Schiff warns of Russian attack on US mainland, as Day 2 of Trump's Senate impeachment trial conclude

Schiff warns of Russian attack on US mainland, as Day 2 of Trump'''s Senate impeachment trial concludes | Fox News


Time for a bit of levity in this impeachment show. Schifty needs a straightjacket. This guy is too much. :lamo "The Russians are about to attack!!! Let's remove our Commander-in-Chief!" Even if he didn't actually say that, but suggested it; he's a clown.

In a country where our citizens should be protected, Schiff would be in a mental ward for the insane. He makes Joe McCarthy look like a mild mannered truth teller.

Because he hasn't said one single word in front of the US Senate that wasn't the truth. It's not only the US Senate judging Adam Schiff and his truth, it's the whole country. And, it's not just the Senate and the entire country that's judging every word said by Adam Schiff, it's the entire world. Don't you presume that if Adam Schiff has uttered a single untruth or propaganda that someone, anyone in the universe, wouldn't have picked it out and made it into a giant story? No one in the Senate has called him a liar. No one in the media has called him a liar. No American that I know of has claimed he lied. Not one international news agency has claimed that he embellished facts or wasn't truthful.

So, yes. I do believe Adam Schiff.

Adam Schiff is a contemporary Joe McCarthy who will ruin people's lives and reputations if given half a chance. At least McCarthy was trying to fight Communism, the greatest international scourge at the time, but Adam Schiff is fighting against what? The results of a legally held US election? Claiming Russia is going to attack the US? That Trump should not be allowed to participate in the November election because he "cheats"?

Isn't it time for people to just stop for a moment and ask themselves just what's going on? They're tying up the country at a very important period because of a phone call? Where no crime was committed??

The left has blood in their eyes, stirred up to a fever pitch over a minor phone call with a country whose relevance is way down the list of important Allies. It seems it really is that easy to get people, even in an advanced nation ike America, to get worked up over nothing. Hats, phone calls, and different opinions are triggering violence and frequently death. Time to take a deep breath, chill, and begin dealing with real issues which effect all Americans..

That's funny. I didn't hear him say that the Russians are going to attack us on our "mainland". At what point in the clip can I find those words?

Did you hear him say "So we don't have to fight Russia over here"? Over here, on the US mainland, is where he was speaking. Where else could "here" mean?

Name anyone who can site anything he said wasn't factual? We've heard hours and hours and days of continual facts and testimonies. Be specific here. Name one thing you can claim was a lie.

And you feel that claiming Russia is going to attack America, and Donald Trump's removal from the November Ballot, will be a move in that direction, huh?

In the context of trying to sway our elections with hacks and propaganda, Russia has been "attacking America," non-stop, for quite some time now. I think the OP has been purposely confused by the radical right-wing media. They're usual tactic is to place a shrill, attention-grabbing statement in the headline of an article that never gets substantiated in the body of the article. They know their audience is lazy and gullible. I think that's what going on here with his claim/link.

Not sure what you mean by "Donald Trump's removal from the November Ballot" but I suspect you've been tricked into repeating something that sounds more hysterical than it actually is.

So, when you ask if Trump's removal is a "move in the direction" of "TRUTH, honor and dignity being restored as American virtues" - my unequivocal and resounding answer is:

YES!!

:peace

Yes, I hear him say that. Now tell me when he said that Russia was going to "attack us on our mainland".

He didn't say that. He said it as a preventative measure, not a certainty.

"So we don't have to fight Russia over here"

It was linked. Did you not watch the video?

This is true. Which explains why President Obama was rather unconcerned about it in 2016.
Until of course Trump won.
Then it suddenly became a national crisis.

Why did Obama sit back with his thumb in his ass while Russia invaded Ukraine?

He did place additional sanctions on Russia. What did you want a bloody invasion?

So with your line of thinking I seems Trump has his thumb up his ass with North Korea and Iran? And he just pulled the plug on Syria.

Since Trump admires Putin do you think he would have done something if president at the time? I think you know the answer.

You should have stopped at the first 4 words. You are correct - he didn't say that. This entire thread is a lie.

He didn't say it the way you paraphrased it.

Your rewording is a lie!

He didn't say they would attack our mainland.

Headlines and actual quotes often don't match.

Nobody should have taken the ambiguous "attack us here" to specify "mainland" as a fact, but he likely meant that.

Do you deny he said "So we don't have to fight Russia over here?"

The postings have used those words. Ignore the sensationalist headlines.

I'm asking you to show me and everyone else who didn't hear it when he said or even warned that Russia was going to attack us on our mainland. You do understand the meaning of those words, I assume.

Yes, he purposely gave that impression without saying it.

He said "So we don't have to fight Russia over here". The smart people know that doesn't mean "Oh noes, we are about to get attacked by Russia on our mainland".
 
Do you also realize he very strongly implies that we are using the Ukraine to fight so we don't have to?

We give them weapons so they feel empowered, but we are enabling them to die. We should have never been a part of the Ukraine civil war.

Want to blame anyone? This started on president Obama's watch.

No, the stupid people went off on something he never said because they aren't smart enough to understand English words.

If I said "I'm glad we're fighting ISIS over there and not over here", you would take that to mean I was warning you of another 9/11 attack?

Yet he said "so we don't have to fight Russia over here."

Really nice to use them as cannon fodder.

So why did he say it?

Are you agreeing he is misrepresenting facts at a trial?
