World leader meddles in another country's election: where was the outrage?

And you're a certified loon lol.

Why should I have to bump this thread? Isn't it an outrage for a world leader to meddle in another country's domestic politics?

I bet you supported the republicans inviting Bibi to speak to Congress without first consulting Obama.

"Boehner’s decision to invite a foreign head of government to address Congress without first consulting the sitting president has no precedent in American history. And for a simple reason. It’s unconstitutional.

This is unheard of in U.S. history. American Congresses have sometimes rejected a president’s foreign policy, of course. That is within their rights...

There is one key job, however, that the founding fathers assigned to the president alone. The Constitution says that the president “shall receive ambassadors and other public ministers” from foreign governments.

Unconstitutional ?.....interesting claim....wanna cite where in that statement does it say ONLY....You think Obama or any POTUS is equivalent to King or Emperor...

I'll take the word of historians over yours, hack.

"There is one key job, however, that the founding fathers assigned to the president alone. The Constitution says that the president “shall receive ambassadors and other public ministers” from foreign governments.

Why did the founders do that? According to Stanford University professor Jack Rakove, who won the Pulitzer Prize for his book on the subject, they entrusted that responsibility to the president for a specific reason: to facilitate bilateral negotiations on complicated matters on behalf of the United States.

Congress has the authority to declare war. The House and Senate hold the purse strings and represent the will of the entire nation. War is also a public, unilateral decision. It required only a “simple and overt declaration,” James Madison wrote in the notes he took at the Constitutional Convention.

In contrast, the president is charged with making peace — and “peace [was] attended with intricate and secret negotiations.” So the founders placed the president in charge of meeting with foreign ministers on delicate matters requiring discretion."

Bibi was supposed to be speaking to the "special relationship" and friends of Israel -not on an official state visit.
Whether you think that is true or not
 
The outrage was on the right, wasn't it?

Didn't cons call for impeachment and criminal charges?

Now Trump is treasonous.

Trump for prison.
