Trump declares the FBI seizing documents from his lawyers as an "Attack on our country"."

Seems he thinks he owns America now.
Does anyone else remember the good old days when the slimy lawyer hiding behind the technicalities to keep some scumbag out of jail was the "bad guy?"

I find the whole response of the POTUS disturbing and offensive:

[quote]It's a disgrace, it's, frankly, a real disgrace, it's an attack on our country in a true sense. It's an attack on all we stand for. [/quote]

The execution of law and justice is not an attack on America or what we stand for. It is what we stand for.

I find this language particularly disturbing as Mueller has said the POTUS is not a focus of his investigation, and as it has been said that the focus of this raid is Cohen, not Trump.

What makes something an "attack on our country" is not it being our friends, our dawgs. That it's embarrassing or annoying. That it looks bad, is bad press.

An "attack on our country" would be obstructing justice, casting aspersions on the process of justice, undermining those who seek justice.

Whatever "justice" means anymore.
