Hillary Clinton’s Greatest Masterpiece; Left Obsesses Over Trump

 Victor Davis Hanson

Will the people ever learn how false information was seeded throughout the government and media in a conspiratorial effort to destroy a sitting president?

"Hillary Clinton’s never-ending shenanigans in 2015-2016 could be summarized as an attempted slow-motion coup. 

"Four years of national hysteria, a divided nation, and dangerous new tensions with Russia were some of the wages of Clinton’s machinations.

"Clinton hired a British national and ex-spy, Christopher Steele, to compile dirt on her election opponent, Trump. She hid her likely illegal campaign payments to him through at least three paywalls—the Democratic National Committee, the Perkins Coie law firm, and the opposition research firm Fusion GPS. 

"Partisans in the FBI helped her, by variously spying on minor officials affiliated with the Trump campaign, like George Papadopoulos and Carter Page. To expedite its improper surveillance, a corrupt FBI hierarchy presented fraudulent documents to a FISA court that authorized the illicit surveillance.

"Clinton’s orbit of former subordinates and friends seeded the lies in the dossier throughout the Department of Justice, the FBI, and the CIA. 

"During the Trump transition, the FBI also tapped into the communications of national security advisor designate General Michael Flynn. The illegally leaked surveillance put an end to his service to the Trump Administration and ruined his life. 

"The country went through 22 months and $40 million in legal expenses under special counsel Robert Mueller to investigate the Clinton-inspired Russian collusion hoax.

"When it was all over, Mueller’s “dream team” found no such actionable Trump-Russian collusion. 

"Mueller himself ended up nearly humiliated, preposterously claiming under oath no knowledge about the Steele dossier or Fusion GPS—the twin pillars of deceit that prompted his own investigation.

"But Clinton was undaunted. 

"According to a recent affidavit filed by Special Counsel John Durham, Clinton furthermore had previously hired members of the Perkins Coie law firm to contract with tech experts to leverage their own existing access to the White House and Trump servers—and tap into the top-secret communications data of candidate and then President Trump.". . . 

Don Surber: Media obsession with Trump kills Democrats   . . ."The media's obsession with Trump a year after he left reflects the DNC's obsession with President Trump. I have never seen a party talk about its predecessor like this. A successful party makes their new president the topic. JFK shook Ike's had at the inauguration and moved on. Nixon didn't talk about LBJ after taking office, and neither did the press. Carter moved on from Ford. Reagan moved on from Carter. Clinton moved on from Bush. And so on.

"The only reason Trump mentioned Obama was to point out he spied on him.

Of all the stories about President Trump, that is the one the press overlooks,
