                                  I guess I am done with politics. It seems to boil down to the last liar wins...... 😞

                                      Because Obama isnt a lying sack of shit fraudster for the last 40 years.
                                      This isnt even the same thing that the Trump campaign and Cambridge did.

                                            Really? There were so many weasel worded things in there when I read it, I just assumed that they've always been "sharing" information they collect.
