Every Republican politician that "looks the other way" and plays dumb about Russiagate - is in the "Party of Putin". They are putting party over country.

They are more worried about Trump attacking them and Trump's voters voting them out of office than they care about the country.

Paul Ryan is a perfect example of The Party of Putin. He smiles and changes the subject rather than standing up for the USA and democracy.

yes it is the party of Putin in the minds of liberal democrats who need an excuse to why they had such massive losses over the years. So their tactic, is now to make it look like the Republican Party is controlled by Putin so to tell voters they have to vote for the Democrats by default. Pretty sad.

Trump cares more about Putin than he cares about American Citizens. He never says a bad word about Putin but he attacks American Citizens regularly. Trump is the leader of "The Party of Putin".

That's funny coming from a supporter of a party that cares more about illegals than citizens and foreign countries more than America.

What gets me is that Trump himself has created the impression that he and the Republicans are the party of Putin. The Clinton deflection is not being intellectually honest simply because anyone who can hear or has closed captioning knows that Trump bragged about his relationship with Putin and asked Putin to hack into Clinton's emails.

Furthermore, how many Conservatives bragged about Putin or mentioned how Putin was a better leader than Obama? As I recall it was quite a number.

So, rather than running away from the Scarlet P, the Republicans should embrace Putin and Russia as they embraced them before the election and as they embrace them now.

Don't be shy. Say we're Putinangs and proud if it!

Putin doesn't control the U.S. Media or Wall Street.....both control our government.

Putin didn't make us go into endless wars and endless occupations and get in bad trade deals, have open borders and get us into this globalism and Putin doesn't control or made us get into this huge 20 trillion dollar debt.

so unless Democrats tell us what does exactly Putin controls in the U.S. then its just more of the hysteria since losing to Trump.

didn't democrats labeled W BUSH when he was President worse than other dictators in the world.


Under Obama, Democrats never view Putin as an enemy.....until Putin challenge Obama in the NYT piece a few years ago and it really turned bad after Hillary lost the election.

what's the obsession with the Putin? need another reason to keep the endless wars and endless occupations and globalism? LOL


You think Democrats are going to take control of all branches of government pounding the Putin hysteria? ....go at it but don't complain when democrats keep losing elections.

Seems Trump's "Party of Putin" cares most about illegals. He's willing to waste billions of US Taxpayer dollars on a wall, even though 2/3 of illegals enter via visas and arrive via airplanes. Just this week he increased the volume of new visa guest workers by 15,000. Some of these will overstay their visa. Basically, he's inviting more future illegals to enter the country. He's glad to have those 15,000 visa holders take jobs away from American citizens, and keep wages in the USA lower. Once some of their visas expire, some will stay and become illegal and they will continue to take jobs from Americans.

Hey - maybe many of those 15,000 visa holders will be Russians. Maybe he'll give special preference to the staffing company that Putin recommended. Then we'll have more Russia spies to help "The Party of Putin" win the next election.
