Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsSo Burr and Ryan have come out today saying...
...that there are forces (media) trying to undermine the President.
The victim card is being played heavily over at FOX and hate radio.
These fools are clueless.
This will not end well for them if they truly see it this way.

CYA mood right now.
How did McConnell know if he waited until after the election he would have
somebody else to vote for for SCOTUS?

Paul Ryan & Republican Establishment Used Hacked Info From Russia Against Democrats:
Let's not forget that a super PAC tied to Paul Ryan used material provided by Russia's hacking of the DNC and DCCC.
It was known that Russia had stolen material from the DNC and DCCC and a Paul Ryan Super PAC and as well as other Republican groups used it.
It wasn't just Hillary Clinton being attacked. It wasn't just Trump benefiting. There's potentially more collusion than just that between Trump's team and Russia.

(5,611 posts)They are learning from Kellyanne! Wildly pivot to a scapegoat of some sort (Bernie was cheated! Because, you know, Trump really cared about Bernie. Hillary sold uranium! Because Trump's ties to Russia must be okay. The fake news media spreads lies! Yet the prez said himself that he asked Comey about the investigation, and he said he discussed the info with the Russians...sigh). So is it the fault of the media that Comey took notes, etc when Trump tried to bully him into concluding the Russia investigation -- and asked Comey to assure him that he wouldn't be personally investigated? The media did all of that? The media blathered classified info to the Russians in the Oval Office (and let in Russian press while denying our press entry)?
Total asshats. Paul Ryan wants to shove through his life fantasy of killing all healthcare and every program that helps the poor, the elderly, and hell even ordinary Americans like Medicare and social security so that he can enact his Ayn Rand fantasy world.
