I have never been as ashamed of a president than I am today....to actually take the word of a dictator, enemy of this country and Free World and say those despicable comments.... I can't even believe that he threw the Intelligence Community..... the FBI... the Justice Department under bus..... and no only under bus but backed it up a couple of time for good measure!! If this ISN'T treason then I have no idea what would be unless he gave Putin our Nuclear Codes too.... and who know??? Maybe something else happen in closed doors.... but the main message is.... he should be forced to resign.... enough is enough..... this man is a danger.... and the longer he remain.... the worse damage he do..... By the way..... does anyone wish to run over to Moscow tonight??? I hear they are having big parties.... lots of vodka!

Did anyone else notice the nonsense about Putin sending Russian hackers to America for questioning? There was a condition, he wanted to be able to question Americans.
I am an Australian but even I know that it is long standing policy that Americans being served up to trial/questioning in another country is never going to happen.
If people swallow this as an example of Putin's good faith then God save the USA.

Trump endorses Putin's plan to allow Kremlin to interrogate U.S. officials who work with Mueller Trump endorses Putin’s plan to allow Kremlin to interrogate U.S. officials who work with Mueller What could possibly go wrong? Aaron Rupar Jul 16, 2018, 3:47 pm Before President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin took questions during their news conference Monday in Helsinki, Trump alluded to an “interesting idea” Putin shared with him about how the two countries might respond to Russia’s attack on American democracy — an attack that helped Trump get elected. “During today’s meeting, I addressed directly with President Putin the issue of Russian interference in our election,” Trump said. “[We] spent a great deal of time talking about it, and President Putin may very well want to address it, and very strongly, because he feels very strongly about it, and he has an interesting idea.” Putin’s “idea,” which he floated during a summit that took place less than 72 hours after special counsel Robert Mueller indicted 12 Kremlin military intelligence officers for hacking Democratic targets during the 2016 campaign, is to allow Russia to interrogate American law enforcement and intelligence officials — including, presumably, the intelligence officials who helped put together Mueller’s indictment, which includes rich details about the inner workings of Russian military intelligence. In exchange, as Putin outlined during the press conference, Russia would allow American investigators to be present while Russia questions the 12 military officials whom Mueller indicted for hacking. “This kind of effort should be a mutual one,” Putin said. “Then we would expect that the Americans would reciprocate and they would question officials including the officers of law enforcement and intelligence service of the United States whom we believe are — who have something to do with illegal actions on the territory of Russia, and we have to request the presence of our law enforcement.” more... thinkprogress.org/trump-endorses-putin-plan-kremlin-interrogate-american-intelligence-officials-401a98c2f31b/ |

It's sad that McCain as ill as he is has the will and courage to tell like it is and the rest of them stay quiet. I will let my reps know how I feel about it!!!

Following the money trail - Rachel Maddow teases out the legal situation underpinning the Russian campaign to influence the 2016 election. This is long and detailed but very enlightening. It is a segment titled Worst Case Scenario. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show |

And yet the Republicans persist!!!!! Two of them actually condemned him, but Flake and McCain don't really count any more. Some issued mealy mouthed statements about disagreeing with his words. Most said nothing and all still support him.
I do not think that there is a blue wave coming. The Democrat have never been able to deliver a cohesive platform and the only one on the horizon, (NO TRUMP) is not going to be enough. Trump supporters are solid, most Republicans will support him rather than sit out the election. The Republicans in the House are out working their asses off on local constituent issues, knowing that will earn loyalty,more than any national issue ever could. My district rep actually had me help pay for a flyer touting his "accomplishments" and offering his aid in any assistance I may need with dealing with federal agencies.
I have heard that there is a possibility of him being primaried ,but I don't see it.
Unless Mueller comes up with something, and if he is able to indict, and if CCongress decides to uphold the indictment,and finally if they decide to prosecute, (that's a lot of ifs) this guy is going to go the distance.

I heard one Republican A$$hat call in to a talk show and actually THANK Russia for interfering in the election, because it prevented Clinton from becoming President.. Sounds familiar? Like right here on this forum? Disgusting and amazing at the same time. Not sure I hold out much hope for this country either.

Boy, has Trump ever provided Mr. Mueller with ammunition, not only for collusion but for outright treason. His consistent defence of a foe of the USA is proof enough. He has publicly thrown his own country and intelligence community under the bus, and tried to do the same to the free press, NATO, G7, and most of his allied countries. Never a harsh word for Putin! He is Putin's puppet, and was so before ever elected.
There is definitely a lot more to this than meets the eye. I hope Mueller digs deep and finds the whole truth. Trump, sh*t-disturber and would-be despot, needs to be gone (preferably to jail). Won't hold my breath, though.
