ICYMI: Trump Calls for Probe of Obama's Book Deal, Wants Hillary Clinton Subpoenaed (Details)
While discussing the deal he cut with Guatemala regarding Central American migrants applying for asylum in the United States, President Trump called for investigations into Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Here’s why…
From The Hill:
President Trump on Friday lashed out at Democrats over their ongoing investigations into his administration, suggesting there should instead be probes into former President Obama’s book deal and other activities under his predecessor.
Trump said, “They want to investigate, they want to go fishing and I watched Bob Mueller and they have nothing.“
He continued, “It’s a disgrace. We want to find out what happened the last Democrat president. Let’s look into Obama the way they’ve looked into me. From day one they’ve looked into everything we’ve done.“
He added, “They could look into the book deal that President Obama made. Let’s subpoena all of his records. Let’s subpoena all of the records having to do with Hillary Clinton and all of the nonsense that went on with Clinton and her foundation and everything else.“
Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama signed lucrative book deals with Penguin Random House in 2017 after they left office. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) continues to struggle speaking in front of crowds, despite decades in the public arena.
President Trump re-tweeted a clip of her stuttering profusely while talking to reporters.
Then, Hillary Clinton decided to join the party.
The problem, as usual, is that she was wildly offbase.
From Daily Wire:
Speaking to the crowd at a Harris County Democratic Party in Houston, Texas, Clinton lashed out at the president for sharing what she called a “doctored” video of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) having difficulty speaking and slurring words during public appearances.
Clinton called the video “sexist trash.”
Here’s Trump’s tweet:

Here’s Clinton’s tweet:
My take on Trump and his cronies spreading that doctored video of Nancy Pelosi: It’s sexist trash.
It’s also a sign that Trump is running scared.

Why else would anybody ask Hillary Clinton, of all people, to give advice to 2020 Democrat presidential candidates on how to defeat Donald Trump?
Where’s the logic?
TOO FUNNY!

“Go to Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan”
She didn’t say that, so she didn’t give worthy advice. There’s no reason for candidates to listen to her.— CriticOfEverything (@CriticOfEvery1) April 13, 2019

Hillary just can’t win.
If it’s not one scandal for the twice-failed presidential candidate, it’s another.
If it’s not email-related, it’s Benghazi. If it’s not Whitewater, it’s praising the prime minister of New Zealand for banning semi-automatic weapons.
It just never ends.
