I think today is the most pathetic thing that has happened in this country's history. We witnessed a spineless US President on the world stage today.

note that gingrich didnt make it into possible treason, or anything else listed in the article. he just said it was a mistake, nothing more.

Don’t act like she was some victim that was unfairly treated. She had very advantage imaginable
"Supposedly saying?" Catch up. It's not supposed.

I’m new at this site, but, it’s obvious that it’s 90% drivel and nonsense and illogical! Tall Traveler, for one, has 7 MILLION reads! Must be a full-time Jobs for him to post here! SAD!

1- Russia interfered in our election - EVERYONE except F’ing Moron and Putin agrees
2- Trump is ambivalent - “Putin strongly denies - should I believe our FBI/CIA, 17 Intelligence Agencies.......or Putin?”
3- Trump is essentially saying: “Move on, forgetaboutit - we’re all people - can’t we all just get along?“
4- Trump won’t allow ANYTHING to be done to penalize Putin/Russia
5- It’s as obvious as a massive heart attack - Trump and Putin are BFF’s
6- worse than all of this is that the Repub Senators/House people just ignore the issues....”Benghazi Benghazi, Benghazi”
7- Hell, I hava a lotta $$, the tax cuts help me, it helps my company, and my stocks benefit due to stock buybacks thanx to F’ing Moron and Mnuchin

I would gladly illiminate the tax cuts etc. so as not to increase the deficit and force my kids to pay the $bill

I need a buncha scotch now

You are just ignoring that the Russians are guilty, and cherry picking info that you like.
Court cases have taken place on those indicted?

And I am kind of ignoring them because I am more focused on our people. They are doing what they do - and I am glad they got caught.

These people have been around for decades. Now that the Dems have lost all power, now they want to make something of it as though the new guy (Trump) is responsible.

Anyone who would support this sorry excuse for a president after the way he conducted himself today shouldn't bother to call themselves an American. This should outrage everyone, Republicans and Democrats alike! The yahoos on this thread still supporting him make me sick.

Newt is one of Trump's strongest cheerleaders, that text is significant. It is the overall narrative that is taking shape and it's looking like a wild fire, Thomas Friedman is not a flame thrower, for him to throw out the word treason is no small thing. A line was crossed today.

Here’s my question, let’s say that Russia/Putin did in fact hack into our system and gained access and was able to Trump elected. Let’s further assume Trump had nothing to do with it. Why wouldn’t Trump given the fact that he wants to put Americans first, want to get to the bottom of it? Trump has said he’s asked Putin twice and in TWO DIFFERENT WAYS if he had anything to do with it.


IF Trump was serious about putting America first , why wouldn’t he launch his own investigation into Russia had anything to do with it? Trump acts like he’s guilty blaming everyone else. With every tweet or when he’s asked he goes off , like a child who got caught with their hand in the cookie jar. He’s his own worst enemy here.
