Let's go down this road.
1. If this was so bad, why is it now only getting "declassified"? Why was it not included in any of the Congressional reports? Why now? Is it because Trump is down and he wants to play the hits, like Clinton scandal and spying instead of Covid? Come on Mr. Cynical. Even you have to admit this is fishy timing.
2. Why did the previous DNI's like Coats not declassify it? Were they part of the coverup as well? Why not others? Is it now because the adults are out of the room?
3. If it came from a deliberate intergovernmental process that vetted the intelligence, with coordination from all the agencies like is normally done, I would have taken it seriously. Instead the President tweets it and the DNI just says here you go. It reeks of politics not actual policy and process. Anyone who had any idea how the IC process works would understand that.
I've talked with my friends and colleagues you are former IC and they said this reeks of political BS.
4. Do you seriously buy the Obama spying line? You just buy the right wing talking points? Even you Mr. Cynical? Even the bipartisan Congressional committee and reports are not going down that road. You are just mixing up and conflating what a messy complicated story the whole thing is from the start. To think the FBI spied on Trump directly and his campaign is just a gross exaggeration of the story and process.
5. I never said the military story was 100% true. I just said it falls in line with what Trump has actually said on the record. You do know it is possible to read a story and believe most of it and not discredit the whole thing right? You know who also has not denied the story, fucking Mike Pence. He deflected on it last night. In the end, it does not matter, because we all know Trump is just a massive asshole.
6. I missed your other post, but yeah, you are pretty much a dick and an asshole. I try and be civil on here, but fuck it.
7. I find this whole thread hilarious because it is a right wing fantasy and makes it laugh because it is so far removed from reality.
Well, well who is the cynic now? Or is it skeptic, since it's coming from you?
1-4. If you recall, I told you I always approach every report with skepticism. I rather be a skeptic than a useful idiot. You can look at all my posts in this thread and other threads. I never hopped onto the hyperbolic wagon saying Obama spied on the campaign, Hillary should be in jail, and whatever all shit QO has posted on here. I can however look at all the evidence that has mounted up for the last 4 years and conclude it is pretty fucked up how our government behaved and if they can do it to our POTUS they can easily do it to regular citizens. You definitely bring up valid points, but if you look at all the evidence from the lat 4 years and can't bring yourself to think our Government should not be acting this way, then you might be wearing blue tinted glasses. That's probably why you were silent and downplayed whenever Obama weaponized the Government. I can't blame you though, most people like you think his only controversy is wearing a tan suit. Congrats on having friends in your echo chamber that work in the intelligence community though? Sick DC drop, bro.
5. lol bullshit. You were 100% defending the story, because Goldberg is "credible," while conveniently ignoring the fact many "credible" reporters have lost their credibility the last four years. You sure as hell didn't bring the same skepticism to that report as everything else that has come up with Trump and Russia.
6. I am not sure which other post you're referring to, but I am glad you took my advice and just called me an asshole instead of passive aggressively implying it for 5 straight posts. I guess I struck a nerve, when I said this is the same shit you did for Obama and will do for Biden. This is not even a bold prediction. If you stick around this site, there is 100% chance you will not hold the Biden administration to the same standard.
7. I find this thread hilarious too, but I find it funnier that you fall for QO's bait every single time.
