Wise words sir/mam. It's who can give the best propaganda line and right now Kelly Anne Conway is the M Jordan of propaganda. Even a lefty like me wants one of those goofy hats now. Lol

He is toast before he even occupies the WH!

By 2020 anyone not named Trump will be a shoo in.
All we need is the midterms..... All we need is one branch. Then it's on like donkey Kong.....

I'll be 'aight'. Though, I wouldn't personally use that news conference as evidence of anything, as this is a big deal whether or not it is true. CNN has gone all in, and all parties necessarily are going to adjust their behavior in response.

They've been doing one wild allegation after another for the last 2 months now.

Kellyanne's shtick is wearing thin and not intimidating reporters like it used to.

If you want to wear the red hat, I see where you can get them with MAGA in Russian.

I would obviously love to believe this but seeing as I'm a "pics or it didn't happen" kind of person, I'm not holding my breath.

You know how the news loves to lie about politics.

You are so right. Strike one would be that very few Republicans REALLY wanted Trump in there in the first place, he was shoved down their throats. They say they are behind him now, because they have no choice. They would dump him in a heartbeat if the conditions were right.

Strike two would be the GOP wanting to keep control of things and also lock up 2020. They do not want the American people to turn against them in large enough numbers to put a Dem or Lib back in the WH. We all know Trump had help winning by the apathy of Democratic voters.........we thought we had it in the bag, so tons of us never showed up to vote. Now that we have had our butts kicked, that will never happen in 2020........EVERYONE will be voting then.

Things are going to get very interesting here in the near future.

Not so much. They're just refusing to play the lib game that would have them sacrifice their perceived interests because the libs have called them or their candidate a name.

First it was 'racist', then 'sexist, and now when that didn't work it's 'Russian agent'. The game is long over, and the only issue is that the libs keep upping the ante because they aren't getting the response that they are expecting from the people who have more or less stopped playing by their rules.

It's not that this sort of thing did not once work, as it did for decades, it's only that this particular game was relied on for too long and, to the consternation of the libs, it lost its effectiveness before they were ready for it to.

Think of it this way: if you really wanted your friends to flinch at the prospect of the opposition of accusing them of being supporters of a Russian agent, then perhaps the Hitler accusations aimed toward their candidates should have ceased decades ago.
