Wired answers all of Donald Trump's recent dumb questions

Because of the fact that Trump is profoundly ignorant, and he knows he can be sued for diffamation of he outright makes a false accusation, he has this tendency to make dumb questions in his tweets to suggest he's affirming a lie. That way he can get awaay with it and say he was just asking a question.

Well, Wired decided to answer Trump's dumb questions in an article published today. Here's an example on his tweet asking if James Comey's memos were illegal:

June 11: I believe the James Comey leaks will be far more prevalent than anyone ever thought possible. Totally illegal? Very 'cowardly!'

As a matter of fact, fired FBI Director Comey's "leaks" were perfectly legal. They weren't even leaks. As Stephen M. Kohn, a partner in the whistleblower-rights law firm Kohn, Kohn & Colapinto wrote in The Washington Post, "Was the information classified or secret as a matter of a federal law? Absolutely not. Did he reveal a matter of public interest? Yes. Did Comey have a right to expose these facts anonymously? Yes." Any anonymous, non-classified leak that's a matter of public concern is recognized and protected as free speech by the Supreme Court.

What's downright baffling is the fact that people with lots of money are willing to pay $35,000 dollars a plate for a private fundraiser for Trump's reelection bid for 2020. Something smells pretty rotten with that.
