He also failed to condemn Russian interference in his getting elected, the GOP for not standing up to him, his cabinet for not having ethics, his…

Crap. Seems like there’s a lot he hasn’t condemned.

U.S. Allies Also Intercept Russia-Trump Adviser Communications

As part of intelligence operations being conducted against the United States for the last seven months, at least one Western European ally intercepted a series of communications before the inauguration between advisers associated with President Donald Trump and Russian government officials, according to people with direct knowledge of the situation.

Rock it out guys, America is worth saving.

God Save The Queen.

I know that through Bannon, Trump is connect to anti-semitic people. But how do people connect the dots with that fact and his relationship with his son in law, his daughter’s conversion etc.? Those folks are very very influential to him. Is the antisemitic slam on Trump from his connection with Bannon only?

President Bannon is not pleased with this unprovoked zionist attack. Time to launch the missiles.

Perhaps Christmas cards? A Super Bowl party invitation? Tedious, self-agrandizing annual family update emails?

More OT but still it’s breaking. They have e-mails!!!

U.S. Allies Also Intercept Russia-Trump Adviser Communications

The sources said the intercepted communications are not just limited to telephone calls: The foreign agency is also gathering electronic and human source information on Trump’s overseas business partners, at least some of whom the intelligence services now consider to be agents of their respective governments. These operations are being conducted out of concerns that Russia is seeking to manipulate its relationships with Trump administration officials as part of a long-term plan to destabilize the NATO alliance.

Unless these emails were on Hillary’s private, hackable email server it doesn’t sound very suspicious.

Mostly. But it is also because he carefully refuses to condemn it in others, as the ADL notes, since doesn’t want to alienate his racist, anti-Semitic, alt-right base. Trump may not himself be anti-Semitic, but he fosters and condones it in others.

Also, Trump is just an ass. He’s happy to have Jews around to deal with the things with which he thinks they are (stereo-typically) good. Remember when he reportedly said he wanted Jews, not black people, counting his money?

Trump will not condemn anything if it helped him win. From his perspective, if it helped him win, it is good. So get with it, Jews. Trump got the antisemite vote so antisemitism is a good thing. Join in the coalition. What have you got to lose?

I am in favor of the John Cleese solution, the one that recognizes Americans are no longer capable of voting wisely and governing themselves…

Comrade Coir Coif did speak out against anti-Semitism, sort of. In fact, he took time out from one of his in-depth semi-daily security briefings to do so.

“And so it goes.”

Is the ADL serious? Trump has called for a ban of all people of the Muslim faith from entering the United States. And they’re expecting him to denounce antisemitism?
Please.

The Republicans are very close to winning their decades-long war against the very concept of competence and expertise.

This is so unfair. Trump is deeply concerned about the non Jewish victims of anti-Semitism!
