What we are seeing is nothing less than a conspiracy to overthrow the constitutionally elected government of the United States by left-wing activists and their political allies.
Their attacks began the day after the last election, and have continued unabated as countless fake "news" stories are invented on a daily basis in an attempt to undermine the government's authority.
If they succeed, we will not see free and fair elections in the remainders of our lifetimes as the self-appointed "intelligentsia" will make sure that the people make the right choices in the future.
Whatcha gonna do when they come for YOU?
Republicans are no better when a democrat wins. They actually came close to treason when republican congress critters plotted with private citizens to obstruct obama at every turn. Republicans are such sanctimonious hypocrites.

Their is a HUGE difference in organizing a loyal defensive team and perpetrating a MASSIVELY disruptive media/Deep State coupe attempt. The leaks and phony stories and unmasking and SPYING on an opposition team before they even get elected is treasonous and unprecendented. And if not pushed back by the wussies, will be the NEW normal for ANY incoming Admin.
You just proved that by ATTEMPTING to make the comparison. In the HOPE that making such a comparison makes it legal and acceptable behavior. This is how the 2 parties are destroying the Republic. By LEGITIMIZING illegal, unethical, and mob like behavior of BOTH parties.
Every President in the last hundred years has had to deal with leaks - and "phony stories" are nothing new either. There's nothing "unprecedented" about what's going on right now other than Trump's staggering level of incompetence in dealing with these leaks and "phony stories".
On the topic of "phony stories" - have you forgotten all of the
Obama is a Kenyan/Muslim/Sleeper agent/Communist/Son of Frank Marshall Davis/and so on... stories of the last 8 years?
The Obama stories were true conspiracies. Short on any details or facts. No journalistic stamp of approval. What we see today is a BARRAGE of daily sliming attributed to unidentified, but "highly placed and trustworthy people" that Trump eats steak with ketchup or Trump called Comey a nutbag in front of the Russians. It's literally now an industry coming from the PINNACLES OF JOURNALISM -- not some blogger in his basement. There is an ENTIRE CABLE network dedicated to 24 hour disinformation and speculation on Trump. I never saw that kind of constant belittling of Obama. Not his ethics, morals, or personal life. Not STRINGS of allegations that went FAR BEYOND policy differences.
But the main thing is -- THESE leaks that I'm concerned about are containing true classified information and gathered from domestic SPYING systems that in the PAST --- only 25 or 50 people were cleared to analyze and distribute. And if that access got usurped for political surveillance, we are deeper shit than just some unloyal gossip that gets leaked.
Those systems can make countries fall, they can warp the markets, they can make folks VERY rich if they are abused. OR you could blackmail virtually EVERY person in DC leadership by leaking info from them..
It's not funny. And it apparently has come very close to political abuse. If the content of 80 or 100 privileged conversations, and texts and emails have be pulled for analysis by an opposition political party. And all the news and scandals LEAD the story with info and data that could ONLY come from those systems. You SHOULD be concerned...
