GERMANY IF YOU ARE LISTENING? GET TRUMP TAX RETURNS. My Barr Report Retort

"GERMANY IF YOU ARE LISTENING - I hope you can hack the US Treasury and get a copy of Trump's TAX RETURNS. I know a grateful nation will be happy for your effort". Now just imagine if a Democrat said that on the campaign trail? Imagine if within HOURS Germany actually did do that then later released Trump's TAX RETURNS? No doubt FoxNews with their fair and balanced reporting would have no issue with that???

Now Imagine if the same Democratic candidate then said, "Don't you just LOVE German Intelligence Agencies"?

Attorney General Barr has created a NEW PRECEDENT in American Law. But would Republicans stand by if a Democrat called on a foreign power for help in our elections?

What I also find amazing is that even BARR noted the Russians attacked us the "Red Hat MAGA crowd" doesn't seem to care!

Democrats need to wave the Flag and use the patriotism card. Remember when Michelle Bachmann demanded an inquiry into Congress about so-called "unAmerican" members of Congress? These were the Republicans in the House who waved their little copies of the Constitution. How about standing up for America against Putin. What good is a bigger military budget if Putin is attacking our ELECTIONS?

Poor Birther Donny Trump gets no respect after all the respect he gave his predecessor. Maybe Germany can help get his college and High School records made public. Remember when Republicans smeared Obama about his college records?

I fear we Democrats are not standing up to Trump. Some in our party say we should let the next election decide the issue? No way. That assumes Putin will not intervene again. Even if he doesn't the College of Electors may interfere again.

Time to tell your Republican friends and family to STAND UP FOR AMERICA. PROTECTING OUR ELECTIONS FROM PUTIN IS THE REAL WAY TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Start the hearings. If you're afraid of the "I" word, just call it "oversight." But get every last fucking crook out there on camera, telling their sordid stories. And don't stop there. Get the tax returns; coordinate with NY State and Virginia. Pillory every crooked Cabinet member in hearings and lay out all their crimes. Trump's crimes go WAY beyond the scope of Mueller's investigation.
