Trump Out-Democrats The Democrats

The recent uproar over Trump asking the Russians to give back the 30,000 emails that Hillary deleted is actually quite clever. It is particularly satisfying because it uses a typical Democrat tactic against them - introducing a false premise in order to elicit a response from an adversary which connects them to the false premise or causes the opponent to make a damaging mistake.

The result has been that Trump's comments bring Hillary's email scandal back into the spotlight after they had all but fallen off the radar and at a time when Democrats had hoped to have all the focus on their convention. It also implies that, not only is it possible that her emails were hacked by our adversaries as FBI Director Comey suggested, they most likely were. Additionally, it causes the Democrats to make unforced errors by baiting them into responding which is like doing a gymnastic floor routine in a mine field. The responses from the Democrats have made them look ridiculous. In his response, President Obama referred to the Russians as "our adversaries". Congratulations Mr Obama. It only took you four years to realize something Mitt Romney told us back in 2012. Do the 1980s still "want their foreign policy back"? Moreover, it put the Dems in the following position:
Hillary's extremely careless handling of classified material probably allowed the Russians to steal it;
Hillary destroyed government records which is against federal regulations;
Hillary obstructed an FBI investigation, and
Hillary had her server wiped so completely that FBI computer forensics experts couldn't recover the information - pretty extreme for emails that only contained Chelsea's wedding plans and discussions about yoga.
When Trump suggests (probably jokingly) that if the Russians have the emails, they should give them back (They would, after all, be stolen American property.), the Democrats and the crazies in the main stream media say Trump is the traitor. Are you kidding me?

Wouldn't it be something if the Russians did return the emails? It would kinda be like them honoring a FOIA request - something the Democrats never seem to be able to do. How ironic would that be? So Trump out-Democrats the Democrats. Brilliant!
