DON’T DO IT MR. PRESIDENT!
While the memo confirmed what most of us who were paying attention already knew, I have to admit I am a bit disappointed with it. There was so much hype about the memo that I probably “jumped in” more than I should have. My expectations were probably unrealistic too.
I was hoping for something like; On June 3rd at 3 pm Obama met with Hillary Clinton and FBI Director Comey to discuss the plan to bring down Donald Trump. Obama was quoted as saying “We cannot let Trump win because he will undo everything I did as President.” And Hillary said “I am entitled to be President, you know that Mr. Comey. So, how do we ensure this happens?” Like I said, my expectations might have been a little too high. Of course, now that I say all this, we don’t know if that didn’t happen do we?
Let’s have some fun. Perhaps the conversation continued.
Comey: What we can do, is leak a fake report saying Trump is colluding with the Russians. Everyone hates the Russians. We will get buy-in from some of the Republicans like McCain and Flake. We will need to come up with some dirt to help the story along.
Hillary: I can have my campaign pay for opposition research. Will that work?
Comey: That would be helpful. I think my guys can use that opposition research to go to the FISA court and get permission to spy on Trump and his campaign. We leak tid-bits now and then to further discredit Trump and sell the Russian story.
Hillary: I’m willing to pay up to 12 million dollars to get the dirt we will need. To keep distance from us, I’ll hire Steel the British spy. While all of this is going on Jim, you can pretend like you’re investigating me over the email bullshit.
Comey: Are you okay with this Mr. President?
Obama: I’m ok with anything that keeps Trump from becoming President. I didn’t work this hard to screw-up America only to have him take office and expose all that I did. I’m sure I can get the DNC to pitch in some money too. Hillary, do you have Bernie taken care of?
Hillary: Don’t worry about Bernie, Debbie has that covered.
Comey: Ok, sounds like we have a plan. Remember, this meeting never happened. This goes without saying but, Hillary, I assume you’ll keep me on as Director, right?
Hillary: Of course Jim.
Interesting, isn’t it? When you look at it this way, it sounds quite possible doesn’t it…
Exposing all of the true events is going to take a long time and require a lot of money. Not to mention, a lot of courage by the Republicans. The Democrats will fight this every step of the way. The country will never be able to move on until someone higher up than some FBI agent goes to jail. Until that happens the idea of equal justice under the law will remain only words on a very important piece of paper.
God be with us!
