Trump insistent about voter fraud; says people say 'I am right'
Fox News ^ | Feb. 5, 2017 | Fox News

President Trump is sticking with his argument that millions of illegal immigrants voted in the 2016 presidential election, amid calls for him to provide proof and questions about whether he’ll indeed have an official probe into the issue.

“Many people have come out and said I am right,” Trump said in an interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly to be aired Sunday before the NFL Super Bowl.

Trump also said in the Fox interview that he has "respect" for Russian President Vladimir Putin, but that respect does not mean they'll get along.

"I say it’s better to get along with Russia than not,” he said. “And if Russia helps us in the fight against ISIS, which is a major fight, and Islamic terrorism all over the world -- that’s a good thing. … Will I get along with him? I have no idea."

Pressed about Putin's history of violence, Trump said: "There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country’s so innocent?

Concern trolling? How quaint.

The presstitutes are trying to goad Trump into saying nasty things about Putin in order to scuttle any chance of a US-Russian alliance against Islamic terrorism.

If Trump can somehow get Russia and Europe and the USA all on the same page working against the Left/Islamic agenda, then the open borders globalist project will be dealt a major setback.

In that case, the GOPe Establishment will be as hard hit as the Left, and which is why both the Left and the Neocons are trying their best to kill any possibility that Trump will be able to make a successful rapprochement with the Russians.

Mods should pull this thread because of the vanity title on a news posting.

“is there some reasonable interpretation other than the one I posited?”

Your interpretation is tendentious, not reasonable.

Trump said, “Nobody’s perfect. Stop being such a bunch of girls while I’m trying to back us away from WWIII.”

Because Trump didn’t limit it do “during the years of Putin” He just said:

“Pressed about Putin’s history of violence, Trump said: “There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country’s so innocent?”

Even if you wanted to — although you can’t — attempt to limit it to Putin Russia, Trump DIDN’T limit the scope of criticism of HIS OWN COUNTRY THE UNITED STATES.

Sorry, but I have yet to hear any reasoned argument to dispel the notion that Trump was equating killings in Russia to killings in the United States. Not one single reply has done so.

However, to suggest there is some sort of moral equivalence between our killings and those of a regime that under Stalin

We've done some shady stuff. I don't think Trump's equating it to Soviet genocide, but, let's be honest, Putin hasn't done any such thing either.

As far as your ridiculous assertion about not voting for Trump in 2020, over three years from now....nonsense. Just stop.

Yep. If I would have posted some cockn’bull title, it would have been gone 1 second after hitting the post button.

It is conservatives like you that let a once great state like CA be taken over by liberals.

Except... that’s not what Trump actually said, was it

Here’s what he said

Pressed about Putin’s history of violence, Trump said: “There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country’s so innocent?”

Oh and yes — the rest of the interview is fine (as expressed in the excerpts) - his actions are great. Got no complaints about that -

And yes, for sure, let’s partner with Russia to get rid of ISIS - that’s a fantastic idea (not being sarcastic, for those of you in Rio Linda or West Palm Beach, I really mean that)

what I’d sure like someone to set me straight about whether there is some way to interpret this other than the obvious moral equivalence

So far, the replies are Oh-for-all posts.

Let me see if I understand your complaint. You think that the president thinks the US has a history of violence. Based on this belief, you’ve withdrawn your support of him, and plan to skip the next election. Does that sum it up?

If Trump said it and maintains it he will win the argument. Whether or not that means he proves it is a question. He doesn’t make a “stupid” statement without knowing beforehand tjat the stupid is going to adhere to the opposition if they react to it as they are constitutionally disposed to react. They can’t help themselves. Their code includes too few if->thens. It is a limited algorithm.

I voted for Trump. I wasn't really sure what to expect. I have been blown away. I can't wait to vote for him again in 2020! Worrying about the words Trump says is an idiotic waste of time. Take a look at his actions!

Trump has FAR exceeded my expectations in the first 2 weeks.

No to sum up, you are the latest in a string of replies that has failed to address my observation: When President Trump says the following in the context that Putin (former KGM mastermind during the SOVIET UNION days) has a history of violence: “There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country’s so innocent?”

So if you can address my observations...
