One suspects that mass dementia has infected the country. Remember, three weeks before Trump took office, Obama deployed thousands of troops, tanks, nuclear capable missiles, and an entire air wing, right on the Russian border. It was a deliberately provocative act, with predictable reactions from the Russians. Trump, and his aides, were deliberately drawn into attempting to defuse a dangerous situation. With NSA and CIA operates in place, taping phones for the "leaking", it was a cynical, dangerous, flat out insane, gambit to destabalize the Trump government. It was, also, treason. And, the scheme apparently involves a number of high ranking Democrat Party officials. The press is out running down rabbit trails instead of covering a breathtaking story on Machiavellian politics.
