The Plot Against the President

Very well done! Gives a lot of background and info on General Flynn I wasn't aware of until watching. Definitely recommend.

Anyone rating this a "1" clearly did not watch it. They obviously based it on pure emotion out of their hatred for the former President. So let's get out of the way that I am an Independent with liberal, conservative, and moderate positions depending upon the subject.

You know like MOST Americans.

Now as I was watching this, Edward Snowden came to mind. This was precisely the type of thing he did not want to happen, sacrificing everything to prevent it. And here we have a President who was clearly the victim of it. If they can do this to the President of the United States absolutely no one is immune. Doesn't matter the political affiliation, race, gender, religion, or ethnicity. That, more than anything else, should be the takeaway here. Once a Monster is created no one can control it. That means sooner or later it will be coming for you too.

Pretending it did not occur, or cheering because it happened to someone you do not like is absolutely insane.

I am not America, but the rating on this really shows the divide in America at this time. This clearly is a right wing documentary, but it doesn't necessary means everything in it is wrong, since left wing media had its fair share of propaganda too. You just have take it with a grain of salt and do your own research. Let's hope the next few months are peaceful and healing because a great nation like America does not need this right now.

Applying the Washington Post slogan, every American should see this documentary to gain perspective and greater understanding of the "Russian collusion" narrative devised and manufactured to undermine and impeach President Donald J Trump.

Truth and justice were never served in that undertaking, and the cost paid by us all rocks the foundations of what makes America the greatest society in History.

Regardless of ones' political views, the truth of who was involved, the money trail, disregard for ethics, and manipulation of disinformation by political leaders and a largely biased news media deserves illumination for our all sakes, lest our Democracy indeed fades away into darkness.

Well-paced and avoiding tedium, this is a well-made documentary and is highly recommended viewing.

I found this documentary by chance because it was not promoted at all upon its release. I get why the major media networks would ignore it. It is very much an indictment if the way that they have behaved in the last 4 years.

It is a very straightforward documentary told from the point of view of congressman Devin Nunes. It chronicles his investigation of the various attempts to link the new Trump administration with collusion with Russia in the 2016 election. It also deals heavily with the framing of General Michael Flynn. The film contends that he was a threat to the intelligence community as the incoming National Security Advisor to the new president. It is pointed out by the very people involved how this man was railroaded and how the FBI obtained FISA warrants through lying and omission. The interviews are very straightforward and informative. It is truly disturbing that the beauracracy can wield the power to ruin someone and undermine a president. But the film takes big issue with the media. How the media was complicit in pushing the narrative of corruption and Russia collusion to hurt President Trump. The way that they took any story that would hurt the President and push it without caring if there was any evidence at all to support the allegations. It is truly disturbing to see a media that is supposed to be a watchdog of the government just push whatever narrative that would hurt a president they hated. I wish the film would have gone deeper and explored the story even more.

I get that most people's opinions on this documentary will depend on their politics but it shouldn't. What seems to have been done here is criminal and shouldn't matter what party you support to see that this whole thing was corrupt and is the kind of thing that shouldn't happen in a free country. Anyone with intelectual honesty should be horrified.

Not be ok with it because you don't like who won in 2016.
