That’s one of two questions that I have about “spygate”
==========
I’ve gotten great amusement from the evolution of the spying-on-Trump story …
First, the FBI/CIA denied that that they planted a spy on the Trump campaign … “no way, Trump is crazy”.
Then there were a flurry of stories indicating that a spy was indeed engaged … “but don’t release his name”
Then the positioning: “that would be a good thing” … “done to protect Trump” … from what?
Finally, the name of the spy-who-wasn’t was leaked … some professor with a long history working with the FBI & CIA.
But, he wasn’t a “spy”, he was a “tasked informant”.
OK, that parsing should make everybody feel better, right?
Let’s dig a little deeper…
