https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/obama-pushes-back-trumps-outrageous-bizarre-treason-claim-rcna220393'"Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response," Obama spokesperson Patrick Rodenbush said. "But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction."...
I can assure the public that there was not the kind of tampering with the voting process that was of concern the votes that were cast were counted they were counted appropriately, Obama said from the White House, days after receiving the December 2016 brief to which Gabbard referred.'
My words: Trump has gone mad. Impeach him or invoke the 25 Amendment. If the Republicans continue on this path, they will certainly destroy their own party, which, to my mind, may be a very good thing, indeed.

Trump sued the WSJ for two counts of defamation, each seeking at least $10 billion in damages, for a total of $20 billion. What the hell, Obama should make it $40 billion for all the Kenya shit.
