Republicans prime target in 2018? Believe it or not, its Hillary Clinton

Bereft of ideas, Republicans double down on Trumpism and hope to save their majority with a rerun of 2016

President Trump was forced to spend fewer hours on the Mar-a-Lago golf course this past weekend because of former first lady Barbara Bush's funeral, which he had to pretend to watch on TV. (Protocol says that presidents don't attend first-lady funerals in person, for some reason.) He must have stayed glued to the tube because his Twitter feed was on fire. Trump once again insisted that former FBI Director James Comey had committed a crime, and he even suggested that he could retroactively make any government employee who wrote down something about the president into a criminal by making the document "confidential" months later:




So funny, the Democrats have sued the Republicans for Winning. Now he R’s counter and force them to turn over a treasure trove of material, including Servers and Emails!




James Comey’s Memos are Classified, I did not Declassify them. They belong to our Government! Therefore, he broke the law! Additionally, he totally made up many of the things he said I said, and he is already a proven liar and leaker. Where are Memos on Clinton, Lynch & others?


He also claimed he had never heard of Mr. Magoo and Mr. Peepers, so he couldn't have given those nicknames to Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. Trump shared that Sylvester Stallone had called and convinced him he should pardon the legendary African-American boxer, Jack Johnson, who was unjustly convicted of taking his white girlfriend across state lines a hundred years ago. And he wished the Republicans in Congress "good luck" trying to get Sessions to criminally investigate Comey and Hillary Clinton.

In light of The New York Times story reporting that Trump is known to insult his lawyer Michael Cohen and treat him like a lackey, he tweeted that he admires Cohen and doesn't expect him to "flip," which doesn't seem like something an innocent person would say. He also condemned some "drunk, drugged up loser" for saying that Cohen would turn state's evidence, causing millions of people to wonder to which drunk, drugged-up loser in his orbit Trump was referring.

No one else out there. They’d be better off running against Pelosi. But really who do you make the enemy when you hold all the power, Obama’s considered popular, Bill Clinton is 20 years out of office and Schumer isn’t hated enough nationwide? Hillary is all they have.
