Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer on Friday called on President Trump to cancel his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the wake 12 Russian intelligence officers being charged with conspiring to hack Democrats during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Glad-handing with Vladimir Putin on the heels of these indictments would be an insult to our democracy, Schumer (N.Y.) said in a statement less than an hour after Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein detailed the new charges at a midday news conference.
Trump is scheduled to meet with Putin on Monday in Helsinki. During a joint news conference Friday with British Prime Minister Theresa May in Britain, Trump told reporters he would raise the issue of Russian interference in the election with Putin but that he doesnt expect a Perry Mason moment, where Putin confesses to meddling.

After much thought...no
Ultimately, Trump has got to know that this will make him look weak instead of some 'knight errant' fighting the machine.
Trump has support of the people. Why can't he strike now. In fact, as chief law enforcement officer can't he appoint his own special prosecutor? Historically, that authority, I believe has rested with the president.
There can be no greater conflict of interest within the DOJ than now. The president has a perfect situation to act.
Let them scream obstruction. They scream everything else.
And lastly, Drudge can cram his headlines up his backside. I am done with him.
Hey, Schmucky, if you want to decide who the president of the US meets with, or not, you’ll have to run for president and win. Hey, I think that’s a great idea. Throw your hat in the ring for 2020, Schmuck.
Otherwise, STFU.
I have no answers for your questions. I wish I knew why President Trump won’t act, besides some fantastical wishing from the Q crowd. It seems to me that he promised to drain the swamp. The swamp seems to be about the same size as it was before January of last year.
“How about.....NO!”
Color me clueless. I'm skeptical that anything will happen to anyone involved in this, other than an increase in their power. There is no evidence whatsoever, Q fantasies notwithstanding, that President Trump or AG Sessions are about to do anything in terms of exposing anyone for anything. I don't see it.
Trump has repeatedly stated that he is purposely holding back. So, when does it get to the point that this fetid parade becomes his personal responsibility to act.
Nobody is going to impeach him. If Trump thinks this is a parlor game... well, to me it is past its expiration date.
Schumer: Glad-handing with Vladimir Putin on the heels of these indictments would be an insult to our democracy, ...
Schumer, you keep using that word, “democracy”. I don’t think it means what you think it means. We have a republic.
(Hillary lost because she thought she would be the leader of a democracy ... silly woman).
It means greeting somebody warmly.
Like you’re really happy to meet them.
I used to think it meant greasing somebodys palm with money!
(same thing?)
LOL
No question that this country is on the brink of something. We definitely haven’t been a Constitutional republic for a very long time, and, as you say, states seem to follow very similar paths historically, eventually reaching a point where something has to break.
of these indictments would be an insult to our democracy, Schumer (N.Y.) said in a statemen
Make my head want to explode every time an idiot American gets Americas system of Government wrong! Shouldn’t an elected official have to know what form of Government he is participating in?
Or to our representative republic? Gawd, wadda maroon...
Igor: Dr. Frankenstein...Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "Fronkensteen."
Igor: You're putting me on.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: No, it's pronounced "Fronkensteen."
Igor: Do you also say "Froaderick"?
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: No... "Frederick."
Igor: Well, why isn't it "Froaderick Fronkensteen"?
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: It isn't; it's "Frederick Fronkensteen."
Igor: I see.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: You must be Igor.
[He pronounces it ee-gor]
Igor: No, it's pronounced "eye-gor."
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: But they told me it was "ee-gor."
Igor: Well, they were wrong then, weren't they?
I would love to convert this video to Rosenstein. lol
Young Rosenstein
Chuckie’s staff should pass him a note that the USA is NOT a democracy!
