Limbaugh: Obama Actually Did What’s Alleged About Trump


When the issue of Hillary Clinton’s external email server and its handling of classified emails arose, the FBI appropriately investigated to determine if any national security laws were broken.

Knowing that she would be the Democrat presidential nominee, there was simply no way the FBI could be allowed to actually take it further. President Obama went out of his way in April 2016 to say that Hillary had no intent to harm national security and that the amount of classified emails involved was exaggerated.

He publicly made it clear that he felt the investigation should go nowhere. Comey and the FBI responded by indicating she would be cleared of any wrongdoing.

Now, using a spurious memo, Democrats are trying to say President Trump obstructed justice by asking Comey to “let it go” in terms of the Flynn investigation. As Limbaugh noted, the comparison with Obama’s defense of Hillary could not be more striking.

There’s no evidence this is what Trump was trying to do. There’s no evidence for anything here. We have allegations. We have a memo that may or may not exist. We have a memo that may exist without any context. We don’t have anybody that can tell you what crime Donald Trump has committed yet to this day.”

On the other hand, it was evident that Mrs. Clinton’s “carelessness” was much more serious than anything alleged about President Trump.

If you think back to April 2016, there was no way they were ever gonna have Hillary Clinton indicted. Obama ran the DOJ, and he was running Loretta Lynch, and Obama was running Comey, and there was no way Hillary was ever gonna be indicted. You know it and I know it. But they used the fact that the FBI had ostensibly done a thorough investigation in order to clear her.”

Comey recommended no further investigation or prosecution of Mrs. Clinton based on the fact she didn’t show any intent to endanger national security. As Limbaugh carefully noted, Comey was making up the law as he went along.

Again, intent is not an element of the criminal statute. It’s been totally made up by Comey. The statute does not require intent in order for it to be violated. Comey just made it up and attached it, and Obama used it before Comey did. On April 10, 2016, Obama said publicly Hillary had not intended to endanger national security.”

Once again, the dreaded double standard has taken hold. With the mainstream media, Democrats are treated one way, Republicans another. Even in similar circumstances, Democrats get the Get Out of Jail Free Card while Republicans get the shaft.
