2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumNot looking too far ahead but investigations will be needed!
of the FBI, Chris Christie (if he's not already in handcuffs), everything Donald fucking Trump has ever touched, etc etc. No more "looking to the future" - "putting that behind us" - that has us where we are today, prosecute these lying dirtbags to the fullest extent of the law and make examples out of them! It is the only way they have any hope of learning their actions have consequences!

First time I've used all caps.

Completely blew up in their face and they haven't yet
begun to reap the consequences. I get the clear impression
that Republicans just aren't very bright.

(8,976 posts)Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld were young ratfuckers in the White House
when Watergate brought Nixon down. If everyone involved was prosecuted Bush2 might still have been elected, but much of his cabinet would have been empty...

(588 posts)I think you are right on point and it would be fantastic to see Obama get a little payback for the years of bull___t he's had to deal with.

(34,661 posts)This is and will be the most damaging thing to his the Rethugs and even more so than what Nixon tried to get away with. Bugging a opposition Parties Headquarters will make cellmates out of many.

(14,178 posts)Only under Republican "leadership", as we see when they retain majorities in the Senate and House, would we get investigations that would reflect badly on their opposition. In fact it would be, and is, relentless.
Democrats are about "looking forward"....and appointing Republicans to positions of authority to prove how nice they are. One of these times its going to work.....
I fully expect Hillary, after she wins, will announce her full support of Comey, and all those rogue Trumpster FBI operatives that spearheaded this illegal interference, will never be exposed and will instead work diligently to protect America to find new material they could use to help Republicans initiate impeachment hearings.
I really hope they prove me wrong but based on history, I don't have a much confidence.
