President Trump electifies CPAC crowd

Ok selling out our democracy? Be more specific, how is Trump doing that and what actions has he taken that concern you? Stop the fear mongering and be specific

Russia has violated treaties, been proven to have hacked us and you want trump to be buddy buddies with the brutal dictator.

Economically China is a threat to Russia just like they are with us. China has always been aligned with us as well holding quite a bit of our debt

They have an economic alliance! You cannot deny that fact. They hold a tiny amount of the debt, that does not matter.

Then why was the crowd so eagerly waving them, Albq?

The CROWD wasn't. A very few individuals in the crowd were and they too were either plants or people who didn't make the connection with Russia.

Let's see, shall I play this little game? Shall I post some examples of that which you ask for, only to have you turn around and deny every one of them with mental gymnastics that would impress Simone Biles? Hell, why not.

I think what was actually happening is not all conservatives are happy with trump, and are concerned about the stories of his connections with Russia, and were trolling him.

Prove it. I showed you the link and the pictures. You prove with documented citations that it was just "a very few individuals in the crowd."

Tiny amount? You don't have a clue

According to the Treasury, the largest foreign holder of U.S. debt is China, which owns more than $1.24 trillion in bills, notes, and bonds or about 30% of the over $4 trillion in Treasury bills, notes, and bonds held by foreign countries. In total, China owns about 10% of publicly held U.S. debt.

I'm looking at the same pictures and I'm seeing only a very few individuals. How many do you count?

Interesting how those big bad Russians scare the hell out of you. Do you think they know we can wipe them off the face of the earth too? What is wrong with people like you. Trump is a businessman so why are you so scared?

And the US holds a lot of China's debt. Why is that an issue?

That was no prank. That was a planned and organized hateful and unethical attempt to embarrass the President and it should be condemned by anybody with any sense of right and wrong. Nobody would have thought it funny if people had handed out Iranian flags or Cuban flags or Mexican flags or some such with Obama's name on them during his farewell speech. It would have been a malicious thing to do.

. . .One person who didn't give his name to the Washington Examiner said he was part of handing the flags out and was kicked out after shouting "fascist" while Trump spoke.

"We handed out some awesome Trump flags right here. Unfortunately, they were confiscated eventually and then I stood up while the president was speaking and called him a fascist," he said. "And, was escorted out and now I'm barred from the property. Good day overall, though." . . .​

They also have no idea of what we WANT Trump to do re Russia or anything else apparently. But they cheer and applaud or take advantage of a malicious act at CPAC. These people have no sense of ethics, fair play, right and wrong and any attempt at reasoned civility went out the door long ago.

They are ugly people who like many liberals here cannot debate trump with logic and can only pull pranks

But was just a dirty trick

There was a famous liberal prankster name Dick Tuck who hated Nixon and embarrassed the VP many times.

Once during a campaign speech called a whistlestop Nixon was giving a speech off the back of a train and tuck paid the engineer to start the train moving

There are many examples of this

Its childish and it shows how deep the intellectual void is in liberalism but in the end does no real harm

So the nationalist fuhrer held his speech among the faithful .. big deal. Now the flags...are the right really going to push the narrative that it was a "leftist plant"? LOL. Are you sure that you want to go that way, considering that means the security at this event was piss poor?
