Sorry , Newbie here ! (from UK)
Never seen a thread go to 213 pages so have to chip in .
Just had him for a few days , he insulted the germans at a Nato gathering,
Told the europeans that Theresa May was stuffing Brexit. Then denied that and became the ardent supporter .
Told Mrs may to Sue the EU. Which court FFS, EU runs the fecking court!
Licks Putins Backside after he poisoned folks around salisbury , Annexed Crimea, and when 12 of Putins loyal staff have been endited for hacking the opposition.
Every one knows he is a crook , treats women with contempt , and does not deny he paid off porn stars.
If he stands again I suspect he will have no first lady, but will he get re-elected . I hope not !Comment

250 years ago conservatives were called tories and shot or hung! Wonder how much longer blaming every thing he does on Hillary will work? There was enough collusion from Trump at Putin's press conference to put anybody else in prison. But like Trump said he could shoot somebody in the middle of the street and his base would protect him! I suppose that makes all of his base guilty and certainly unAmerican!Driving that train, high on cocaine

Putin offered permitting officials in the US, including Mueller, to Russia to assist in their investigation of the supposed Trump-Russia collusion story. Then Putin dropped his bomb where the US could reciprocate Russia in one of their investigations –
For instance, we can bring up Mr. Browder, in this particular case. Business associates of Mr. Browder have earned over $1.5 billion in Russia and never paid any taxes neither in Russia or the United States and yet the money escaped the country. They were transferred to the United States. They sent [a] huge amount of money, $400,000,000, as a contribution to the campaign of Hillary Clinton. Well that’s their personal case. It might have been legal, the contribution itself but the way the money was earned was illegal.

Trending: Trump and Putin at the #TreasonSummit
At the conclusion of President Trump’s extraordinary joint news conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, critical reaction flooded in from members of the media, political analysts and government officials, but none resonated more than that of CNN anchor Anderson Cooper.
“You have been watching one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president at a summit in front of a Russian leader that I’ve ever seen,” Cooper said in reaction to Trump’s repeated deflections on the question of whether Putin’s government had meddled in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
On Friday, Trump’s Department of Justice announced the indictment of 12 Russian intelligence officers for their roles in hacking the Democratic National Committee’s computer server and passing damaging information to WikiLeaks so as to aid Trump’s campaign against Hillary Clinton.
In Helsinki, Trump insisted that he held “both countries responsible” for the poor relations between the countries, notwithstanding the conclusion of his own intelligence agencies that the Kremlin interfered with the 2016 elections and has continued its attempts to subvert American democracy. Russia continues to be under sanctions by the U.S. and the European Union over its invasion and annexation of Crimea.
The lengths that Trump went to in defending Putin seemed to surprise just about everyone who watched the performance, including commentators on the president’s favorite network, Fox News.
“That was quite something,” Fox News host Bret Baier proclaimed at the conclusion of Monday’s press conference. “Almost surreal at points. … The way that [Trump] dealt with it, defending himself — really not going after President Putin — was pretty interesting to watch.”
The gravity of what had transpired in Helsinki was also not lost on ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, who framed the news conference as a watershed moment.
Even Drudge Report could not help but conclude that Putin had gotten what he wanted from the meeting with Trump.
Perhaps more important than the media verdict on the news conference was what members of Congress made of it, starting with House Speaker Paul Ryan.
“There is no question that Russia interfered in our election and continues attempts to undermine democracy here and around the world,” Ryan said in a statement. “That is not just the finding of the American intelligence community but also the House Committee on Intelligence. The president must appreciate that Russia is not our ally. There is no moral equivalence between the United States and Russia, which remains hostile to our most basic values and ideals.”
Arizona Sen. John McCain, who had voiced his reservations about the summit before it took place, pulled no punches about his assessment over what had transpired.

