The Memo: Team Trump insists Dem probes could 'boomerang'


BY NIALL STANAGE - 03/10/19 06:00 AM EDT

Republicans close to President Trump insist that Democratic congressional probes could come back to haunt the opposition party.

The Trump camp argues that Democrats will play into the president’s hands if they subject him, his associates and his family to an endless barrage of investigations.

Their theory — vigorously contested by critics of the president — is that such moves would bolster Trump’s case that he is being subjected to unfair attacks.

David Bossie, Trump’s deputy campaign manager in 2016 and someone who remains well-connected in his orbit, said that the recent decision by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) to seek documents from 81 people or entities showed “they are going to do exactly what the left wants them to do — attack the president at every turn.”

Bossie also predicted that “if the Democrats overreach, the American people are going to see that. They’re very smart. There will be a boomerang.”

Decency, soul and compassion. Nothing will change their low character, or minds, ever.

Accountability has been a lifetime coming to the Wretches. This won’t be a walk in the park, but the Cretin and his family of thugs will go down.

If the Dems can’t prove wrongdoing, the egg will be on their face, and tRump will be vindicated. Fat chance!

Evidence supporting this would rationally lead to people rejecting them. For his ardent supporters it will have them double down.

I believe he had it prior to being involved with Trump.
