And to prove it, he’s canceling cybersecurity. Nothing to worry about. Trump and Putin worked it out in private. We’ll just have to take Trump’s word for it.
We have a commander in chief who refuses to even recognize that we have an enemy, let alone marshal resources to defend against it. What a sad, sad state of affairs.
Mr. Putin tore down that (fire)wall.
The man is nothing if not persistent in his delusion. Does he really think he has any ability to lie on this issue again after his performance in Helsinki?
Why are we surprised!
Just like Charlotte, he did not believe or want to apologize, and the same for yesterday.
The countdown clock was running on how long it would take him to reverse his position, again. Not even 24-hours.
I did(n’t) expect anything different. Did you??
Next statement: “I misspoke. I intended to say ‘Not no.’”
The media hasn’t been calling his lies lies until the last few days, he’s still stuck with his habit of fabrication.
Donald Trump
And there’s been no president ever as tough as I have been on Russia.
I could laugh at that all day long. Then I remember that he believes that it’s true and I throw up a little in my mouth.
How long will this farce go on?
He lies and makes up stories all the time. It’s what he is, a fabulist. He lies about the weirdest stuff. The common denominator is that the lies and bullshit are all about him.
He has gone completely off his noodle.
This man needs to be impeached. Now.
And a direct violation of the first duty of a President as the oath of office makes clear.
Am I wrong, or is this a new (and very significant) development? Trump has long denied Russian cyberwar in 2016. Has he previously denied the current and ongoing Russian aggression? Either way, it’s reached the point where these statements will form part of any bill of impeachment or report by Mueller concluding that Trump is subservient to Russian interests and instructions. It’s obvious treason, in short. There is no getting around the word or the elements of that crime.
“The farce will always be with you.”
Trump meant to say Putin is no longer targeting Trump.
Putin has more than enough dirt on Trump so he can spend more time targeting the voters.
Lousy President. Lousy negotiator. Lousy liar. The trifecta!!
“I don’t see any reason why they would.”
“Look, I can’t agree that Russia is again helping me out in November. Why would I?”
Resolved: Anyone working for Trump is bereft of self respect and unwilling to hold themselves to a high standard.
