Trump blames everyone but Russia[W:206]

Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

Considering how much time the left has spent speculating (hoping) this investigation would prove Trump colluded with the Russians, it has been a massive fail for them.

I for one will wait until the end of Mueller's investigation before arriving at any conclusions. He doesn't really seem to be one for sharing his progress with the public.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

any sane person would have to wonder, WTF did anyone expect with a complete political novice like Trump in the ****ing White House? I mean really; the electorate actually went out and elected the most unqualified ****ing moron of ALL candidates possible. And that is besides the fact that Trump is a scam artist, a serial liar, an abuser of women, an adulterer, a sexual pervert, and those are just his good traits .........................

I mean ****ing come on people; when you take out the garbage, do you really want it coming back in your house? I always said Americans are ****ing stupid but they proved it beyond any doubt when they elected Private Bone Spurs to look over the nuclear button on his desk ...............

But it wasn't all Americans who elected Trump. It was mostly Americans who are registered Republicans who elected Trump. So if anyone is to blame for the Trump fiasco, it's Republican voters. He is a president who they put into office, and everything he does is rightfully going to be blamed on them.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

The primary influencing factor in this past election, from contested sources, were Hilary's emails. That swayed a lot of people teetering. And none of those were false. All true stuff. Russia, assuming it WAS the Russian government, didn't force Hillary to use an illegal server, and they didn't force the DNC to collude with mainstream media to kill Bernies campaign.

Does anyone listen to you or anyone else still talking about the emails? Go find someone who cares. This thread is about the president of the US blaming the FBI for the murders of seventeen people in FL. It couldn't possibly be the fault of the guy in police custody who confessed to doing it, could it?
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

But Russia stole the DNC’s emails.

The DNC was the victim of cyber espionage.

That they stole those emails (assuming they did) is not what caused the changes of heart...it was revealing the contents that did it, yes?

I tend to think the more frantic Trump's Twitter feed gets the warmer Mueller is getting. Based on the meltdown of the past 24 hours, seems like Mueller is following a very dangerous thread.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

I wonder how long this thread would have lasted if it had been about the last President. you hope the President dies and goes to hell? Why don't you die and go to hell you sicko?

You're not going to really make me pull up all the vile and disgusting things said about the previous president, are you? Your ilk attacked Obama like no other president was ever attacked before, and now you're crying when means things are said about the current president, who he himself said a lot of vile and nasty things about Obama when he was president (including the claim that he wasn't even born in the United States).

They'd sell out the entire United States if they thought it pissed off liberals. I hope we never reach that point.

Oh, right.

...and they'll ignore the harm it does themselves. By now, a number of those white Trump voters must be troubled to realize that Trump, the guy who said he was the only Republican who won't touch Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid, is indeed poised to cut Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid -- validated the warnings that liberals told them -- they would be hurt by Trump policies. But they'll still support Mr. Trump, because they believe that liberal elites look down on them and think they’re stupid. Hmm.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

Was gonna like your post until the last sentence. I know he's an irredeemable man who is literally incapable of taking personal responsibility, but be careful where you go with that.

That's fair. I thought about editing it out, but I was too late. I probably need to take a chill pill today. There was a shooting at my high school while I was attending it, so I'm admittedly (and I think justifiably) taking this personally.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

According to one of the people, Marat Mindiyarov, who actually was an employee of the Internet Research Agency, the Russian troll factory, “Your first feeling, when you ended up there, was that you were in some kind of factory that turned lying, telling untruths, into an industrial assembly line,” Mindiyarov said.

Your argument is that 'the Russians spread true information about Hillary, so what's the crime?' is quite false, based upon what we know. The Russians were spreading lies. One of them was the story that Clinton was behind a child-sex ring located in a Washington pizza parlor. It wasn't true but the idea was the Russians were throwing out so many false stories they couldn't be debunked before some people believed them. It was like playing Whack-Mole.

Are you suggesting that the contents of the emails that were released was falsified, untrue?
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

Bernie supporters were particular targets of the Russian influence campaign, per Bernie himself this morning on Meet the Press.

Then you didn't listen, Russian trolls clearly wanted the contest to be between Bernie and Trump.

1. Trump started out by saying that Obama was not born in the United States

2. ‘President Obama has been the most ignorant president in our history’

3. ‘He has been a disaster’

4. Trump called the president the ‘founder of ISIS’

5. ‘I believe I know far more about foreign policy than he knows’

6. Trump said the country’s generals were ‘reduced to rubble’ under Obama

7. He said Obama was ‘concerned I’m going to win’

8. He called Obamacare a ‘catastrophe’

9. Trump said he would have beaten the president in 2012
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

If the phone hacker was an associate of one Donald trump’s business rivals, we can assume that the motivation for the hack was to sabotage trump’s campaign. Therefore it should have been ignored.

Perfect. Then disregard the Steele dosier, as that guy had a documented dislike of Trump.

Sigh. If the info is true, what matters the source?

Right? Isn't that the democratic line currently being touted?
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

So you would support a foreign entity, at the behest of the dem candidate, hacking into either trumps or the rnc servers and releasing that info as long as it was true? Some how I doubt you would be forgiving of that dem candidate.

I wouldn't support it, but the info gained would be no less valuable.

The first rule of authoritarians is that laws don't apply to the leader. Get with the program. It helped Trump and that makes it a good thing. Putin is a good man too Trump told me so.

And that's only on the campaign trail. Trump has been regularly attacking Obama since 2011, and still does to this very day.

He even called him a racist: https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/253581368087437312?lang=en

Ironic, isn't it? The king race baiter himself accusing others of being racist.

The information in the Steele Dossier was not stolen though, they were acquired through genuine sources.

The emails on the other hand, were stolen.

Do you approve of someone’s private emails being stolen and released without context?

Thread seemed to be about Russian collusion between trump and Russia. Did you read the title and the OP.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

Twenty students and six adults -- were shot and killed at the Sandy Hook Elementary School, was the president of that time to blame? why did that president not do something about banning guns? Given a pass because he was not republican?
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

Releasing stolen private information is part of that crime.

Yep. But it doesn't change the fact that it shone a light on actual electoral corruption within the democrat party.
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

you under estimate the seething hatred Republicans/Conservatives have of Liberals/Democrats. Once you fully understand how much conservatives despise liberals, you'll understand why Trump was even elected in the first place, and why most Republican voters will NEVER abandon him no matter what.

Perhaps I do underestimate it. As anyone who has read my posts recently, especially since the Rob Porter thing, knows, I have given up on the president's supporters. I don't hate them. I certainly don't hate conservatives in general. But the president and his supporters are just too far gone for me. One of the reasons I joined DP was to gain a better understanding of what conservatives dislike about liberalism. Unfortunately, I haven't had as many thoughtful and productive dialogues about that as I would like.

you're just trolling with this comment, right?
 
Re: Trump blames everyone but Russia

Still doesn't matter. Why do you think that matters? As long as the information is true, it is true. No one contested the validity of the information.

Ok...let's try the consistency check. If we found out that Donald Trump has a camp of 13-15 year old girls under his house in Florida that he uses for sex but we find out because someone hacked his phone, do we vote against him or for him?

Nothing illegal was exposed in those DNC emails. They were legal private correspondence weaponized by the Russians and strategically used to help Trump win. Your analogy was a fail. The idea that you condone that behavior goes against all our values.
