The unmasking of a US citizen who was taped undermining US govt policy with a Russian official, is an utterly normal and routine occurrence. It so happens that after it was known it was Flynn, Trump was advised not to hire him. No one knew who the person was at the time of the request other than it was a US citizen. 'Unmasking' is such a routine request which is then handled by the NSA, that the Trump administration has requested the 'unmasking' of over 100 US citizens in their first three years.
In fact the number is closer to 500 than 100. In fact the Trump administration has requested the 'unmasking' of more than 1000, US citizens. Nah, I'm only kidding it was really over ten thousand.
In fact the number of US citizens that the Trump administration has requested unmasking is more precisely 37,000. Anyone who thinks asking for the unmasking of a US citizen who was caught up undermining US foreign policy with a hostile nation, is somehow unusual, is a chump.
This all came out on 2017 and is only being revived because as they say, this is just red meat to the whacky lunatic fringe. This is all Trump and the GOP know how to do, come up with endless bullsh!t and distraction from the absolute chaos caused by their inept handling of the pandemic.
And the reason they need these idiotic distractions is because other than the lunatic fringe as seen on these very forums, their base cares more about their jobs and health and health cover than they do about some obscure bullshit.
The more the GOP do this the worse it gets for them. 2020 is not 2016 but Trump hasn't worked that out yet.
