This week the Trump administration and Republican senators made the decision to declassify and release the names of Obama officials who made requests that might have resulted in Flynn's "unmasking." A senior Trump campaign official said they would continue to question the Obama administration's handling of the Flynn affair as part of their efforts to discredit the Russia investigation. The "unmasking" process is routine across administrations and there is no evidence to suggest any Obama officials acted out of line in requesting it. Pressed by a reporter to explain what "crime exactly" he is accusing Obama of taking part in, Trump demurred. In a statement to CNN, Biden spokesman Andrew Bates scorched Trump over his handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
