I really have no idea what anyone is really going to do, especially politicians...
but we could always examine some of the fact.
1. This story just broke in CNN... very odd.
A. CNN has SUPPORTED HILLARY (only doing positive stories about her, and they were even CAUGHT "fixing" the debate questions to rig the debates.)
B. CNN should be HAPPY by this announcement... they should be HAPPY that Hillary isn't going to be prosecuted.
C. CNN isn't acting happy... they're acting MAD at TRUMP, and calling him a LIAR, and a promise breaker... for saying he won't prosecute the candidate THEY SUPPORTED.
D. Isn't this odd?
Isn't it odd CNN would be mad at Trump for saying something they are IN FAVOR OF?????
F. Not at all... even though Trump just said something they are in FAVOR of, they are railing against hin, because they just smear everything he says or does... even when he does something they are IN FAVOR OF.
(Truthfully, this is how politics ALWAYS works. You smear the other guy, even when he does something you like. This is just how it's done.)
2. The Media is undoubtedly ESPECIALLY angry with Trump today.
The Media just had a private meeting with the president yesterday, where THEY reported he berated them for being dishonest in ALL their reporting of the elections.
It was a major "dressing down".
And shockingly... today they have some new negative stories about him.
3. Hillary supporters are still rioting in the streets... it might be considered a reasonable act for Trump to say things about Hillary which are kinder and gentler, to calm them down.
- I'm not saying this is good or bad.
- I'm just saying this would be a reasonable, and expected response, from any politician.
4. What did he really say?
- Trump didn't actually say Hillary was immune from prosecution... he said his administration would not target her.
- And actually... he didn't even say that much. His spokesperson, said something generally to that affect, on a talk show this morning.
Since the DOJ and FBI are supposed to work as independent agencies... there is no reason to believe Hillary is immune to investigations. We really have no idea how things will unfold.
Time will tell.
5. Trump is still 2 months out from being sworn in... it's a bit early to guess how everything will unfold.
- In actuality, he is NOT the president yet.
- In actuality, his administraton is NOT in power yet.
- In actuality, there may be many things he intends to do which are not yet prudent to disclose.
- We simply have no idea.
Time will tell.
6. Is it appropriate or inappropriate to say his administration will not target a rival?
- Many law professors have been commenting that the proper LEGAL course is actually for him to back off his prior rhetoric, and let the DOJ deal with Hillary, as needed, in the future.
7. We're very close to multiple new wars - Doing anything to further inflame the current liberal establishment, or their overseas cronies, is probably a bad idea right now.
- In the past weeks, Obama has put american troops on the Russian border in both Poland and Sweeden... moves which created great hostility with Russia.
- After a brief meeting between Putin and Obama a couple days ago, yesterday Putin moved his MISSILES closer to Europe.
- Syria, which recently announced a desire for reconciliation with Trump, has been a target for invasion, according to Hillary (she said this on several occassions.)
We are literally on the brink of several new wars.
Therefore... maybe it's reasonable for the president-elect to say conciliatory, and calming things, to the liberal establishment and their overseas cronies... instead of saying things to further upset and inflame them.
Conclusion:
1. There is no reason for anyone, not even Trump's most ardent supports, to think he's the messiah... he's just a guy.
2. He's still 2 months from being sworn in... we really have no idea how things will pan out.
3. If we want to attempt a prognostication... we should look at the facts, and the circumstance... not just the rhetoric from detractors.
4. I have no idea what the president-elect will actually do...
but he's not the president yet, and both national and international situations are very volatile and complex.
