You can’t figure it out? Seriously?

I can give you the names and contact info for tens of millions of Americans who would gladly explain it all to you, Senator. (If you’re willing to listen, that is.)

“I think that the Trump administration is slow when it comes to Russia. They have a blind spot on Russia I still can’t figure out,”

Think Trump Tower to be conveniently located on Tverskaya St. in Moscow.

“I think that the Trump administration is slow when it comes to Russia. They have a blind spot on Russia I still can’t figure out,” Graham said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”

Well, Lindsey, I’d say you must have a blind spot and are a little slow when it comes to recognizing a few things about the Trump administration’s relationship with Russia.

Gross (Intentional?) negligence, not blindness.

Jeff Sessions Just Confessed His Negligence on Russia

The attorney general is aware of the threat Moscow poses to American elections — he just hasn’t done anything about it.

As to a specific answer to Sasse’s question — that is, what has the department done or is planning to do to confront information operations threats from Russia in the future? Not a word.

Sasse returned to the point a few minutes later, and Sessions’s answer got even worse. Sasse asked: “Do you think the Department of Justice has a proactive role in looking at hardening our democratic process against foreign interference?”

Sessions responded that Sasse had made a “valuable point” and that if Sasse had any thoughts toward legislation, he was eager to hear them. But as to any proactive role on the Justice Department’s part, Sessions made only the following remarkable admission: “I am not sure we have a specific review underway at this point in time.”

You read that right. According to the attorney general, the Justice Department is not even reviewing the specific question of what policy or bureaucratic changes might be appropriate in establishing an active role for the department concerning the most basic defense of democracy.

Here you are, Senator. Maybe this will help you to understand that ‘blind spot’.

Is Graham being sarcastic, ironic, or deceptive? He knows better than most why Trump is sucking up to Russia.

When it comes to the present maladministration, the GOP has more, and larger, blind spots than a buttoned-up Sherman tank.

That’s only one blind spot. Others: The maladministration is color blind–it can’t see black, brown or yellow. It is blind to pollution and poison. It can’t see people who are not rich. And on and on and on.

Speaking of blind spots, you and the rest of the treasonous GOP Congress have an extremely large one when it comes to a certain small-fingered moron.

Does that mean that the president is not following the law? Didnt congress pass this and the president sign off on the additional sanctions? Is the president allowed to ignore bills signed into law by congress? Answer=YES if you are republican.
