No matter what Donald says this still doesn't excuse the fact he was in contact with Russia while they were hacking our election. If Susan Rice did or did not find out the names doesn't matter. This is just another plot to take peoples minds off the fact that he was in cahoots with Russia. I'm tired of his games.

Slate Reader:
So Trump's agitprop is again successful. He took a story about an apparent legal and proper action by the government in it's investigation of Donald Trump for possible treason and turned it into a story about his oppression at the hands of Obama. He and Bannon know that the media thrives on the conflict, not the story, so this will have plenty of legs for a few news cycles—even if the actual story is 180 degrees to the narrative offered.

The silver lining here is that people seem to be getting tired of Trump's attempts to serve sh*t sandwiches to them as hamburgers, and the only people left behind him are the approximately bottom 35 percent of Americans who are too stupid or racist to know better. […]

Slate Reader:
Republicans are smearing Susan Rice because they hate blacks and especially powerful black women. They're all *Klannish,* they just don't go to meetings and wear sheets. […]

On a related note (for anyone who may really want to get into the weeds of this topic)…..

"Trump’s Russia Distractions Are Getting Desperate"

Susan Rice’s alleged “unmasking” wasn’t illegal, or even unusual.

President Trump and his aides have been doing all they can to divert attention from the mounds of evidence linking him or his campaign aides to Russian intelligence, but the latest distraction—the Susan Rice “unmasking”—ranks among the most desperate. Yet because the issues it raises are so obscure and confusing, it might also prove among the most effective. So let us wade into the muck.

Here are the facts, as we now know them. […] Fred Kaplan, Slate writer

Politico Reader:
Just another epiphany for,the deplorables. Trump's administration is in the sh*tter. People are {possibly} going to jail. Trump tried to lay off heat with the Obama wiretap fiasco. He got laughed off the planet. So now, they are going against Rice who is hated by the right. As far as distracting the moron base, she is a good target. In the long run it won't work but screw the long run. Trump plays checkers, while everyone else is playing chess. […]

I've never been a fan of Susan Rice. Frankly I don't think she served Pres. Obama well at all. But for some reason he continued to have confidence in her and kept her on as his National Security Adviser.

That said.

This attack on Rice is a sorry-azz attempt to distract/ and deflect media attention AWAY from the real issue of possible Treason committed by Trump and/or members of his campaign. And indeed it will probably work on the Repub base because Trump supporters have absolutely NO interest in Truth and Facts.

As Politico Reader put it – Trump is playing the short game, "checkers." It's all he's got.

Whether or not it'll work on our greater American populous? We shall see.
