I can confirm it.


Yes, we are going to re-elect Mr. Trump. Already are.
No, you can't stop us.
Trump is inevitable. Sorry.

Though intelligence officials have previously informed lawmakers that Russia’s interference campaign was ongoing, last week’s briefing did contain what appeared to be new information, including that Russia intends to interfere with the ongoing Democratic primaries as well as the general election.

What's about people who voted these glories enablers into the office, the types like Lyin' Ted? What should we do with them? Asking for a friend.

Moscow Don has been groomed by the Russians as far back as the late 1980's. Trump visited Moscow in 1987. This goes long before the piss tape.

The problem is everyone here doesn’t take anything you post as serious so you couldn’t annoy anyone here with a jfern tier bad take because most would assume it’s a joke

Of course Putin backs his lapdog. Which other prez would stand on stage with him and side with him over his own intel service?

None would.

We have a literal traitor in the White House and about 45% of the population are willing to support him.

Romney showed no sign of selling out his country. Putin had no cause to take sides in that Presidential race.

It's as clear as it can be.

I want GOP voters to seriously consider two things:

-Why does Russia want Trump to be president?
-Why is Trump trying to hide this fact from the American people?

I await answers.

They're saying that Sanders is favored by the Russians as well.

Now I ask you:  If TRUMP is the Russian's fave and SANDERS is the Russian Dem Fave, and this narrative can gain ground in the media, who benefits?

Bloomberg?

Biden?

Tom Perez?

The Democratic Establishment?

The #NeverTrumpers (who may have to walk their talk by supporting Sanders in the end)?

The idea that Trump is a "Russian Asset" is ridiculous.  But one only has to look at who benefits from this narrative to become skeptical.  Aside from the lack of facts backing it up.  Speculation and attempts at mind-reading don't substitute for facts, but this is Atlas, and facts are often at a premium.

And Sanders was apparently favored by the Russians back in 2016 as well. It doesn't surprise me that Trump is denying what his intelligence agencies are saying on the matter; it's obvious that he doesn't care for their opinions at this point if they don't align with his own viewpoints. But nevertheless, the Russians have a clear objective of attempting to interfere with our electoral process. However, given that our media has been actively reporting on their activities, and given that most people are already "locked in" with their support for one candidate or another, I doubt it will make any significant impact.

You await answers because (A) you have none, and (B) neither do the shills you put such faith in, as evidenced by the Kyle Griffin tweet.

Perhaps if Russia (or whomever) can get Americans to believe that Putin "wants" Trump (and Sanders, to be sure) to "win", this will help one of the "approved" Democratic candidates to win in the end.

These "leaks" comes when Trump's approval goes upp and Bernie becomes a clear front-runner.


Luckily, both Trump and Bernie understand who are the Enemy of the People.



Bernie:
“- I’ll let you guess, about one day before the Nevada caucus. Why do you think it came out?
- It was the Washington Post? Good friends!”

Who is talking about free press? It's about Fake News who together with Schiff succeeded to make low-informed Democrats to believe conspiracies like this one>>>






Now, they are trying to do same against Bernie. Too late!   Unamused
