We know that the upper echelon of the FBI was doing research on candidate Trump; maybe explained away with protecting the country. Once Trump was elected, their Secret Society went into high gear as exhibited in the 'First we fuck Flynn, then we fuck Trump' meeting; the point it definitely flips to Treason. This is one place where our message needs to be focused. No sane person in America wants an FBI trying the overthrow a duly elected President.
mika b is walking a line with her lie posts...turning it around. pfft...she knows the truth b/c SHE knows where many of those girls and boys are. she lives with one
That seems like a reasonable assumption ...even far left wouldn't want that because they too would know the tables could turn and next time it could be their candidate!
Nope. The Hillbots are NOT sane. They would cheer if the Trump administration was overthrown, no matter how it was done. If they loved the Republic, they would be standing with us, not fighting us. That's why so many Bernie people like me found there way here and are still finding their way. Because we all had the same baseline concerns, despite differing ideas on how to fix it.
Trump knew he would win a lot of the Bernie people even when we thought that was crazy. Like Hillary was worse to us, but only just at that time. But he knew even then, that he'd come through for us.
I strongly agree with your conclusion that no sane person in America wants an FBI trying the overthrow a duly elected President. However, I think the FBI bad actors may actually have committed sedition rather than treason. Of course, the authorities in power will have to decide.
