"I object to US interfering with others' elections" is different from "I won't criticize or object to Russian interference with our elections because the US does it". You realize this, right?

We don't have time to clean up our own backyard. We're too busy putting out the daily dumpster fires that are Trump induced.

Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Lybia, Yemen, etc was not Trump induced. Our spying was not Trump induced. He is guilty of continuing the same failed actions but so would Hillary.

I expect that our executive would levy appropriately tempered but effective measures to discourage meddling in the future and issue a warning to the interfering party identifying additional repercussions should such activity continue, along with a directive that the US take countermeasures to prevent future interference and prosecution of any person(s) that assisted the Russians.

Today. I'm talking about today. I know we are at fault on a lot of fronts. That does not preclude us from doing something about Trump today. He is an embarrassment and a danger to citizens of this country by his very agreement to send our people to Putin for questioning. What president would do that? Why does it take a unanimous resolution of the Senate to NOT send our people to Russia. Trump is clearly out of his depth and off his rocker.

If Hillary is guilty of something, then let that come out. I have no problem with it.

The election win was legitimate and the Russians did not affect the outcome.

He is an embarrassment. Make that argument though. Not this stuff.

His cultists worship him for much the same reason.


"according to several people who attended the intelligence briefing"


"according to one of his closest aides who spoke on the condition of anonymity"


"According to nearly a dozen people who either attended the meeting with the president-elect or were later briefed on it"
