Doubt it made any difference. I think we know the FBI could scribble "Carter Page is a bad guy" on a cocktail napkin and the FISA court would grant a warrant.
Massive FBI Scandal?

If the political op research turns up what the FBI already knew, that’s corroborating evidence.
In fact, concerning the nature of the evidence, it would have been ridiculous not to turn it over to the FBI.
Just like it would be ridiculous not to inform the FBI if the Russian government were trying to help your campaign with dirt on your opponent.
I will wonder how the Patriot Act ever became law.
And then I will remember that it became law with overwhelming support.

Easy to pass things, when people are sooo consumed with fear.

Libs have been in control since the 1970's? W is the one that expanded FISA with warrentless wiretapping, a provision just reauthorized by the current congress, but go ahead and pretend it's all the evil democrats if that makes you feel better.
And after 17 years to think about it, they reauthorize it.

You think they want to give up that power?
Not if they know they will still be voted back in.

The level of mass delusion of republicans about the fbi is truly incredible.
Objectively, the fbi was investigating both candidates during the campaign.
Yet the fbi only publically discusses one of those investigations. The fbi publically leaking and discussing the investigation of Clinton during the campaign was 100% ok with republicans. And those leaks by the fbi about the Clinton investigation was seen by republicans as a way to hurt Clinton politically. And of course those leaks did hurt Clinton politically.

Now republicans are mass pretending that the fbi didn’t heavily aid trump during the campaign by discussing the Clinton investigation while keeping trumps investigation under wraps.
They are pretending they care about leaks and believe that the same fbi that aided Trump during the campaign are now involved in a mass conspiracy to bring him down.
The ability of republicans to collectively believe mass delusions is their second greatest assest.

One could reasonably say that the FBI cost Hillary the presidency.

Objectively they did not help her. Objectively revealing their investigation of her while concealing the investigation of Trump helped Trump and hurt Clinton.
The fact that republicans now have this mass collective amnesia that none of that occurred or that they now care about leaks during an fbi investigation, or now no one who has a negative political opinion of a president can investigate that president, is again the republicans ability to collectively embrace objectively delusional things is impressive.
No. That would be reckless.

at this point and time it is the democrats who have abused the fisa courts to spy on an opposition presidential candidates
on a grander scale it puts the whole process that allows over 99 percent of all FISA requests to spy on American citizens to be approved.
back to my point you responded to. If the process is corrupt its a matter of time before it focuses on your side of the political spectrum in some way.
