You must not be talking to me because I'm neither a fascist nor left. Come back when you understand who you're talking to.
Which is worse: Russian interference or FBI/CIA/IRS interference?

President Trump and his supporters at Fox News have used many words to describe the investigation by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III into the possible collusion between his campaign and Russian operatives to influence the 2016 presidential election.
There’s Trump’s personal favorite: “witch hunt.” Fox News commentators have called the investigation “illegitimate” and “corrupt.” Sean Hannity charged earlier this month that Mueller has put the country “on the brink of becoming a banana republic.”
[‘Witch hunt, fake news, phony’: Trump’s defenses against the Russia probe]
Conservative commentators on Fox have compared the FBI to the KGB, the notorious Soviet-era spy organization that routinely employed torture and summary executions. Fox News legal commentator Greg Jarrett argued on a segment of “Hannity” earlier this month that Mueller “has been using the FBI as a political weapon. And the FBI has become America’s secret police.
“Secret surveillance, wiretapping, intimidation, harassment and threats. It’s like the old KGB that comes for you in the dark of the night banging through your door.”
Hannity assured viewers, “This is not hyperbole you are using here.”
Tom Fitton, president of the conservative organization Judicial Watch, made the same comparison on Fox News on Wednesday, saying, “Forget about shutting down Mr. Mueller. Do we need to shut down the FBI because it was turned into a KGB-type operation by the Obama administration?”
Apparently these strong words weren’t strong enough. Saturday night, Fox suggested that the Mueller probe might be “a coup in America.”

Fox News host Jesse Watters told viewers the investigation into Trump’s campaign “has been crooked from the jump.”
“But the scary part is we may now have proof the investigation was weaponized to destroy his presidency for partisan political purposes and to disenfranchise millions of American voters,” Watters said. “Now, if that’s true, we have a coup on our hands in America.”
As counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway spoke to Watters, a chyron appeared on the screen with the words “a coup in America?”
“The fix was in against Donald Trump from the beginning, and they were pro-Hillary,” she said. “They can’t possibly be seen as objective or transparent or evenhanded or fair.”
Conway and Watters were referring to revelations that counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok was removed from Mueller’s team in July after text messages were discovered in which he discussed his dislike of Trump and support of Hillary Clinton with FBI lawyer Lisa Page. Their text messages were released by the Justice Department last week and are still under review.
A coup? The language did not sit well with some.
“Use of the word ‘coup’ by @FoxNews after Russia has deliberately worked to destabilize US democracy is extremely irresponsible and should be roundly condemned,” tweeted Ron Nehring, a California Republican and former spokesman for Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign.
“The scary is ratcheting up,” tweeted Yascha Mounk, a lecturer on government at Harvard University and a senior fellow at the left-leaning think tank New America.

He thinks that about anyone who doesn't live in his mommy's shack near a vacant lake out in nowhereville, state of nowhere.

I like and own several Johnnyrudes, and I agree that Yamadingers are very good engines as well. That said, neither manufacturer can match my 150 hp inline sixes for shear speed or hole shot on a light hull. (Not even close).
Ya see: Sherlock, my 99.x cubic inch 150 hp (at the crank), Black beauty inline six with power trim weighs only 270 lbs. I have run right past much larger Dingers and Johnnyrudes. Those old inlines, (I have a bunch of 'em), are extremely fast, and run very well.
After all 1.5 hp per cubic inch carbureted isn't to shabby, (if yer brain works at all), that is.
I really get a kick showing snotty snarky rich Liberals how slow their seriously expensive boats are. The shock on their faces when I make 'em look like they hit reverse is priceless.

If you call others dumb, you should at least use correct grammar. Otherwise, you look like the dumb one.
