Trump attacks President Obama in Twitter accusation

Donald Trump attempted to drag former President Barack Obama into his campaign finance problems — reportedly paying off alleged mistresses to keep quiet about affairs — saying his predecessor was accused of similar crimes.

On Twitter, Trump wrote: “Many people currently a part of my opposition, including President Obama & the Dems, have had campaign violations, in some cases for very large sums of money. These are civil cases. They paid a fine & settled. While no big deal, I did not commit a campaign violation!”

2. Wonder what's going on behind scenes for him to bring this back into spotlight

Interesting that despite managing to redirect focus to the wall shutdown, he is drawing attention to possibility of him being charged as criminal co-conspirator over the Michael Cohen and National Enquirer campaign violation matters.

To this day, you put the needs of Russia always over the needs of the USA and lie about them constantly to hide their true destructive nature. That's the big difference between him and everyone else in the past, he's a pure traitor for personal profit and because he's being blackmailed. PUtin holds both the carrot and the stick.

with a heaping bowl of WTF. I had a thought just now;

I wonder if this Camp David escape and leaving pence in the big chair, sort of, could lead to some interesting possibilities. One could be pence preparing for a 25th Amendment action while idiot is out of the way and not breathing down his neck - or needing a minder during the daylight hours.

But that's not all, I think that, at the same time, the SC is about to drop the entire shoe store, or at least the warehouse, as soon as that happens because pence will be indicted in the same hour such that he is prohibited from pardoning cheato. And I think that could take place by this coming Friday, folks.

And I think something really mind-blowingly surprising is gonna happen or be revealed (or both) by Tuesday, maybe Sunday. Could be good, bad or a whole bunch of both, but I suspect that by Tuesday, we will probably be having a whole different conversation.
