So Obama-gate is not the latest Trumpian joke. Unfortunately it will probably never be addressed. For one thing the corporate media are a party to the scandal and won't reveal their role in being happily used against Trump and in pushing the Russia-gate fraud for the past four years.

Trump himself is problematic in this regard. The Russia-gaters were too clever for their own good when they insisted that Robert Mueller testify to Congress following the release of his long awaited report. But his testimony was a disaster and put Russia-gate to bed. But Trump resurrected the issue himself when he discussed Joe Biden in a phone call with the Ukrainian president. He also repeated a bizarre theory about DNC servers being in Ukraine. Trump begat Ukraine-gate and got himself impeached thanks to his own stupidity. He can't be trusted to behave any differently this time around. He brought Obama-gate to public attention but if his past behavior is an indicator, he may manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Obama still has media friends who repeat old discredited information and invent new charges. They will cover up their own role and cover for him too. We can expect the dead horse to be beaten all over again. Unfortunately the word Obama-gate will be relegated to the litany of Trump's bizarro statements and to his overall hatefulness.

That doesn't mean that this issue should be forgotten. In fact it is imperative that all the truth come out. Democratic Party spy craft couldn't prevent an election debacle and Trump may win again in spite of their efforts. Obama-gate is real and the fact that Trump brought it to public attention should not dissuade anyone from telling the truth.
