Son of Collusion; it's Bigger, it's Better, it's in Sensaround!
Timothy Birdnow
So now we're back to the "Russian Collusion" narrative to explain why Trump wins the next election. Like a bad Dracula movie, the Russia hoax rises from the grave to menace pretty young girls and to damage the eyeballs of moviegoers as they roll them violently at the cheesy plot.
But not even the media is on board this time.
For instance, CNN is backtracking on the claim.
This story goes back to claims made by the Washington Post and the New York Times, both bitter enemies of President Trump.
WaPo claimed the President sacked Joseph MaGuire as DNI for letting his deputy give a secret briefing to Adam Schiff . The reality was MaGuire briefed the entire Intel Committee, including Republicans. The WaPo story did not say what the briefing was about.
But the NY Times did, claiming it was about more "collusion" between Russia and Donald Trump. Those rascally Russians are at it again, the Times claims, trying to get Trump re-elected. Naturally, Trump wants to keep his dirty dealings quiet.
Now, the Russians have gained absolutely nothing from their alleged support of Trump. He has been tough on them, and there have been sanctions imposed for the last "meddling". Trump has promoted hydraulic fracturing, seriously injuring the Russian oil and gas industry. He wiped out ISIS. He is rebuilding the U.S. military. None of these are things the Russians can be the least bit happy about.
A Democrat would be far better from their viewpoint, especially a good socialist like Bernie Sanders, the man who honeymooned in the Soviet Union and who wants to lead America down the path of European-style democratic socialism. That would be wonderful from their perspective; we would go into economic and military decline. The Russians aren't stupid; they know it destroyed THEM.
Enter Jake Tapper. Tapper's sources pointed out that national security apparatus may have evidence the Russians are going to tamper with the upcoming election, but not necessarily in favor of Trump.
So why did Trump fire Maguire? He had to learn about all this from House Republicans; his own acting Director of National Intelligence didn't bother to brief him first.
The article concludes that Trump is in a pickle because the woman who actually briefed the House Intel Committee appeared to exaggerate, meaning she is probably part of the cabal out to get the President BUT if Trump fires her it will be used as evidence of "obstruction" and tampering with a whistleblower.
I disagree with Allahpundit's conclusion that the Russians may prefer Trump to Bloomberg or Buttigiege; his reasoning is that they may try to punish the Russians, and they would be more hawkish. Really? Any Democrat is going to have to appease the internationalists and the anti-war wing of their party. As for punishing the Russians, we've already done that. Right now the Russians know Trump won't take things lying down. Booteycall probably would, and Bloomberg has the spine of a Portuguese Man-O-War.
No, the Russians want Bernie or Giggabutt or Cherokee Lizzy Warren.
THEY will try to stop fracking, will kill what is left of our coal industry, will impose new taxes on energy and manufacturing. They may spread American troops around, but will never dream of actually using them. They will renew the Iran deal allowing the Iranians to get atomic weapons and do business all over the world -- and spread terrorism. They will let the Russians control the Arctic.
The only downside the Russians would have would be the Democrats would increase support for the Ukrainian government. Other than that, they have everything to lose by supporting Trump.
At any rate, reinvigorating the moth-eaten "Russian collusion" narrative shows how desperate they have become. They forget Saul Alinsky "a tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag". This is really getting to be a drag.

It's getting to the point where none of the clowns want to face up to the facts that (A) Trump won in 2016 because a majority (by the Electoral College) of voting Americans wanted him to win, and (B) there's a distinct possibility that the same thing will happen again in 2020. The Left isn't doing itself much of a favor by the "quality" of the candidates it's putting forth, and Bloomberg is merely muddying the waters, as can be seen by the various articles by otherwise sane political pundits.
I must say it greatly saddened me to see Clint Eastwood endorse Mike the Tyke (as Ammo Grrrll called him) -- Clint should have opposed him loudly on Second Amendment grounds if for no other reason. And indeed he needs to be opposed by everyone on those grounds -- if for no other reason!
Russia? Oh, yes, they're that huge, cold country at the top of Europe and Asia, that contributes nothing of value to anybody else, except perhaps caviar. If we'd all ignore them long enough, I think they'd go away.

Clint endorsed Bloomkopf? Say it ain't so! I hadn't heard that.
Do you feel lucky Clint? Well tell me, do you?
Yeah if Russia didn't have oil and gas she'd be solidly Third World.
