US President Donald Trump has defended Russia over claims of interference in the 2016 presidential election.To assert that, Trump has to be either a Russian asset, insane or a moron, or a mixture of all three.
After face-to-face talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Mr Trump contradicted US intelligence agencies and said there had been no reason for Russia to meddle in the vote.
...
At a news conference after the summit, President Trump was asked if he believed his own intelligence agencies or the Russian president when it came to the allegations of meddling in the elections.
"President Putin says it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it should be," he replied.
Putin's a fucking intelligence professional. Bald-faced lying is the stock-in-trade for spooks.
The difference, though, is that Putin knows when he is telling a lie. Trump, on the other hand, is delusional. I question whether he knows he's lying, or he's telling the truth according to his own reality. One thing about people who are delusional, they really do believe that they are seeing and hearing what they say they are seeing and hearing.
One has to wonder what sort of proof it will take for the Trumpanzees to come to grips with the fact that they have supported a man who is either crazier than a box of weasels or is a Russian spy. They'll probably still be believing it after Trump defects to Russia.
Update: In this photo, Trump looks like a man who has been forced to eat a turd.
Trump and his fans will not admit to, or do anything about, Russia attacking our elections as long as he and they think they are benefiting from it.
ReplyDeleteI think it will come back and bite them really hard, but here's the thing about that: I don't really care if they get poetic justice for their misdeeds, I care about the damage they are doing to the country in the mean while.

dinb, exactly the damage being done is the worst part, however watching his supporters roasting on spit could prove soothing. The roasting is only symbolic for some greatly unpleasant epiphany of course.
ReplyDeleteIf he is indeed compromised, it will come out in time, and the firestorm will be amusing.
ReplyDeleteThose emails though. If only the democrats hadn't forced me to vote for him. Can you imagine what a state our country would be in if Hillary had won??
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that makes sense is that he is a communist . An old school Russian communist that disliked the Chinese and exploited the workers in the USSR .
ReplyDeleteWell, at least he didn't sell Russia our uranium like Hillary did.
ReplyDeleteGee, Tewshooz, of you’re gonna run with the “Whataboutism” wing, you gotta get on the same page. Old story, too disproven to use because it won’t stick...better check that Trump(tm) Super-Duper Decoder Ring for the new spin.
ReplyDeleteWe all know that the "Shithole was innocent!" conspiracy theory will last for as long as there are people that hate other people based on skin color.
ReplyDeleteWhat I see in that pic is tRump trying to do his best to throw Putin off balance with the "tiny trump grip of death".
ReplyDeletePutin on the other hand has a death grip on the far side of his chair!
tRump among so many other faults, insists on playing grip games when greeting Heads of State. Pathetic, small man child.
Traitor too, less any forget.
