Trump spoke after a brief meeting with Putin on the margins of an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) summit in Vietnam. As he did so, he launched a tirade against special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into possible collusion between his campaign and the Kremlin.
The investigation could cost “millions and millions of lives”, Trump claimed, by hindering agreement with Moscow over conflicts in Syria and Ukraine and a looming confrontation with North Korea.
The president’s remarks, made to reporters as Air Force One flew to Hanoi from Da Nang, represented his open disregard for the views of US intelligence agencies which have concluded that Russia did interfere in multiple ways in the 2016 election, with the aim of helping Trump’s candidacy.
The president described the investigation led by Mueller, a former FBI director appointed by Trump’s own justice department, as “Democrat-inspired” and a “hit job”.
Trump also claimed the investigation was preventing a normalisation of relations with Putin and therefore could cost countless lives around the world.

“democrat inspired”, GOPe endorsed
thne issue is tyhe phony collusion scam that has no basis in fact.We have much in common with modern Russia and they couldnt effect our election if they wanted to. The premise is absurd. It assumes mindless idiots reading facebook and going to the polls because of some ad that was purchased. What is the answer = NUKE RUSSIA? This collusion scam has run it’s coarse so muller indicts non entities in the administration for “money laundering “ under an obtuse and little known statute. Trump needs to crack down hard.
Trump: ‘People will die’ because of the Russia investigation
https://thinkprogress.org/trump-people-will-die-russia-investigation-5a59594beedb/
“People will die because of it, and it’s a pure hit job,” Trump said aboard Air Force One.
“Trump also claimed the investigation was preventing a normalisation of relations with Putin and therefore could cost countless lives around the world”.
DJT is exactly right. The Deep State/Globalist Elite want confrontation and war.
At the end of the Cold War they go their “Peace Dividend” and furthered their agenda through Social Engineering/Entitlement programs.
Now they want war and confrontation again.
“So you look at it, I mean, you have Brennan, you have Clapper and you have Comey,” he said. “Comey is proven now to be a liar and he is proven now to be a leaker.”
“I mean, give me a break, they are political hacks,” Trump said, according to pool reports.
Would that be the same US Intelligence agencies who missed 9-11, dreamed up Saddams Chemical weapons, unmasked citizens connected to campaigns, didn’t know or identify the Las Vegas shooter.....that intelligence agency?
Look I know there are good guys in the CIA, NSA, there may even be a few good guys left in the FBI, but come on, how are we really expected to believe them when they are so politicized and not one good guy stepped forward to tell the truth
I love this man.
“which have concluded that Russia did interfere in multiple ways in the 2016 election, with the aim of helping Trump’s candidacy”
I’ve heard of no such conclusion.
Russia, Mexico, China, Germany, Britain, France, the entire EU , Cuba and every other tinpot nation interferes in our election for their own benefit. Don’t know that Russia could lose: they’d be fine with Trump or Clinton. So the conclusion is absurd and without factual basis.
I thought he meant Democrat lives, like Seth Rich.
These are not the words of a president secretly in cahoots with Mueller. These are the words of the POTUS in reaction to Mueller’s out of control witch hunt.
Leftists will kill anybody that gets in the way of their Great March Forward. Even their own.
According to ALL reports, neither the CIA or the FBI ever actually laid their hands on the supposed DNC server. The DNC wouldn’t let them see it, likely because it had some evidence of illegal activity on there. So the final DIA (Crapper) report was based solely on the supposed analysis from a 3rd party DNC partner, and now they want to claim it’s beyond reproach. Give me a break.
He cannot he seen as secretly colluding with Mueller. That would be illegal and could hurt the prosecution of the bad guys. It could just be disinformation.
Quite obviously. He's incredibly frustrated with how his own party members and even so-called supporters are backing Mueller, and things are unfortunately getting dangerous at this point.
The headline is a total misrepresentation on what Trump really said. He was referring to the witch hunt coming from the Democrats in general. He never referred to Mueller directly in this context. Here’s the quote.
“And this artificial Democratic hit job gets in the way. It gets in the way. And that’s a shame because people will die because of it. And it’s a pure hit job. And it’s artificially induced. And it’s a shame.”
Saddam had chemical weapons, however, the very long lead up to the actual invasion gave him time to send them off to Syria via the Bekaa Valley - the convoys were watched at the time but nothing was done - there were numerous aerial photos of the chemical sites before the stock, buildings, and equipment were removed and many after showing just desert.
Yes, a liberal psyop is the most likely explanation, to protect Mueller from criticism from Trump's base, and block any investigation of Mueller himself for uranium transfers to Russia. Unfortunately there is a large and fairly combative set of FReepers who are 120% dedicated to this bizarre conspiracy, including some old timers. Rather interesting we haven't seen a one since this story broke, but I'm sure they'll be out with their spin soon. Cheers.
You are exactly correct. They are being played by the deep state. The last thing the Deep State wants is millions of guns pointed at it.
