Maybe he is using the Gore standard .......37 day delay and demanding his day in court .
Tricks and traps .....hmmm like leaving behind a 2 year phony investigation then followed by a Stalinist show trial impeachment ?
Like the emperor seeding the upper levels of executive branch with people who self proclaimed themselves 'the resistance ' ?
Instead of a smooth 10 week transition ,Trump was kneecapped by over 3 dozen officials who made scores of unmasking requests . Before he even took office they forced the incoming National Security Advisor to resign and face legal jeopardy.
Among the Obots who made unmasking requests were Quid , Susan Rice , James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Samatha Power, former Treasury Secretary Jack Lew and former White House chief of staff Denis McDonough. Are those the "tricks and traps " you speak of ?
They leaked false narratives to the press making the transition period chaotic. It scared quality people from applying and accepting positions in the incoming administration .Trump was forced to accept swamp critters and saboteurs into the highest level of his staff just to fill positions .
The attempted coup attempt exposed the Left as the sorest losers in U.S. history . Evita 'conceded ,but in words and actions never really did . She to this day calls Trump illegitimate .She advised Quid to not concede . Madam Mim tore up his SOTU address during a joint session of Congress.
Tricks you say . Would that include the $15,000 damage that the Bubba Adm did on their way out the door ?
The 9-11 Commission concluded that the 37 day delay while the 2000 election was contested was a key factor in the attack. They said the delayed transition “hampered the new administration in identifying, recruiting, clearing and obtaining Senate confirmation of key appointees” . Now the Dem are citing that concern ignoring the fact the Trump was denied the seating of many of his key appointments throughout his term . He often had to rely on positioning "acting" officers .
The Dems cite the 9-11 Commission report to now warn of the dangers of a delayed transition; especially in access to needed intelligence briefings . They conveniently forget that the Bubba administrator of the GAO at the time, David J. Barram, independently declined to “ascertain” Bush as the winner until the Supreme Court ultimately ruled and Gore conceded.
So spare me the complaining about Trump . The template he is following is the one the Dems constructed . You should only hope he doesn't take it to the limits he was forced to endure .
