very significant movement in the Republican Party to nominate Trump out of a very large field as well.
    Conclusion: The country was very divided. There were a large number of Americans who considered our orange clown; this has to be respected and more importantly, understood.

    Boots can If and But all he wants facts are many people chose Trump twice.

    Sadly imo, the US still has a solid 1/3 respect a lying cheap salesman.

    When did Harry Reid write a letter to James Comey?
    Who briefed Harry Reid on dossier?
    John Brennan briefed Reid et. al. in August 2016. Of course, Brennan pleaded with Reid (wink, wink) not to write a letter.

    Spurminator: I can't see how it hurts to try to understand what someone is trying to say.

    Many of my people are Trump voters; many of them express relevant pop conspiracy hypotheses.
    It doesn't hurt, I've just found it fruitless. Many of my people are as well.

    Here's how it works.

    1. Presume conclusion that validates Donald Trump's innocence and/or unfair treatment by the media/deep state/etc
    2. Discredit or ignore questions or explanations as to why their conclusion is logically impractical

    In short, don't expect your questions to be answered.

    If you like, consider my response a piggyback of yours. The questions should continue to be asked, because these useful idiots deserve to be challenged.

    Barack Obama ended his Presidency with a 59% approval rating and the last Gallup Poll put his retrospective approval at 63%.
    He's also proven to be better at getting Republicans to the polls than Democrats when he isn't on the ticket.

    I know this is a sports board, but this is lazy smack akin to saying teams should avoid Lebron James because the Cavs lost the Championship.

    Hillary Clinton had a little more to do with getting Republicans to the polls than Barack Obama. She won't be on the ticket this time. Dems may still lose but saying it's because of Barack Obama is not something you can justify beyond "They lost so I'm right."

    For 2018 campaigning, the Dems need a liberal that Republicans aren't reflexively hostile towards, like... (checks notes)... uh...

    They'll keep the superdelegates, so the Dem establishment's choice, reliably as corrupted by BigMoney and well right of center as Hillary and Slick Willie, will start 500 Dem nominating votes ahead of any lefty challenger, just as Bernie did.

    No more McGoverns, nor Carters for the Dems.

    They just passed the anti-Bernie rule, that the nominee must be a confessed, official Dem and must run as a Dem.

    The superdelegates don't come into play in 2018. We're talking about a Democrat advocate for the midterms, not the Presidential candidate.

    Hmmm

    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/06/u...n-brennan.html


    WASHINGTON — The C.I.A. told senior lawmakers in classified briefings last summer that it had information indicating that Russia was working to help elect Donald J. Trump president, a finding that did not emerge publicly until after Mr. Trump’s victory months later, former government officials say.

    The briefings indicate that intelligence officials had evidence of Russia’s intentions to help Mr. Trump much earlier in the presidential campaign than previously thought. The briefings also reveal a critical split last summer between the C.I.A. and counterparts at the F.B.I., where a number of senior officials continued to believe through last fall that Russia’s cyberattacks were aimed primarily at disrupting America’s political system, and not at getting Mr. Trump elected, according to interviews.

    The former officials said that in late August — 10 weeks before the election — John O. Brennan, then the C.I.A. director, was so concerned about increasing evidence of Russia’s election meddling that he began a series of urgent, individual briefings for eight top members of Congress, some of them on secure phone lines while they were on their summer break.

    It is unclear what new intelligence (dossier ) might have prompted the classified briefings. But with concerns growing both internally and publicly at the time about a significant Russian breach of the Democratic National Committee, the C.I.A. began seeing signs of possible connections to the Trump campaign, the officials said. By the campaign’s final weeks, Congress and the intelligence agencies were racing to understand the scope of the Russia threat.

    In an Aug. 25 briefing for Harry Reid, then the top Democrat in the Senate, Mr. Brennan indicated that Russia’s hackings appeared aimed at helping Mr. Trump win the November election, according to two former officials with knowledge of the briefing.

    The officials said Mr. Brennan also indicated that unnamed advisers to Mr. Trump might be working with the Russians to interfere in the election. The F.B.I. and two congressional committees are now investigating that claim, focusing on possible communications and financial dealings between Russian affiliates and a handful of former advisers to Mr. Trump. So far, no proof of collusion has emerged publicly.

    Mr. Trump has rejected any suggestion of a Russian connection as “ridiculous” and “fake news.” The White House has also sought to redirect the focus from the investigation and toward what Mr. Trump has said, with no evidence, was President Barack Obama’s wiretapping of phones in Trump Tower during the presidential campaign.

    The C.I.A. and the F.B.I. declined to comment for this article, as did Mr. Brennan and senior lawmakers who were part of the summer briefings.

    In the August briefing for Mr. Reid, the two former officials said, Mr. Brennan indicated that the C.I.A., focused on foreign intelligence, was limited in its legal ability to investigate possible connections to Mr. Trump. The officials said Mr. Brennan told Mr. Reid that the F.B.I., in charge of domestic intelligence, would have to lead the way.

    one conundrum of being the FBI and being DJT: the mere fact of an FBI investigation of DJT would be politically damning.

    why did the DEEP STATE CABAL against DJT stay mum about the Russia investigation during the campaign?

    so it could slam DJT's reputation after he won the election?

    Lol, stayed mum

    Be specific.

    The DEEP STATE CABAL was quite a bit less mum about the Weiner laptop prior to the election, one would think, were one not a hopelessly partisan useful idiot like Darrin.

    Not saying that I condone Comey using Gmail but that at least that has the full force of Google protecting it (from foreign bad guys) while hers sat in a closet?
