NYT Reporter: Trump 'Essentially Sided' With Putin's 2017 Claim Russia Didn't Hack DNC Back to article

[blandsten]

Which is a surprise to absolutely nobody.

“‘Vladimir Putin told me,’ [Trump] said, ‘that it couldn’t have been the Russians who hacked into the DNC because they’re so good at cyber that they wouldn’t have been caught.’ And he said he was really impressed by that argument,” Sanger told CNN.

Contemplate the stupidity in that statement for just a second, would ya? Pure tRumpian logic, which is to say, pure bunk, no logic necessary.

Something is weird about today:

-Last night’s Guilliani shit show–f’n Wow
-Foxnews has a story up about the dirty dossier–I can’t understand why they keep bringing it up
-The Hill’s comment section is swarming with russian trolls this morning
-Next to nothing on MSM about the four Americans killed in Syria
-Cohen bribes
-Where is Mitch?
Maybe it is bc I got up earlier than usual today but it feels like something big is going on…

Once again, it is a case of Drumpf listening to and agreeing with the last person he spoke to.
Unfortunately, this time is was Putin’s.

I can see why Trump spent an entire business career stiffing vendors and contractors on their bills. On the front side of the negotiations he must have swallowed whole whatever stupid bullshit they fed him and it wasn’t until he saw the bills he realized he’d been snookered.

“No Donnie, EVERYONE pays that rate. Trust me. I wouldn’t lie to you.”

Thanks for the advice

Some times they don’t mind getting caught. That’s why they poison people with polonium.

[indyundecided]

That any American still supports this blustering moron is truly incredible.

So Russia is smarter than the US government, military, and intelligence agencies?

And all of the governments, militaries, and intelligence agencies of our Western Allies?

Nope.
