Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

        Read your piece. My feeling was one of confusion after I watched the show. Really bad editing. Everybody is yelling, "Eureka!" and I'm like, WTF.

        It always helps when someone says they saw the same thing. That way I don't feel goofy like I missed something. Lot's of hype, and they continue with it. Pretty clear prior to this media constructed Gestaltic "revelation."

        Why did trump make a big deal of it last night in his speech though? It made me think there's something to it.

        Because he's in so deep he has to knee jerk find a way to spin everything?

        Yeah I guess that's plausible.

        The interesting thing about Trump's remarks about the lawyer, please don't make me type her name, is that she takes direction from Putin according to Trump.

        Right; I'm just wondering if he inadvertently revealed his own knowledge of something .... he does have terrible judgment about that sort of thing!

        He didn’t have to mention it. So if Trump’s remarks were a ‘spin’, then, hell yes, let’s hope he continues. And what truly was a ‘hack’ job was the editing, totally agree. Upshot: DJT foams from the mouth. Great result even if it wasn’t passable journalism.

        Appreciate the context. Too bad MSNBC messed this up.
