Trump, Following Explosive News Reports, Denies He Worked For Russia
NPR ^ | Jan. 14, 2019 | Philip Ewing

Posted on 01/14/2019 10:16:07 AM PST by Innovative

President Trump on Monday denied that he has been trying to conceal details about his discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin after a pair of explosive press reports over the weekend.

"I never worked for Russia," Trump told reporters. "It's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's a whole big fat hoax. It's just a hoax." Trump also said he doesn't know anything about what happened to the notes taken by an interpreter when he met with Putin last summer in Finland or after other meetings with the Russian leader.

The Washington Post reported that Trump has taken at least one interpreter's notes after a meeting with Putin and instructed a linguist not to brief anyone else in the administration about what the two leaders had discussed during their closed-door meeting.

They were trying to say at one point this morning that Trump was evasive on this to Jeannine Pirro. WTH are they talking about?

"...Trump, Following Explosive News Reports, Denies He Worked For Russia..."

This is why I have been (for decades) incensed that my tax dollars go to NPR or PBS. They should have every single penny of taxpayer money removed from their budget.

If they can survive, fine. It's a free world. If not, they can close up shop and put every single Leftist working there out on the street to look for real work.

I am fine either way.

Not long before we'll start hearing that a consensus of Federal law enforcement agree that Trump was working for Russia.

I think we already did. Back about 2 years ago there was some B.S. "consensus" that 17 U.S.security agencies agreed there was Russian "meddling" in the election. Then we later learned the story was garbage.

Questions, investigations, innuendo and lies. TWO solid years nothing but could he have? Did he? BUT never any answers or clarifications, just big matzo balls left hanging. Now the Dozens of Democrats planning to run will add more speculation and innuendo with preposterous allegations and comments, which will continue until the 2020. DJT doesn’t have a snowballs chance in hell of winning a second term, people will be weary of the entire debacle.

How is NPR essential service? Why are they still running?

Ever notice how the federally funded democratic party propaganda machine is never shut down during a shut down?

My hard work goes to fund this organization that plots against me, plots against those who I elect, and plots against the Republic.
//////////////////////////////

When the controversial budget items came up, NPR was just tossed into the package with *Planned Parenthood* funding and allowed to pass. Trump did not withdraw the package. RINOs made sure their bribes, er, contributions to campaigns from lobbyists continued unimpeded.

By the way, what favors did the RINOs give Trump for giving in? And did NPR thank Trump by laying off a little? No. And did Trump then appear more flexible and lovable to the unwashed voters? No-—polls still low and the midterms showed voters are still not on board with him.

Yes, our entire tax amounts combined for all our lifetime could be said to have funded part of NPR and Planned baby murdering, or Parenthood. Shameful.

“It makes my blood boil to hear these so-called reporters ask a sitting president such an outrageous question...”

The question is the goal, it is a smear in and of itself, orchestrated to keep the pot boiling. The question is to be referred to over and over until the 2020 election.

Which reminds me, Trump had better declassify the documents or these accusations will be hardened into accepted facts.

It is maddening that America funds NPR. I listen to the hourly propaganda and it is pathetic drivel.

Democrats should be living in Russia. They can’t talk about the problems of our country.

Fake party. Fake posturing. Fake news.

".... Trump, Following Explosive FALSE News Reports, Denies He Worked For Russia...."

Since the media knows that Mueller hasn't found any collusion with Russia after two years of turning over every leaf he can find, they are starting a new narrative.

Now Trump worked for Russia? What was his job? How much did they pay him? Did they send him a W-2 or a 1099 so he can report it on his taxes?

Seriously, Donald Trump is the President of the United States, the Commander-in-Chief of the largest and most powerful military on earth, the leader of the free world and a self-made billionaire in his own right and he needs a job with Russia?

Where do they come up with this crappola?