Today’s press conference in #Helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory.
My full statement on the #HelsinkiSummit: https://www.mccain.senate.gov/public...A-5AEDF0685EC5 …
America wants a good relationship with the Russian people but Vladimir Putin and his thugs are responsible for Soviet-style aggression,” Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said in a written statement. “When the President plays these moral equivalence games, he gives Putin a propaganda win he desperately needs.”
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., saw Trump’s remarks as a violation of his sworn constitutional duty.
“For the President of the United States to stand next to Vladimir Putin — who personally ordered one of the largest state-sponsored cyber-attacks in our history — and side with Putin over America’s military and intelligence leaders is a breach of his duty to defend our country against its adversaries.”
Mitt Romney, the former Republican presidential nominee and current U.S. Senate candidate in Utah, also took issue with the president’s apparent refusal to accept the findings of his own intelligence agencies.
“President Trump’s decision to side with Putin over American intelligence agencies is disgraceful and detrimental to our democratic principles. Russia remains our number one geopolitical adversary; claiming a moral equivalence between the United States and Russia not only defies reason and history, it undermines our national integrity and impairs our global credibility,” Romney said in a statement.
At least one Republican office holder, Ohio county GOP chairman Chris Gagin, concluded that he could no longer represent his party as a result of the Trump’s remarks.
Dan Coats, Trump’s own national intelligence director, took the remarkable step of issuing his own statement that refuted the president following the press conference.
“The role of the Intelligence Community is to provide the best information and fact-based assessments possible for the President and policymakers,” Coats said in his statement. “We have been clear in our assessments of Russian meddling in the 2016 election and their ongoing, pervasive efforts to undermine our democracy, and we will continue to provide unvarnished and objective intelligence in support of our national security.”
Former CIA Director John Brennan said Trump’s statements at the news conference were enough for Congress to consider impeachment.
“Donald Trump’s press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of ‘high crimes & misdemeanors.’ It was nothing short of treasonous,” Brennan tweeted. “Not only were Trump’s comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???”
Former U.S. Ambassador to Russia Thomas Pickering was also left aghast.
“It’s a breathtaking denial of something that is so clearly obviously true that it represents the epitome of President Trump’s effort at self-promotion over defending the national interest of the United States,” Pickering said on MSNBC.
The reaction to Trump’s defense of Putin was so strong on Twitter that the hashtag #TreasonSummit quickly topped the list of trending topics. (Other commenters preferred #SurrenderSummit.) The conclusion of many observers was equally intense.Take my 45 and outrun em all ..Comment

Nah, lots of other stuff but that's one campaign promise I'd like to see filled " Lock her up!" I'm surprised the Sanders followers rolled so easy when the DNC pushed him out.
I don't think Trump did the best for posturing the US today, but then again, I wasn't in the room so who knows what really went down.
Interesting Wallace interview, if a shred of what Putin was said is accurate, the Russians under covered massive corruption in the DNC and exposed it. Maybe connect the dots. Hilary couldn't accept defeat because it was supposed to a walk off- The FBI and DOJ had an "insurance policy" to make sure it happened , the Russian exposed it which all fed into MAGA......Ahhhh collusion.......nothing new, the spy game is been going on since day one.
Whether he did well or not, open communication is always a good thing, better then an arms race or subjugating the US with Barry O bows

This mentality is the whole problem with talking politics with the left. It has nothing to do with whether or not Hillary won or lost the election.
The fact is we have a TON of Evidence ACTUALLY proving the Clinton's colluded with the Russians to tamper in this past election, yet people like you conflate it to "whataboutism" when people like me (who aren't even Trump supporters) remind you of those facts.
The fact is, she was a fuckin' crook. And when you have Putin himself saying they've been conducting their own investigations and can prove that at LEAST $400 million in un-taxed donations went straight to Hillary, yet people like you STILL persist with the whole, "Yeah but she didn't win" nonsense, or the media completely ignores it, THAT is when you know we have a serious fucking problem.
Like, Putin got up on a fuckin' stage this afternoon and flat out told the world he was confident he had intel that proved Hillary's campaign was working with Russian businessmen, and yet NO ONE is reporting it. Instead, they're all trying to paint Trump as some kind of boot licking commie sympathizer.
People drastically underestimate this dude's intelligence. You know what being richer than god buys you? The fuckin' lawyers who'd defend God himself in a corruption trial. MAYBE Trump is being so adamant that he had nothing to do with it and that Putin's doing good work because he sees the very clear and immediate character assassination taking place before his very eyes. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see how incredibly biased the media is--and has been--against him since Day One.
I'd be defensive too.Comment

Republicans should get it through their heads that their base doesn't give a fuck about Russia. Neocon Rubio couldn't even win his home state.Comment
