Donald Trump has suggested he trusts Russian president Vladimir Putin more than the "lowlifes" who work in U.S. intelligence.
In a post on Truth Social, the former president referenced comments he gave after meeting with Putin in Helsinki, Finland, in 2018 when he said that he didn't "see any reason" why Russia would have meddled in the 2016 election, despite what the FBI stated.
Trump once again suggested he trusts Putin over U.S. intelligence while sharing an a article about former FBI official Charles McGonigal, a leading figure in the FBI's investigation into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia ahead of the 2016 election.
McGonigal was recently arrested on suspicion of a number of offenses, including working with a sanctioned Russian oligarch.

We HAVE to get this man re-elected. The biggest in-your-face in history!!!
Certainly Trump is aware that US intelligence agencies were in cahoots with the globalists to undermine his presidency, it was blatantly obvious. So yeah, why would he trust them? He knows how to deal with Putin, and can do it without pushing us into WW3 as the neocons want.
Yes it will, unless you're still looking to woo some airhead Suburban housewife
I'm an independent, and so are most of the members of my family. This is the kind of leadership America needs, not some pudgy Republican lifer.
At least with Putin you know what you’re dealing with.
“I don’t trust Putin at all and I suspect Trump doesn’t either, making that a most awesome, badass comment. 👍”
Yes, he used that phrasing to emphasize how much he doesn’t trust Intelligence.
An element of truth? We both know there more than an element.

You sir, sound like a dour Republican. Cheer up, have a laugh.
Why? If you can’t speak of the problem of our intelligence agencies morphing into a secret political police choosing leaders and spying domestically to suppress dissent… how can you ever fix it?
Shout it loud.
Yet those very same folks had no problem with Soetero’s hot mic.
hot mic” moment in 2012, when Obama told Russian President Dmitry Medvedev “after my election I have more flexibility.”
Medvedev replied that he would “transmit this information to Vladimir,” as in Putin, the current president who was prime minister at the time.
Nothing about that, right?
Why? It's the truth.
Not gonna say no more... gotta be careful these days.
They raided his residence and falsely accused him of colluding with Russia bankrupting his associates.
I just don’t see national security as a valid punch line. And there’s a lot more to this world than what does or doesn’t happen to Trump. Many will see this shallow statement, and wonder, just whose side is he on?
Who’s side are you on, the establishment?
If you still believe America has national security, I'd suggest that is the punchline.
Yes, I know. 😏
It’s “Deep State” Security.
Fixed it.
Not Putin’s, when compared to most anything else.
Sure, as a candidate for president tell people the truth, entitlements like welfare and social security will have to be cut. See what happens
