The sanctions were worthless to start with and didn't come until late.

You could always live somewhere different.

Oh... wait... Maybe you can't any more...

Never mind.

It's time for Trumpkins to man or woman up and be patriots.

You either love America or you love Trump. Are you with us or against us?
The what in the heck is people like Jorge Ramos and his La Rasa and Mexico connection along with 12 million illegals, protesting and rioting against Trump supporters?

It would have been a different story if Trump had lost. Totally different, probably on both sides.

But I don't actually care if it had been Hillary who won and they worked to get her in.

I think we all need to be keenly aware that they are out, not just to pick candidates who will be softer on them sanction-wise, but they also want to divide our populace.

Just today, Hamilton 68 reported a massive surge in bot activity following the Parkland, FL shooting. The bots were out in full force putting out social media posts for both sides of the debate. You may ask "well what's wrong with that?"

What's wrong is that while, as Americans, two people could disagree on one topic we might be able to have a civilized discourse. These bots take those sides of the argument and they throw nasty rhetoric, race baiting, and lies into both sides of the argument thereby causing a civil discussion to escalate into anger and people becoming very polarized and entrenched.

Now, shame on us for falling for it, but we didn't know. I hope we know better now.

I apologize if this was already mentioned, but it seems like it might be significant:

"Despite Rosenstein's caveat, the indictment does detail communications between unnamed Trump campaign officials and the Russian defendants. The three campaign officials, identified only as campaign officials 1, 2 and 3, were involved in the Trump campaign's Florida operation, the indictment says. On at least three occasions, as detailed in the indictment, American personas created by the defendants wrote to the campaign officials, in some instances about rallies they were organizing. In one instance, a Russian persona wrote to one Florida campaign official identifying 13 "confirmed locations" where they would be holding rallies in the state and asked the campaign to provide "assistance in each location," according to the indictment. The indictment does not say whether the unnamed campaign officials ever responded to the Russian personas."

Well, it was already known that Trump was paying his clacks at rallies. In fact, he had some shills at a press conference after he was actually president, to ensure they'd laugh at his snide "humor."


Interesting about Roy Cohn! I didn't know that he espoused that idea, but it's clear from Trump that this is exactly what he does.

Rewriting facts to fit narrative in the head seems to be bigger than ever.
He gave up on it because the states would not let them look into it

That's absurd. We can't know yet what votes were "changed" or even what votes were influenced.
