McConnell promised to play politics rather than prioritize the integrity of the election, but the Senate majority leader can’t threaten the president into silence. POTUS can issue orders to intel agencies and publicize whatever he wants. These aren’t mutually exclusive.https://twitter.com/fawfulfan/status/964604445022654465 …

Sometimes I don't want to agree, but you compel me to get out of my bubble. Obama made a political calculation however you look at it. He was wrong; Trump won. If alerting US voters was the right course with McConnel's help, then it was also the way to go without his backing.

Yeah. My point is either Obama should or should not have informed the public. McConnell could've been helpful or unhelpful (he was the latter). But the Senate majority leader does not control the president.
