The Democrats and the Media Want War With Russia. Why?
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 07/18/2018 6:33:32 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

When I saw this headline, I assumed it had to be about Peter Strzok. – Man arrested for contacting ex-girlfriend 200 times per day.

Let me guess – because you’re an idiot and an awful mother? – A British fake journalist named Rebecca Schiller wrote a piece for the UK Guardian titled “Why I took my 8 year-old daughter on an anti-Trump protest.” Good grief.

Tired of all this Winning yet? – A few minutes ago, the President tweeted the following:

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump “A lot of Democrats wished they voted for the Tax Cuts because the economy is booming - we could have 4% growth now and the Fed said yesterday that unemployment could drop again.” @foxandfriends @kilmeade

6:03 AM - Jul 18, 2018 30.5K 14.6K people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy

Four percent economic growth. Four percent unemployment. ISIS is about 98 percent dead. The price of gasoline is going down because the President leaned on the Saudis to put more crude oil on the open market. The Crazy Little Fat Guy in North Korea has been neutralized. The U.S. is now back on a path towards a productive relationship with Russia. The Supreme Court will soon have a working majority that will consistently respect the U.S. Constitution for the first time in two generations.

All this and so much more has been achieved in just 20 months, and it is driving the Democrat/fake news media axis of propaganda utterly mad.

Profiles in how not to do public relations, courtesy of MGM Resorts. – The families of the victims of last October’s Las Vegas massacre have a real reason to be outraged, as they were all sued on Monday by the raving morons who run MGM Resorts, which of course owns the Mandalay Bay Casino Resort from which the Vegas gunman killed or wounded more than 500 people. I swear I don’t make this stuff up:

“The company, which owns Mandalay Bay and the Route 91 Harvest festival venue, argues that it cannot be held liable for Oct. 1 deaths, injuries or other damages, adding that any claims against MGM parties “must be dismissed,” according to complaints filed Friday in Nevada and California.”

Mind you, this is the same Mandalay Bay whose miserably incompetent security allowed the shooter to spirit something like 20 huge suitcases filled with guns and ammo up to his room over a period of several days using the freaking freight elevator, for crying out loud. For this company to now claim that it has no liability in this mass shooting is just despicable, and so unbelievably stupid from a PR aspect that I honestly hope they get put out of business for it. A pox on all their houses.

Oh, and here’s another tweet that President Trump just posted that’s worth mentioning:

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump Some people HATE the fact that I got along well with President Putin of Russia. They would rather go to war than see this. It’s called Trump Derangement Syndrome!

6:27 AM - Jul 18, 2018 49.1K 34.8K people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy This tweet is worth mentioning because it’s absolutely true, pointing to a reality that constitutes one of the most frightening aspects of our current political dynamic in Washington. It’s not just that the President’s opponents oppose his outreach to Putin and Russia in a quest for political advantage – it’s far more than that.

For two years now I’ve been periodically writing about the obvious desire among the Democrat Party, most of the major news media and the warmonger faction among the Republicans in congress to actively seek a shooting war with Russia. It is hard to grasp what the motivation behind this desire actually is, but there is no question have been viscerally opposed to any effort by President Trump to establish a more productive working relationship with the world’s only other major nuclear superpower.

This attitude and rhetorical dynamic came into focus when it became obvious that Donald Trump would be the GOP presidential nominee. Given that Trump was the only candidate advocating for better relations with Russia, and that Putin was at the time still interfering in the affairs of the Ukraine, it would have made sense for the Pantsuit Princess and her amen chorus in the fake news media to develop counter talking points to that position.

But that’s not what happened. What happened instead was the creation of an unending and steadily escalating drumbeat of rank hostility towards Russia from the same quarters of the Washington DC establishment that had just a few years before applauded the Coughing Crook for her juvenile “Reset Button” outreach to Putin and Russia.

This hostile clamor against any positive outreach towards Putin and Russia has now grown into claims of “treason” hurled at the President of the United States from noted Obama-era bad actors like John Brennan, James Clapper, Jim Comey and the Fainting Felon herself. The leftwing rag Politico even published a piece on Monday openly advocating for the U.S. to declare war on Russia. Breathtaking.

Hey, wait a minute: Think about what other Russia-related events those people all have in common:

The “hacking” of the DNC servers, which the DNC (then run by the Clinton Campaign) refused to allow the FBI to properly investigate, prompting then-FBI Director James Comey to shrug his shoulders and say, “oh, ok.”; and The Uranium One transaction, in which 20% of U.S. uranium reserves were sold to a Putin front Russian company in exchange for hundreds of millions of dollars flowing into the Clinton Foundation; We now know that the Uranium One transaction was signed off on by much of the senior leadership of the Obama Administration at the time. And of course, we know that the Clinton/Obama amen chorus in our fake news media ignored and even helped to facilitate the transaction with justifying coverage of it over the last 7 years.

