In a very unexpected set of tweets late Thursday evening, President Donald Trump called for congressional Democrats and Republicans to abandon their “costly & time consuming investigations” against one another and essentially unite “for the good of the American people.”
Look:
OK, so after two years of hard work and each party trying their best to make the other party look as bad as possible, it’s time to get back to business. The Mueller Report strongly stated that there was No Collusion with Russia (of course) and, in fact, they were rebuffed…..

…at every turn in attempts to gain access. But now Republicans and Democrats must come together for the good of the American people. No more costly & time consuming investigations. Lets do Immigration (Border), Infrastructure, much lower drug prices & much more – and do it now!

The tweets provoked concern from conservatives who felt as if the president was backtracking on his vow to investigate the origins of the Department of Justice’s collusion investigation.
“After all this B.S. the best you can muster is a John McCain imitation?” one angry conservative tweeted, referencing the late Sen. John McCain’s habit of invariably making nice with congressional Democrats even after they’d smeared him or his Republican peers in Congress.
“America wants you to #FightBack. All you want to do is betray them again? I don’t want you to ‘come together’ with Democrats unless you’re visiting them in jail. #Trump #Trump2020.”
Look at and this and other exasperated replies below:
Wow! After all this B.S. the best you can muster is a John McCain imitation? America wants you to #FightBack. All you want to do is betray them again? I don’t want you to “come together” with Democrats unless you’re visiting them in jail. #Trump #Trump2020

@POTUS the reasons I left the @DNC were that you are and outsider ,a businessman and your promise to #DrainTheSwamp . No President should ever have to go deal with what you and your family went through. Fight back and indict those who started the treasonous #WitchHunt

The dems are too far into their lies and their hate for you is overwhelming. Their emotions are more important then your rights. It’s time to fight back! Open discovery into all campaigns especially Hillary’s! What is good for the goose is good for the gander #crossfireboomarang

Democrats will not stop at anything but regaining control. Not attacking them will not stop their attacks. If Republicans don’t fight back, they will kick and spit on you while down. Unfortunately, Republicans have to play their game and be ready for blunt accusations.

They had a point. Congressional Democrats and their media allies spent two years smearing the president as a “Russian puppet,” “Russian actor,” “traitor,” etc., over since-debunked allegations that he’d colluded with Russian operatives to affect the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
And even though these allegations have been formally debunked by special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, Democrats continue to pummel Trump with false allegations, be it with additional allegations of collusion/conspiracy or newfound allegations of obstruction of justice.
It’s a never-ending witch hunt, which is why the president’s tweets seem so extraordinary. What’s not clear is whether, when he spoke of “costly & time-consuming investigations,” he’d just been speaking about congressional Democrats’ ongoing collusion/obstruction investigations, or if he’d also been referencing Attorney General Bill Barr’s investigation into the origins of the Russia probe.
However, tweets he posted Friday morning suggest he’d only been referencing the Democrats’ investigations. First, he retweeted the following from Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo:
“I will declassify soon” – @POTUS @realDonaldTrump @FoxNews @FoxBusiness
— Maria Bartiromo (@MariaBartiromo) May 3, 2019
Then he published his own tweet reiterating his contention that the Obama administration’s potentially illicit use of spying to surveil his campaign is a scandal “bigger than WATERGATE.”
Look:
Finally, Mainstream Media is getting involved – too “hot” to avoid. Pulitzer Prize anyone? The New York Times, on front page (finally), “Details effort to spy on Trump Campaign.” @foxandfriends This is bigger than WATERGATE, but the reverse!

As for liberals, they responded to the president’s tweets by, one, accusing him of trying to imitate former Vice President Joe Biden, who too called for unity when he announced his candidacy for 2020 last week, and two, making it clear they aren’t interested in unity.
Observe:
+ Biden theme has been reuniting the country.

No way ! There are more important things to be done first, restore integrity to the White House, Removing you from office is priority one. Removing Barr is number two, Lindsay Graham number three. That’s what it will take to restore America to greatness!

Apparently, liberals want more political warfare. Luckily for them, conservatives are ready and willing to give them all the political warfare they could ever want in life.
