Yeah, I was reading the parts of Reddit that love Trump the most to see their take on things, and a lot of them think this is going to result in arrests of Clinton and Obama, etc etc. As best I can tell, they think this proves that the warrant was baseless and proves the FBI, DOJ, and possibly the CIA were all colliding with the Clinton campaign, and the next big reveal will be about how corrupt the state department is, and then Trump will clean house and actually "drain the swamp."

I wish someone would break it to them that they're in for a disappointment here.

I think people have tried, but they get blocked and/or deleted. They just won't listen.

As for good takes on the memo, the NPR Politics Podcast, which I find tries to be fair in their approach to things, did a little 20-minute segment on the memo yesterday. Nothing totally new from their review of it, but I did find it interesting that they tried to find the transcript of the interview McCabe gave that was mentioned in the memo. However, it was done behind closed doors, so there's no way to verify the veracity of what the memo says he said.

Here's a link to that, for anyone that might be interested:

The lack of critical thinking skills as well as inability to research how the justice system works makes me sad, honestly. It was refreshing to see quite a few "Uh, guys, I love Trump but this doesn't say anything" posts before they got deleted.

I remember during the primaries, Trumptards went after the DC Madame to find out if Ted Cruz had sex with prostitutes.

Trumptards are the easiest people to scam. they hop from one conspiracy to the next without solving any of them.

The fact that he uses "their" and "there" interchangeably IN THE SAME SENTENCE for "there" was enough to trigger me.

Only "Trump" would put his own name in scare quotes.

No, Congress should take away his job.

This has been obvious for over a year. He needs to be impeached, the sooner the better, or we will all end up wishing he had been. This is never going to get better until he is out of office.

No thanks. However, I think you and your cult would be more comfortable in Russia.

More humiliating for the people who came up with the phrase "Yo Memo Jokes" tbh

Issuing this memo showed more about the vapidity of the GOP than about any faults of the FBI.

The “memo” contains no proof of anything really. It’s a piece of paper written by Republicans in an attempt to further dismantle our government.  They’re trying to undermine those investigating them and their leader and they’re trying to further consolidate their power and hold over the country.

And they wouldn’t be doing this if they weren’t afraid of something.

This is not normal. And I’m tired of being told to ignore it, or it’s just how he is, or the American people knew what they were getting into. Roll Eyes He really needs to be impeached and this has nothing to do with his party. I would say the same thing if he were a Democrat. The Republicans act as if Hillary Clinton will get his seat if they throw him under the bus. Jesus.
