[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8915125, member: 683408"] You should try some due diligence, instead of just parroting Trump's false complaints.

And if they WERE doing it illegally, an explanation of why the right wouldn't have spoken up about it, and taken action. Failure to do so infers that they are OK with illegal stuff being done, as a means to an end. Or becasue he is doing things illegally. The right may not give a shit about the POTUS following the law, but it seems the left does. What rock were you under when you were fed this line of crap: [I]"I wonder if these things you claim are "illegal" would still be if the Judges were not Obama/Biden appointed judges??" [/I]? [/QUOTE]
