Is tRumps administration just a plate full of ham sandwiches?
I was watching the evening news tonight and seeing tRump flail about on all the leaks that are tormenting his administration. "Illegal, illegal" he froths. He wants an investigation etc. Part of the problem is the nature of security classification in today's political world. These people classify everything as a foil to prevent their being exposed and humiliated by the things they've done. Let alone the crimes they may have committed or the very valid information that needs to be protected.
So if that very same ham sandwich were classified as a secret ham sandwich, then it could not be indicted. It couldn't even be questioned. It would be a ham sandwich above the law unless someone leaked the ham sandwiches secret.
So the ham sandwich known as Flynn has been exposed. I suspect we are going to see a lot of ham sandwiches in the coming weeks and months.
