Remember when Trump recently announced a plan to create cybersecurity unit with Russia, of all entities? He's backed down on it.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news...ritics-flail-trump-russia-cyber-security-plan

Several Senators had this to say about the initial proposal:

[Lindsey] Graham had told NBC’s Meet the Press that working with Russia on cybersecurity was “not the dumbest idea I have ever heard but it’s pretty close,” saying that Trump’s apparent willingness to “forgive and forget” stiffened his resolve to pass legislation imposing sanctions on Russia.

“There has been no penalty,” McCain, who chairs the Senate armed services committee, told CBS’s Face the Nation. “Vladimir Putin ... got away with literally trying to change the outcome ... of our election.”

“Yes, it’s time to move forward. But there has to be a price to pay,” he added.

We have no quarrel with Russia or the Russian people. Problem is with Putin & his oppression, war crimes & interference in our elections 1/3

Partnering with Putin on a "Cyber Security Unit" is akin to partnering with Assad on a "Chemical Weapons Unit". 2/3

While reality & pragmatism requires that we engage Vladimir Putin, he will never be a trusted ally or a reliable constructive partner. 1/3

--Marco Rubio

Note that all three of those men were conservative Republicans.

It's time for our president to start acting like he's the president and stop trying to sell out our security to the Russians.

when the US has a POTUS that even thinks about such a dumbass idea, it's time for the POTUS to leave office

1. Say you will form a Cyber Security Unit
2. Watch your minions say it's the best thing ever
3. Cancel it
4. Sit back and laugh maniacally

Who would have thought 10 years ago, that The Republican Party would become afraid to criticize a US President over a Russian President :lamo
 
If Trump is personally slighted by anyone, he will go to his grave with a grudge against them. However, you can meddle with our elections and as long as you say some nice things about Trump, he will let bygones be bygones.
 
Yeah, dumbest idea ever.
 
Offering to join up with Putin to insure election result integrity, is a bit like the farmer giving the fox the key to the hen house. Trump did not think that one thru, other than to kiss Vlad's butt, it accomplished nothing but make trump look like a political novice.
 
Cheers to whoever managed to smuggle some sense into that thick skull.

So you approve of incarcerating someone who hasn't even been charged, much less convicted, of a crime.:roll:

Gitmo .............. MY, YOUR government has done it, and for a very loooooooong time ..................


many American citizens that were charged & wrongly convicted have been freed via new evidence & DNA

our 'justice' system isn't perfect but it is ripe for putting a 'commie' POTUS in prison, if Congress has any balls .................

There is no comparison between Gitmo and this. There is also no comparison between those wrongfully convicted and this. And we don't put people in prison for their political beliefs.:3oops:

there is NO difference

Gitmo is there because the US government claims of the political beliefs of those imprisoned there, most prisoners there imprisoned for over a decade without a single charge of a crime

one day in the future this type of facility will be for the average American that has beliefs different than what is deemed 'appropriate'

Oh, okay. I won't bother you with concepts such as civilian vs military or domestic vs foreign.:roll:

You may be right. Look what's already happening and at who's doing it: Violent or disruptive protests on college campuses in 2017 | Fox News
