The left will not be happy, but Cotton correctly argues that if this was all a smear job it is horrible and we can never let that happen again. And the only way to do that is to hold those responsible to account.
Cotton told Hugh Hewitt so many Obama officials and senior officials in the FBI came to believe that an American presidential campaign was colluding with a foreign intelligence service.
Hugh asked Tom Cotton if his premise was that Obama administration officials tried to sabotage Trump and saddle him with an albatross across his neck to damage his presidency.
I dont think based on what weve seen over the last three years you can have any other working premise, Cotton said.
And Cotton is not the only one who wants to go after Obama and his team. From The Hill:
Republicans believe that the FBI and [Department of Justice] the top people took the law in their own hands because they wanted [Hillary] Clinton to win and Trump to lose, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said during an interview with Fox Newss Neil Cavuto as part of a media blitz discussing his plans for an investigation.
He said that he will be looking at abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant application process and the counterintelligence operation into Trumps campaign, adding that there will be a lot of inquiry as to how this all happened.
GOP senators are already naming former officials who would be at the top of their lists to question, including former FBI Director James Comey and former Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
And what do we think the Trump admin will be up-to during the 2020 campaign ?...
