Everybody seems to forget that the hacking of the DNC computers revealed that Hillary and her cronies in the DNC
RIGGED THE PRIMARIES IN HER FAVOR, AGAINST BERNIE SANDERS.
Now, I’m no fan of that Socialist sack’o’shit, Sanders, but this (once again) proved Hillary’s corruption. The minute that this hit the news, the media and the Rats started with this “Russia, Russia, Russia” stuff.
Frankly, while I have few doubts that the Russians have attempted to spy on us and disrupt confidence in our elections (of course they did - they’ve done it to us for decades, and we’ve done similar things to them. EVERY sovereign nation does this sort of thing - and only naive idiots don’t understand this), I believe that the “hacking” of the DNC computers was an inside job. I saw an analysis (don’t remember where I saw it) that concluded that the ONLY way to have downloaded the data as fast as the server said it was downloaded, was via a thumb drive. Internet downloading would have been WAY too slow...meaning that it was an inside job.
WRT Trump and his handling of this matter, I believe that in order to best proceed he should:
1) Acknowledge that the USSR and Russia have been an adversary of this country for about 100 years;
2) Remind everyone (as he did yesterday) that the vast majority of deliverable nukes are owned by our 2 nations, and most of those are pointed at each other;
3) Remind everyone that it would definitely be a better state of affairs if said nukes pointing at each other were never used; and
4) That the best way to do that is to talk with the Russians - whether we like them or their policies, or not - and to initially take some baby steps toward improving our relations with a few simple agreements that will benefit both sides and highlight our common interests.
If he does that, then he’ll be fine. I dread that he may become like so many other Presidents, enthralled with a Soviet/Russian leader to the point of trusting them to not stick a knife in our backs at every opportunity. I know, he’s not that naive, and doesn’t give a damn about his public image so long as he can achieve his goals...but there’s always that siren song, and many that work for him are addicted to it.
HILLARY MIS SPOKE, SO DID HUSSEIN O...
media said nothing...but with DJT it is a different story and he will be trashed no matter what...
and MEDIA wonders why they are called FAKE NEWS?
ENOUGH SAID.
Cheers hoping Putin gave President Trump all 30,000 emails he hacked off Hillary’s phones and computer
Just DAMN! He caved?
Just tell them he wrote it late at night. Wasn’t doesn’t really mean “wasn’t”. Whatever “is” “is”.
Should I not have clarified anything. What he should do is call these phonies’ bluff. Get war authorization powers from Congress. Have them declare war on Russia and give Trump the power to fight it. Watch them cowar!
“I accept our intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election took place,” he said, adding: “It could be other people also.”
Trump already knows it was Seth Rich. He had to go through this nonsense to quell the storm. But I like the way he mentions “other people” as a signal he knows the truth.
well phuck....backing down is never a good thing. He should have talked about their hypocracy during the gulf war...bush lied people died, etc. now they have a scalp, never a good thing.
Oh well....He’s not perfect, but he’s damn better than I ever hoped he’d be.
To be honest, you couldn't PAY me enough money, to be constantly run through the meat grinder, like this man, and his family, have been.
I wrote a message to Fox News this afternoon saying I never thought I’d stop watching Outnumbered... Until today, and that The Five was probably not far behind (out the door). I’ve gotten tired of finding something else, like TCM or Pawn Stars so I can hit “previous channel” when Juan, Marie or the other lefty idiots’ mugs appear on the screen.
You know the scam FAKE media has their collective deep state stories in synch when every single one of them pees their panties collectively. Just like that Gold Star knave story. Hmmm. I would have preferred the President not say anything. It makes it appear he actually cares about what the FAKEs peddle on the airwaves. Tempest in a teapot though. Move on to the next fake news outrage.
They must have gotten to Trump somehow... I wish he had not had to apologize... they have done so much dirty attacks against him... They are unworthy of any apology or explanation.
I feel more kindly toward putin than I do any of those in our government.. I know putin is not my kind.. but the ones we send to Washington and all combined.. have done so much against us out here and Trump.. there is no respect left for them and their lies have become their best trait... they hate and revenge anyone that doesn’t bow.
A)
President Trunp” “The Russians meddled”
The news freaks: “Trump is a paid Kremlin troll.”
B)
President Trump: “I don’t know if the Russians meddled.”
The news freaks “Trump is a paid Kremlin troll.”
The boilerplate never varies
“So, I just wanted to clear up. I have the strongest respect for our intelligence agencies headed by my people. We have great people whether it’s Gina [Haspel] or Dan Coats or any of ‘em. I mean, we have tremendous people, tremendous talent within the agencies. I think they’re being guided properly and we all want the same thing: we all want success for our country.”
I don’t trust any of 0bama’s intelligence people either, 4 or 5 of them have lied in front of Congress and covered up for Hillary, they are as trustworthy as Putin.
I trust gas station sushi more than these guys
Not a good response but he is the President. Could have stated while accepting the report do not agree with report.
..
FOX FAKE NEWS HEADLINE
I listened to the whole thing and never heard him say that he “misspoke”.
He said he wanted to clear up…that he had great confidence in his intelligence community headed by his people!
Yikes not good. He is the POTUS meeting the President of Russia, and can’t keep his speaking points together?
Embarrassing.
Stupid. His people give him terrible advice. They tried this after Charlottesville. He came out and tried to walk it back before giving a presser the next day and calling out Antifa (which he should). Why not a statement saying Russia did do some meddling which has been condemned in words and actions, and they will face consequences if they do it in the midterms. He should have brought up all the times Obama acquiesced to Russia and the media didn’t care. Then I would end it with details as to why the meddling and collusion have been interlinked in the press and the abject bias of the intel agencies as to his doubt. Yeah, the media would have a fit, but who cares anymore? If I were him, I’d say what I believe and screw it.
