When Trump said he doesn't see why Russia would interfere with the election, he really meant he doesn't see why it WOULND'T be Russia. I can sleep easy tonight. Thank God!

Look, people. Trump is a grandmaster 5D chess player. Let's say Putin has dirt on Trump. Okay. So, Trump pisses off Putin. What's Putin gonna do? Rat out Trump? What, and give up his leverage. Trump is an elite strategist who knows how to make deals. Go to Helsinki, a foreign country, and say a bunch of stupid shit. Then come back to the USA and claim he meant the exact OPPOSITE of what he really said. Checkmate, bitches!

it's not like he's pretended Putin wanted Hillary to win before, or anything... suggesting his original word is EXACTLY what he meant as is obvious

let's also ignore everything else he said that was entirely about casting doubt on the intel agencies

such total bullshit

How much winking and nudging do you think he gave Putin before this announcement?


And either way, damage is done. The Russia propaganda machine will make this look like a win for Putin at home, while appeasing Trump's tard base just enough that fox can go full propaganda on it.

not much pondering needed

he's denied Putin wanted him to win continuously (unfortunately his owner stabbed him in the back & admitted he wanted Trump to win)

plus all comments surrounding it suggest he doesn't believe the intel community

but of course you love when Trump lies to your face

"President Trump did right thing today in clarifying his comments in helsinki-reiterating his respect for and support of Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and the intelligence community. President responded quickly and clearly once he realized he had used wrong language."

Trump managed to fuck up again today

he was asked if Russia is still targeting the U.S., Trump looked at the reporter & said "No"... twice... then answered another question

Sarah Sanders, to the rescue claims, he meant "No" (I don't want to take any questions)... even though he didn't say any of those words, has never done that (he just sits silently w/ his stupid resting face when not wanting to answer), and did answer another question afterward

CBS finally managed to pin him down & w/ nowhere to escape he reluctantly decided he held Putin to be responsible

-----

GLOR: "But you haven't condemned Putin, specifically. Do you hold him personally responsible?"

TRUMP: "Well, I would, because he's in charge of the country. Just like I consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. So certainly as the leader of a country you would have to hold him responsible, yes."

-----

odd that didn't come up in interviews w/ Hannity & Tucker Carlson... & that he did not have any criticism of Putin whatsoever when standing next to him... or in tweets...

also, he considers himself responsible for things that happen here? ha! only if positive, & whether he had any role or not

if Trump had his way we'd have a joint Russia/US team in charge of our cyber security, the sources and methods used to identify the Russian meddlers would be shared with Russian investigators, and we'd be handing over any Americans they wanted to question

hey how about that, Sarah Sanders releasing a new statement... (but still kissing Putin's ass at Trump's insistence presumably)

~ Sarah Sanders

so EXACTLY like when Trump tweeted:
"Putin & I discussed forming an impenetrable Cyber Security unit so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded and safe"

then claimed to oppose it after roundly thrashed

WHY MENTION IT AT ALL IF YOU DON'T AGREE, because he DIDN'T disagree... on either

in fact Trump called it an 'incredible offer' at the summit

”WASHINGTON—The White House is reviewing a request by Russian President Vladimir Putin to allow Russian investigators to question a number of Americans they say are implicated in criminal activity, including a former U.S. ambassador, a spokeswoman said.”


Maybe Trump wants Russian experts to investigate this case. Like he wants Mexican experts to work on his Golf place.

The Russians are good at this. Perhaps they could also use waterboarding on the Americans, to find out the truth. Or maybe the Russians has better methods?

as saakashvili and other luminaries have pointed out.. trump has been incredibly more tough on russia than putin’s patsy obama

this is most of obama’s record..

2010 obama agrees to give russia secrets about britain’s nuclear weapons on their submarines..
2012 putin’s patsy obama tells romney that the 80s called and want their foreign policy back.. obama caught telling medvedev he will have more flexibility to negotiate after the election..
2014 after totally not being involved in antidemocratic coup in ukraine that didn’t happen.. obama refuses for the rest of his term to supply arms to ukraine government..
2016 after russia launches attack on america the likes of pearl harbor or 911.. all obama does is expel 35 diplomats and put sanctions on gru and fsb and a few other individuals.. imagine if fdr had responded to pearl harbor by just expelling some diplomats and putting sanctions on japanese navy [and that’s it].. ridiculous..

.... and then there’s stuff like obama joining with russia to get iran nice jcop deal.. or refusing to bomb russian ally syria



now compare trump’s incredibly tough record on russia..

