SORRY BUT THIS IS WHERE I CAME IN

I started to watch Morning Joe, this morning, but all the talk, for some reason, was about Susan Rice and her unmasking of names of Americans inadvertently caught in intelligence reports.  It is not unusual for a Security Adviser to do this, but the claim is that she did it for political purposes.  If that is so, she was remarkably unsuccessful.

Republicans hate her for telling the truth about Benghazi (that it started because of a negative movie trailer about Mohammad).  Later it turned into a terrorist attack.  No matter that there have not been anti-Mohammad books, Koran burnings, or movies since and there have been no embassy or consulate attacks.  At any rate, I’ve heard all those lies before that have been kept up for years.  Why don't Republicans focus on the two Embassy attacks under Ronald Reagan (Lebanon and Kuwait), both of which were much bigger with more deaths than Benghazi,  to say nothing of the Marine base Beirut bombing from which Reagan cut and ran.  Oh, that's right, Reagan is Sainted.  This is where I came in so I deleted my recording of Morning Joe and haven’t listened to a political TV program since.  I deleted my recording of Andrea Mitchell  without looking at any of it.

Whatever happened to the Russian involvement in our presidential election?

Apparently the House Intelligence Committee wants to  interview Susan.  Well, I guess I can't blame Kevin Nunes because he foresees his role as defending the President, and he seems to be doing a good job of it.  He has even got some Democrats sidelined on the Susan Rice business.

You know that the Trump group may just have noticed the Russian misinformation campaign and thought it would make good political fodder so they used it.  No one claims that what you say in an election campaign needs to be true so that would be no crime.  I've heard that things said in political campaigns may not be even admissible in court. If so, why doesn't the Trump administration just say so and get it over with?  I guess because it does go far beyond that.  The latest involves Betsy DeVos's brother Erik Prince.   Why do all Trump roads lead to Russia?

Has anyone noticed that Trump doesn't seem to like democracy?  He won't say a bad word about Putin, he shakes hands with the dictator of Egypt but not the leader of the Western World Angela Merkle, and, in the past, he has even said what he thinks are some kind words about the dictator of North Korea (strong leader).

Well at least one good thing has come out of all this from our standpoint in that Trump hasn't dared to get rid of the sanctions against Russia.

Wake me if there is anything new on the Russian interference in our recent Presidential election.
