tc, not sure if you find Democrats generally more civil than Republicans. If so, I agree to disagree.
Are you saying that the Rice issue should be ignored?
Don't know what Trump thinks now, but at the time he probably thought Flynn was the guy and Democrats were just after his picks. I think he initially made a mistake with Flynn, mostly because of the Turkey money. See? I can say Republicans aren't perfect. It seems to me that Democratic support is far more hardened than that on the other side. Republicans are hardly falling in line behind Trump, as Democrats did with the previous administration. But that's another discussion.
The actions of Rice explain Nunes. He should have known that his comings and goings would have been the story more than Rice. Don't know why he was unaware of that.
Remember President Obama's dismissal of Romney's warning about Russia? Under Obama and Clinton, Russia received a large portion of our uranium. During the campaign there were many Clinton/Russian connections that the Democrats ignored.
Another excerpt from the article I posted:
It was only after the campaign — after Hillary’s baggage no longer mattered, after the Democrats decided that “Russia hacked the election” was a better storyline than “we ran a lousy candidate and have lost touch with Middle America” — that Obama made a show of vigorous action against the same “cyber espionage” he’d pooh-poohed as par for the course seemingly five minutes before. Suddenly, on his way out the door, the president who’d sat on his hands while Putin sacked Crimea, grabbed slices of Eastern Ukraine, and abetted Syrian war crimes was moved to eject Russian diplomats, shutter Russian installations, and impose sanctions for what his administration labeled “Significant Malicious Cyber-Enabled Activities.”

Was wondering if you are comfortable with how the previous administration handled Russia.
