Heres a point to make regarding legality of wiretapping domestically
If the President didn't break any laws then why are the Republicans putting forth legislation to make what he did legal after the fact?

If its not illegal why do they need to change the laws to make it legal?

just a little zinger I came up with during a debate at work this morning in response to a "not sure if he committed a crime or not" dodge.

2. Dewine talked all of that noble trash at the first hearing
and soon as he was off camera he rushed to pen this bill. Investigation, what investigation, that was then and this is now! I was just funning you! What a punk.
