Why should we trust the NSA who spies on all of us. I trust 90% of the FBI but the top has been shown to be corrupt and very political.
It's best we keep a close eye on our law enforcement. They don't like being accountable.

No one trusts Russia. All of a sudden we have fake outrage about Russia.

China is worse.

Not saying I agree with Trump, I detest that man. I am saying I dont Trust our intelligence agencies and neither does the left unless it is to trash Trump.
Did Russia hack our election? IMO NO. They may have influenced some people but they certainly did not hack an entire election. It is being blown completely out of proportion.
Hell if influencing voters is the sin of choice here we should be hanging Israel by the balls because AIPAC has a huge influence over American politics.

Um WOW! And yes he did, how could you miss it?? The DOJ told warned him and Trump ignored it.


Come on now!

Country's security and morale is in peril w/ him at the helm. That's about it. Up to Congress to reign the Stooge in--if they can.

This is going on in your mind Don. I personally think this place is awesome

I don't think these posters care or understand what is happening. Now we can add treasonous to the list of adjectives to describe them and the president they support. I knew the American Empire was in decline but for it to fall so quickly is quite astonishing.

It's also clear that he's not going to get away with it.

Oh, he might seem to be getting it all his way for a few months longer, but stay tuned.

America will win.

But we might have to do so w/o any assistance from tRump's party, who seem hellbent on supporting his treason.

Are you saying the democrats are trust worthy? The same party who in the last election told us Russia is not a threat?
The same party with such intellectual elites as Shiela Jackson Lee and Maxine Waters?

Thew same party who felt giving Uranium one ie the Russians control over a significant amount of our Uranium was acceptable?

That democrat party?
The same party that gave us the abortion known as the affordable care act?
The same party ignored its base in the last election?

The same party that lied to us about what caused Benghazi?
NO. I won't trust them any more than the GOP. 2 heads of the same beast.

Default If you believe that Putin and The Kremlin are more trustworthy than the American Intelligence community:

Then you're a Trumpling.

It's not complicated.

And he trusts Putin more? This is what I don't get.
