Trump not letting up on ISIS.

I thought he had defeated ISIS back in his first term?

Apparently it's all Obama's fault....

He did. Did you miss that bit of news? Looks like each time a new potential leader pops up, he smacks them. Does that bother you?

He then proceeded to betray his allies in that fight (the Kurds) and later on almost allowed many of the captured ISIS fighters escape prison by suddenly cutting funding for the guards keeping them locked up.

So did he "defeat" Isis? Or was it just playing Whack-A-Mole with some leaders? There's a difference.

Knocking off their commanders is easy. To defeat them you actually have to go and engage with and destroy them.

They got there quite some time ago... probably around 2017.

As per SOP I’ll wait to read a sworn search warrant affidavit outlining probable causes and a list of what was seized. I’m not gonna sit here and assume it’s impossible that John Bolton crossed some lines.

Taking classified documents home with you was part and parcel to the end of 45's administration. Always lead by example.

Oh you better believe I’ll be watching for that compare and contrast.

Let's not gloss over ole 46's holdings he was not permitted to have throughout his political career, nor the email server scandal from HRC. This isn't limited to 45, rather it seems to be a whole of government problem down there.

Why not go back to Roosevelt, Truman and Kennedy? I'm sure there is something equally irrelevant there too.

Come on. Even you can see this is a presidential witch hunt to silence his critics.

I know you are blind to the rhyming going on to the 1930s, but the differences we see with 47's administration and all previous ones are scale and malignant motive. Even Nixon wasn't this blatantly corrupt.

The shoe is now on the other foot. I don't recall all this angst when the main target was Trump and anyone in his circle...it was "nobody is above the law"... but now "OMG!"

The FBI must have had oversight on their warrant application. Do you not trust the institutions of justice? You did before...
