Who is Bruce Ohr and why does Trump keep tweeting about him?

The Pinocchio Test

As yet, there is little evidence to support Trump’s contention that Ohr helped Steele find dirt on Trump. He appears to be only a messenger. At this point, it’s unclear what Ohr even told his friend at the FBI about Steele’s information and whether any of that reporting ended up influencing the Russia investigation. There is also, as yet, no evidence that senior Justice Department officials were even aware of Ohr’s sideline communications with Steele about the Russian probe.

Trump’s mention of Ohr’s wife appears gratuitous. Her role in the matter, as yet, appears minimal.

All of this may amount to a molehill, not a mountain, but the various connections are certainly intriguing.

and hammer it in that Trump is NOT defending the Constitution, the country against enemies Foreign(Putin) and Domestic(him), or is of sound mind.

ANY Republican still standing with Trump stands AGAINST everything this country was founded on. They will be labeled TRAITORS as well.

The message for Democrats running for office is clear. Vote Republican and KISS YOUR COUNTRY GOODBYE!
