Seems aptly answered with the qualifier "My opinion was this..." No doubt, easily missed when splinters are in our eye.

Enjoy palace intrigue? Think of who in the WH dropped a dime on Nunes & his WH pals and why. Remember McMaster wanted Cohen-Watnick out.

(15,696 posts)to make it look like Trump the lying liar isn't lying, that Obama's IC gathered convos incidentally while doing their jobs? So what? Trump the lying liar still hasn't apologized yet.
What part of "Obama tapped my phone! bad or sick guy!" Do these reporters not understand? Every moment of this Nunes (spy v spy in the dead of night) crap moves the blame away from Trump the lying liar. Why don't they ask when Trump the lying liar is going to apologize to President Obama?
Okay. Rant over.