2017 trump signs new sanctions against russian defense and energy.. trump closes russian diplomatic offices in nyc dc and sf.. makes rt register as foreign agent.. trump authorizes arms shipments to ukraine government
2018 trump kills hundreds of russians in syria.. trump expels 60 russian diplomats in largest such expulsion in entire usa history.. closes seattle consulate.. makes sputnik register as foreign agent.. trump administration enacts another round of sanctions on russia.. trump tries to get germany to stop supplying russia with huge fortunes from natural gas deals which russia then uses to threaten and subvert west

.... and then there are other things like trump bombing russian allied syrian government.. or withdrawal from obama/putin supported iran deal.. or appointing virulently anti-russian figures like bolton pompeo or haley to senior positions


it’s pretty obvious putin had poo-poo tape or similar kompromat he used to blackmail obama to be his patsy.. and that trump has been free and fearless in savagely opposing russia at virtually every possible turn

now he's finally pretending to accept Russia meddled but he's still not bothered by it at all

you can't possibly think he's tough on Russia if you watched the press conference, Putin is his favorite leader

"Look at the sanctions I put on, look at the diplomats I threw out...
Obama didn’t do it. Obama was a patsy for Russia, he was a total patsy"
~Trump

of course Obama -did- put on sanctions & -did- throw out diplomats, whereas congress passed veto-proof sanctions that Trump slow-walked, and Trump told Russia not to retaliate for Obama tossing people as he'd fix it

& Trump has never advocated, in tweet or ramble, for any sanctions/expulsions/punishment against Russia on any issue (nor shown any problem w/ them attacking our election)


he retweeted this completely unacceptable comment today:
"The Summit with Russia was a great success, except with the real enemy of the people, the Fake News Media."

and tweeted this before his date w/ Putin:
"Our relationship with Russia has NEVER been worse thanks to many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity and now, the Rigged Witch Hunt!"

let’s say there are two crime families headed by don don and don vito.. on social media and in meetings with each other don don keeps saying nice things about vito.. meanwhile don don starts supplying weapons to vito’s enemies and hitting vito’s soldiers with st valentine’s massacre and orchestrating own initiated sanctions [see april 2018 round] and telling other crime bosses to stop doing business with don vito and on and on.. meanwhile don don keeps saying nice things about don vito on twitter and meetings between two.. even though don don knows he could secure position inside his own family by instead saying lots of mean nasty things about don vito since that would obviously be popular inside own crime family..

meanwhile don vito seems paralyzed and does nothing serious in return.. vito has a wide variety of ways to attack back don don’s family.. like using hackers he employs to launch massive attack on don don’s businesses.. or using vast enormous fleet of automated car bombs to blow up the businesses and houses [with families inside] of as many enemy soldiers and civilians as he wants.. but don vito does nothing significant.. as if he is under don don’s hypnotic spell

which hypnotic spell perhaps is unsurprising since don don is master of arcane arts of hypnosis and persuasion.. which he has previously used to amass huge personal fortune and rise to the top of his own most pwerful crime family in world [despite facing many skilled competitors and foes opposing him]..



it’s pretty clear american people don’t really care much about russia.. gallup keeps polling americans for most serious problem.. and situation with russia is usually lower than north korea and is never more than tied [or more than 1%].. [maybe they are aware of their own pattern of meddling in foreign countries.. or that every significant government in world is hacking leaders and government of just about everybody else in world].. people in usa are just using these silly “putin’s puppet argument” because they will use any argument when they hate trump and want him out of office for other reasons..

and basically all americans definitely don’t want real escalating war with russia [whatever morgan freeman says] over such minor issues because they know dangers of such.. and that is what trump has been doing.. trump is hitting russia while he hypnotizes and paralyses and confuses putin into thinking they’re friends thus keeping russia from hitting back.. in trump’s masterfully played 5d chess game he only uses for the good of america [when obviously trump would be more popular with media and others at home if he stopped saying nice things about putin in his 5d attacks with master hypnosis and persuasion tactics]

yeah, the 4-D chess defense...

i'll go with Occam's razor... Trump defended & supported Russia throughout campaign, Trump was told definitively that Russia attacked us when he took office & has done nothing but cast doubt to the public since, Trump blames Russia for nothing... Crimea was Obama's fault, the airplane: 'no one knows for sure', the murdering people: 'we have a lot of killers too'

no indication arming Ukrainians or any sanctions were Trump's idea, only the opposite

if Trump was a Russian agent not sure what he would have done differently

if trump was russian agent he would be doing the things putin’s patsy obama had done [like not arming ukraine or giving nuclear secrets to russia] rather than impressive tough list given for trump.. with actions speaking louder than words [as saakashvili says in supporting trump.. whereas putin has been entirely blinded by trump’s use of hypnotic words]
