Senator: Trump colluded with Putin deliberately

https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2018/07/16/richard-blumenthal-trump-colluded-bts-tsr-vpx.cnn

Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) rips President Donald Trump for his "failure to fulfill his oath of office" following the inflamatory press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Right Wing taking points should be out this morning. I'm curious to see if they double down on the stupid crap Hannity said yesterday or come up with something new and exciting.
 
What would have been the ideal outcome from the Summit in the eyes of the detractors?

for Trump to throw the US intelligence services under the bus & to blame the US for Russia's ****ty aggressions & unacceptable behavior

oh, wait ..............

Yea, "oh wait".... exactly what I thought.

How about a deal on nonproliferation of nuclear weapons? How about a Syria resolution? How about some sort of agreement that didn't involve MAD?

Naw, y'all just wanted another talking point.

I think the public demanding of extradition of those indicted Russians, especially the GRU agents.

The discovery portion of the trial/s would be interesting.

here; here is your talking point ............ Trump said it; he owns it .........

Putin offered Mueller the chance to interrogate those people. IIRC

IF...the GRU could do the same with our intelligence personnel.

True, but IMO that's a lose lose for Mueller and the US public. Mueller declines and Trump declares team Mueller isn't interested in facts therefore it's a witch hunt, Mueller accepts and Moscow controls.

Trial discovery in the US would be much more transparent.
 
This could be a good thing. In America we have the right to face our accusers.

Why the strong defense of the Kremlin when our IC has the evidence?

That's true but, I doubt we'll see that or any of those 'discoveries'

Putin announcing he is permanently recalling his loyal agent Trump to Moscow, Trump resigns and vacates the office sending the plane home without him.

Trump didn't body slam Putin, pull a shoe lace from his waste and, and choke him. Anything less is uncivilized.

We're passed that stage, they have been indicted, now they can come over and face their accusers in a court of law. Mueller doesn't need to interview the GRU agents, he apparently has enough evidence to indict. Like Trump says you don't need a 'Perry Mason' type confession to try someone for a crime...

Nice try though... :peace
 
I don't think Trump's bending over for Putin is because of a Pee tape, it's got to be something worse. I have no idea what, but it's obvious Trump's base and the hypocritical religious right wouldn't care about Trump being a sexual deviant.

No, Putin has something on Trump that even most of his brainwashed cult base would abandon him over. There has to be some 'line' that if Trump crosses his base would say 'enough'. IDK, but it's obvious after this week of Trump's embarrassing and treacherous performance in Europe and his supporters are still defending and supporting him that a pee tape isn't enough to break the spell.

True dat,, which is why, IMO Mueller indicted these Rusaians knowing they'll never stand trial plus right before the Helsinki meeting, it's Team Mueller PR.

The TDS crowd engages in a Pavlovian rant about Trump no matter what he does but they have been unable to tell us why Russia is better off with Trump and a pro military, pro well armed America over Hillary with an anti military, disarmed population in place
