Trump gets flat out asked "hey, 100% of the USA intel agencies and your own DOJ say russia interfered with the election. Putin said they did not. Which do you believe?"

Trump: "yeah, where is the server? And where are her emails?"

POLITICAL PARTY 1 and [GUN RIGHTS ORGANIZATION] sure do keep everything anonymous and shrouded in mystery.

So when Trump said "second amendment people" can stop Hillary, he didn't actually mean assassination but instead collusion with the Kremlin to influence American elections.

I saw one of the Mexican Navy's big (ex-USN) amphib ships leaving San Diego this morning. They were flying all the NATO countries' flags from their masts underneath the US and Mexican flags. I can't help but believe that was deliberate.

I worry that the GOP will realize that they can further cement their hold on power with the help of Russian interference. Given that they've been plenty willing to put party over country so far, the latter, as unthinkable as it is, is entirely within the realm of probability...

OK I know "LOL John McCain is concerned" but this is still p good.

John McCain posted:

Today’s press conference in Helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory. The damage inflicted by President Trump’s naiveté, egotism, false equivalence, and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate. But it is clear that the summit in Helsinki was a tragic mistake.

President Trump proved not only unable, but unwilling to stand up to Putin. He and Putin seemed to be speaking from the same script as the president made a conscious choice to defend a tyrant against the fair questions of a free press, and to grant Putin an uncontested platform to spew propaganda and lies to the world.

It is tempting to describe the press conference as a pathetic rout – as an illustration of the perils of under-preparation and inexperience. But these were not the errant tweets of a novice politician. These were the deliberate choices of a president who seems determined to realize his delusions of a warm relationship with Putin’s regime without any regard for the true nature of his rule, his violent disregard for the sovereignty of his neighbors, his complicity in the slaughter of the Syrian people, his violation of international treaties, and his assault on democratic institutions throughout the world.

Coming close on the heels of President Trump’s bombastic and erratic conduct towards our closest friends and allies in Brussels and Britain, today’s press conference marks a recent low point in the history of the American Presidency. That the president was attended in Helsinki by a team of competent and patriotic advisors makes his blunders and capitulations all the more painful and inexplicable.

No prior president has ever abased himself more abjectly before a tyrant. Not only did President Trump fail to speak the truth about an adversary; but speaking for America to the world, our president failed to defend all that makes us who we are—a republic of free people dedicated to the cause of liberty at home and abroad. American presidents must be the champions of that cause if it is to succeed. Americans are waiting and hoping for President Trump to embrace that sacred responsibility. One can only hope they are not waiting totally in vain.

Shame it won't matter :smith:
