Even Democrat Dennis Kucinich Thinks Trump is Being Treated Unfairly

[Dashinka 23,242]

I guess you would call Dennis Kucinich more of a libertarian now days as most liberals from his era were not in favor of big government.  However, even he sees it.

 

Former Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich defended President Trump on Wednesday during an episode of Hannity on Fox News.

The far-left Ohioan defended the president from “politicized” federal agencies trying to “take down” his administration through leaks. Kucinich’s appearance came right after news broke that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein had appointed a special counsel to investigation any potential interference in the 2016 election by the Russian government.

“You have a politicization of the agencies that is resulting in leaks from anonymous, unknown people and the intention is to take down a president,” Kucinich said.

So he admits there are leaks and they are coming from government agencies. That ought to dispel the myth that these sources are being made up by the media. The smoke is real.

I notice Glenn Greenwald has, like Kucinich, been fed up with liberal stupidity over Trump, or general liberal stupidity over the last handful of years. I don't think it's like becoming libertarian, it's much more akin to my situation where a person with liberal ties (and significant liberal views) doesn't want to associate with the stupidity of these liberals. The Obama presidency in particular made them believe that no laws were important and that one can always cut corners to get what they want without respect to laws and customs. And when that fails, cry like a ***** and hope someone gives you your way.

The leaks are only fact in so far as use of them defends Trump. The facts leaked are fake news to the extent that they don't make The Donald look good. 

 

It's a complicated balance.

I saw a whole list of democrats who think this investigation is nonsense. I can't remember the names off hand but I will have to dig it up later when I have time. There are some democrats out there who are actually reasonable and see this witch hunt for what it is. Either that or they don't want to look like fools when this whole thing comes to an end and nothing is found.

Ah! It follows the same logic (cringing) as with news articles. If they are not favorable to the supreme leader they must come from fake new, otherwise they are legit and good, and can be used as evidence that Hillary did something wrong, yet to be determined.

The people on this bandwagon of Trump hysteria and indefinite investigations are one or more of these:

 

1) Highly susceptible to media campaigns.

2) Party fanatics.

3) Trump opposition who can't get over his November election victory.

This reminds me of the clip from the Stephen Colbert show when he announced to his audience that President Trump had fired Comey.  The initial reaction from the audience was a loud cheer until he had to inform the Leftist masses there that they love Comey now.  This makes me wonder if the DNC is maintaining this whole collusion narrative because they are afraid of the reaction when it comes out there is nothing there.

No one said the anonymous sources couldn't be real, but only the possibility that they could in fact be made up.  Both are certainly plausible given the frenzied state of the biased political media.  Regardless, the people leaking this information or making it up certainly have an agenda, and what he says makes sense.

The DNC/MSM don't need to mea culpa when they get it wrong, they just move on to another story the left can latch onto. The left gladly oblige, they're so incensed about Trump they're literally helping the MSM. Every facet of how they've handled Trump being elected is how I see kids at my daughters elementary school behave when they don't get their way. Should start carding leftists when they go to vote to make sure they're really adults.

I am soooo over Trump winning the November election.

 

When will Dear Leader get over his butt hurt about not winning the popular vote? How is that Congressional investigation going?

 

The Donald has decreed his loss of the popular vote was due to millions of illegal aliens voting. Congress agreed to investigate, nothing about how the investigation is going since. 

 

Sorry but if The Donald gets to float such nonsense (and oh so much more) where is there any room to complain about the Russian investigation?

You may be over it, but appearances seem to indicate many on the Left have not including their allies in the press and all the anonymous sources.  As to the other item, when was the last time there was any story related to the popular vote and President Trump ranting about it?

Let me know the results of it. Or if you might feel compelled to forget about it and bark for a new one.
