Since it was ok for Clinton and Obama to do it, and the left has had zero remorse for it.Trump should be able to as well right?
Def no, that was an atrocity to our system politics and abuse of our intelligence agencies. Not to mention that was a GIGANTIC lie that prevented normal order in congress.
Illegal actions should be investigated regardless of time or party affiliation. If he is scrambling to investigate his opponents for something real that they are suspected of doing, I would ask why were they not investigated prior to the political loss, but I would still be in favor of it. Basically I think legal investigations should be independent of party politics, and that no one should be above them.

What you just described is exactly what Obama did.
Man, the world would be so much better if Democrats and Republicans would realize that they are not the enemies of each other, but that they are being played by the people in power. Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer, Barack Obama, Donald Trump....they are all screwing the people over and having the time of their life doing it while people argue the pros and cons of two scoops of ice cream or dijon mustard with a sandwich.