Putin knows exactly what happened in both of those cases – is it any wonder, then, that all of these people would be horrified at the thought of President Trump holding a private meeting with Putin for 90 minutes in a neutral country? Can we doubt that these people would gladly go to outright war with Russia in order to avoid real accountability for their actions?

This is the only explanation I can come up with for the years-long, outright advocacy for going to war with a country that has not attacked the United States in any real way – Russia has been meddling in U.S. elections for 50 years, so please don’t bring up their meddling in 2016 – and which possesses a nuclear arsenal comparable to our own.

This is not just “Trump Derangement Syndrome”, though that does play a big part in it. More to the point, this is “Self-Preservation Syndrome” on the part of a pack of really bad people who have betrayed our country on such a grand scale that it is almost unimaginable. If these seem like really desperate people to you, well, that’s likely because they are really desperate people.

Just another day in the truth will ultimately come out America.

That is all.

Trump talking point. They never did until he won. 2020 arrives we can say it will lead to war if a rat’s in the WH.

The left is incapable of rational thought. They envision WWIII as just resulting in Trump losing his popularity. That’s the extent of their ability to reason.

Wouldn’t it be great if Russia Indicted Comey, Hillary, Lynch, Clapper, Brennan, Mueller..... and President Trump TRADED ALL OF THEM for the 12 Russians Mueller indicted.

This hostile clamor against any positive outreach towards Putin and Russia has now grown into claims of “treason” hurled at the President of the United States from noted Obama-era bad actors like John Brennan, James Clapper, Jim Comey and the Fainting Felon herself.

Instead of "clarifying" his remarks, I'd love to see President Trump double-down and remind everyone that Obama and Hillary colluded to sell Uranium to Russia in exchange for a 500 million dollar donation to The Clinton Foundation. A huge chunk of which ended up in an Obama bank account, I'm sure.

Also, I heard Sebastian Gorka tell Sean Hannity last night that CIA Director John Brennan voted for a Communist Party candidate at some point.

I'm fairly certain there is either a Trump insider who lurks on FR or there's a FReeper who has access to President Trump's inner circle.

I hope that person sees your post, and mine, and encourages President Trump to go on the offensive with this information.

I used to sit gun show tables for my uncle. We’d check into a hotel with twenty or so long rifle cases. Rifle cases, not broken down parts in regular bags. Often the hotel clerks helped us take them up, as they were HEAVY. Not once did somebody say something about them. Only after the fact do we say, “Hey, this guy killed a lot of people. Somebody should have done something to stop him.” Until after the fact, nothing Stephen Paddock did would have raised so much as an eyebrow.

Watch the video below and tell me where some low level employee should have been alerted to the MGM shooter.

To be fair, and if Russian State TV is any indication, the Kremlin has been acting like it wants war as much as the Dems do. A lot of cards fall to the ground when the President of the Free World won’t oblige. No we will not validate Russian delusions of grandeur and restart the Cold War. And we have zero interest in World War III. Thanks.

The Dems just need a scapegoat for their failures and Russi seems convenient.

Clinton basically ran on a “war with russia” platform. As to why, I can only assume it was for the federal government to become even more intrusive in the everyday lives of average Americans under the guise of “protecting the homeland from Russian spies” or to get more kickback from Military contracts. Seeing as she lost I can’t imagine many liberals are strongly pro-war (though after 2 years of Russophobic propaganda maybe that’s changing?)

Since there is that 1999 treaty with Russia about sending each other wanted persons who might have done crimes in each others country then I wonder what would happen if Putin made a formal request of such persons you have named including Soros if he currently is in country. I wonder what would happen if Trump should casually mention it in one of his tweets.

In the event of nuclear war, some Democrats might manage to survive.
If Trump declassifies all the documents, no Democrats will survive.

Therefore, Democrats are willing to take their chances with a nuclear exchange.

Look at it this way. They want a shooting war and what they’ll get is vaporized.

I wonder WTF they think they can accomplish with a full blown war with the number two country that holds nukes?

The stupid assholes havent thought, that if what they desire happens, we get to take on Red China also.

They don't. If Trump wanted war with Russia, they'd call him a warmonger and call for his impeachment.

To understand how batsh!t-crazy these people are, just look around the MSM and see how much credibility they give to globalists like John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Jennifer Rubin, etc. -- who the same MSM considered war criminals 15 years ago when these people were pushing endless wars under the second Bush administration.

The dirty little secret in 2016 is that a lot of Democrats refused to vote for Hillary Clinton because they knew damn well that she was running to lead what would effectively become the third globalist military/banking industrial complex term of George W. Bush.
