Trump Pushing Big White House Changes as Russia Crisis Grows

Conservative said:
so tax cuts for the wealthy hurt you and your family? How? You want the US to fully fund NATO and yet you claim you are for security? Putting Russia first is what the left wants people to believe. How has Trump done that? Any idea how much of his holdings are in Russia? Why would Trump want an alliance with Russia, let's see if you can figure it out?

The German Trade deficit is only part of the problem, the strongest economy in Europe should be funding more than they do with NATO.

One more time you hate Trump and that is driving you and your ignorance of the issues. Stop being childish, you lost the election, support the President and give him a chance. Being vindictive is childish and dangerous

Tax cuts for the wealthy hurt the entire nation by starving it of revenue with no other redeeming factor. It is insanity to keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results. We have no idea what financial ties Trump has with Russia, thanks for reminding me. We do have statements made that indicate he is very involved with Russian money though. Again though if we want Germany to step up we must step down not ramp up. Redundancy is not the answer and it is not why Trump is talking about it. You are right though, I do hate Trump but that is not the point . If he was not behaving like a traitor I would not say he was. He behaves like a Manchurian candidate and I will call him on it when he does. I see our reputation in the world falling apart and wonder who will step in to take our place.....

LOL, so those evil rich people buried their extra money in a hole in the backyard? All you ever do is promote class warfare and ignore the results of your failed ideology. Of course you have no idea what holdings Trump has in Russia because you are incapable of doing research. You see what you want to see after 4 months in office and are unwilling to give him a chance because of pure hatred. That is a sickness and has no place in this country. You are every bit as bad as those on the right who hated Obama although those on the right were right when it came to results. Obama made Jimmy Carter look good but you see, you buy rhetoric and ignore results. You liked Obama therefore his results were ignored. That is a serious problem with the left

Even allowing for the way Trump insists on being different, this smacks of desperation. It's window dressing for a government in cover-up mode.

Let's put it this way, there's enough mention of lawyers in there to pretty much declare the administration are going to try to block the Moscowgate investigations

ugh....."_______gate" really annoys me.....Intellectually lazy.

Ooooh....Scary signs, and clean cut American's disagreeing with an administration, and not being violent....Wow....Seems quite American....:lamo

Funny how pissed off you all got, (get) at the protest of Obama, but have no problem with those doing the same with Trump, and indeed going further to violence....

I would suggest the image you see in the mirror are the Cons that can dish it out, but can not take it.

I will also point out that the Trump presidency is a train wreck of his own making that is bordering on (and soon could be) a Constitutional crisis of historic proportion. The Cons got their panties in a bunch about healthcare and stimulus spending (in during an incredibly deep recession) by a popularly elected President with an actual mandate.

The Dems are upset because Trump, who actually lost the popular vote (has no mandate -- though that is not the crime), actually has compromised (in repeated instances) our national security, amongst many other sins, known and to be known. That, my friend, is a horse of a different color.

May I point out that EVERY major US newspaper told us this man-child lacked the skills, experience and temperament for the job and warned the American people about elected him. The American people, being defiant and ignorant, did so anyway (again, not a majority) and now we are experiencing what we were warned about.

Yes, most of us had no fantasies that this guy as a wizard, he just was brilliant with the smoke and mirrors. He knew there was a market for snake oil.

BTW....most of us see the man behind the curtain and we are worried.

Your whole post here can be boiled down to one conclusion, and that is that you're worried alright, but, instead of the now 6 month temper tantrum, you libs feel entitled to the levers of power, and can not accept that an election was lost by democrats fair and square, so you have invented some melodrama conspiracy theory with no proof that is worthy of one of those $4.95 spy novels to read on the beach, just in time for summer....

You allowed an agenda driven, biased, and thoroughly corrupt "news" media to lead you by the nose down a path of anonymous sourcing, and downright made up stories, and believe them hook, line, and sinker...You (not you personally) praise leaks that have done actual damage to national security, and say "meh, no problem there" while taking the next sensational claim about Trump as an excuse to be classless, crass, insulting, and in some cases violent against those that don't agree with your own mob mentality to destroy opposition, or the country itself if you have to....

It is selfish in its very existence, this mindset, and corrosive to freedom....Those crying "Fascist" right now don't even see that they are employing fascist tactics against those who dare to disagree....This will only go so far before Americans will have had enough of this self entitled, sniveling, bull ****, and fight back....But, that's what you want anyway, right?

Nope. I don't have to and it isn't important to me. This ain't my first day, son. I'm not proving who I am to anyone on DP. My posts speak for themselves. My bona fides are public record on DP.

If I wanted to I could go back maybe a year ago and produce posts where you and I had amicable political discussions and you invited me to look you up the next time I was in South Carolina. Or you can look those posts up or anyone else on DP can look them up. I'm not doing it.

Hmmmm....Isn't it amazing that whenever some claim "independent" in here, their posting history seems to line up perfectly with liberal democrats? Just an observation brother....this is the internet, you could say anything, doesn't make it true.

Since you're playing 'lean police' with the lean 'independent' and calling a poster a liberal democrat, j-mac, have you noticed the same thing with independents on your side that post as conservative GOPs? Have you ever called them out ?

Yes, since you bring it up, however, I do notice more liberals that tend to hide their true affiliation under 'conservative' or 'independent' in hopes that they can somehow think themselves above the fray....When in truth their own posts give them away, and it is a stupid game they play....Really they are little more but internet trolls....

Feel free to find a sense of humor.

And don't expect me or anyone else to edit their style because of your likes and dislikes.


Have a nice day and don't forget to defend everything Trump

I'm an Independent. Despised both the crooked Hillary and the degenerate Trump. Voted for neither.

Both are schmucks, but in different ways. But Trump won so I'm stuck with that moron. I don't like him and as president, the Trump schmuck now gets my ire.

I don't really care what you do, I was just letting you know how I felt about the whole 'gate' this, and 'gate' that BS....NOT everything is a scandal worthy of comparison to Watergate.
