Source: The Hill



BY AVERY ANAPOL - 06/23/18 09:26 AM EDT

Former CIA chief John Brennan on Saturday blasted President Trump for again criticizing the Russia probe as a “witch hunt.”

Brennan, a frequent and harsh critic of the president, responded on Twitter to Trump’s previous tweet highlighting a poll that shows declining support for the special counsel investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russia.




Trump has repeatedly attacked the investigation as a “hoax” and “Witch hunt.”

His Saturday morning tweet referred to it as a “scam.”

Has he ever answered a Tweet of his critics? Does he even know how to read?

They too will be finished as a party, and will be charged accordingly with him. I think that will happen before everything is done. Ryan and Mitch , and Nunes will especially regret their corruption , and treason against OUR country, and hopefully get the maximum sentences for their crimes. They should be held to a higher standard when they're found guilty. Not let off and protected, or it'll happen again seeing they got off.

They are terrified of his base.
They know they will be voted out if they do anything to hurt, who to them, is the Teabag Avatar.

They know that this degree of turmoil will implode the entire Republcan party for at least two election cycles. Then all the work they've done to give tax breaks to the 1%, break health care and the safety net and end regulations will be undone.

Their priority is the 1%. They obey the base in order to keep serving that.

Nothing to do with Trump himself whom they have utter contempt for.

He's a megalomaniac, remember

And I don't think he grasps the adage that choices have consequences

Nice try, but are you really, really slow, or just blind to the fact that this group of people you mentioned HAVE NO CONSCIENCE?
Much too polite for what is going on now.
Try again.

description of tRump and its merry band of thieves..eva!!


Your fear of exposure is palpable. Your desperation even more so. When will those of conscience among your Cabinet, inner circle, and Republican leadership realize that your unprincipled and unethical behavior as well as your incompetence are seriously damaging our Nation.
