Yeah Trump's Trump but before we get too bundled up in blues, booze and boos, let's take a quick look at earlier presidential precedents.
Bill Clinton had Janet Reno and her 35 peacocks named Horace. After becoming Clinton's attorney general she fired every US attorney, a move unmatched in American history. She also fired FBI Direrctor William Sessions the day before Vince Foster was found dead.
Ronald Reagan colluded with Iran in order to prolong the captivity of American hostafges until after the election which killed the chances of Jimmy Carter's re-election. The collusion was completed via Iran-Contragate which also involved Veep George W Bush before he became president and engaged in a butchery called Desert Storm and covered up the POW MIA siituation withthe help of John McCain of all people.
Gerald Ford pardoned Nixon and named Rckefeller Veep
Nixon colluded with North Viet Nam to avoid peace talks until the election which killed Humphrey. Nixon fired not one but two attorney generals and left FBI director Patrick Gray holding a bag of shit during his confirmation hearings.
The bag of shit Gray was holding was Watergate.
Kennedy was following a plan set up by Ike and Allen Dulles of the CIA to invade Cuba which became the travesty known as the Bay of Pigs which may or may not have led to the assasination of the President.
Trump?
Who we kidding?
He's the president.
He's following precedent.
And I haven't even started with Dubya yet or should I say Cheney?
And Obama's lack of sanctioning after becoming aware of Russian hacking doesn't smell real good either.
While we're at it, might as well give Slick Willy creit for colluding with Loretta Lynch on the tarmac when he wasn't even in office.
We been here before with all of 'em except maybe Carter.
No wonder his presidency is regarded as an impotent joke.
