Trump says Russia supporting his reelection 'another misinformation campaign'

I think the dems/socialists should continue the "Russia,Russia,Russia" strategy. Yes, Russia got Trump elected. Couldn't have won without them. It would be better though, if they made commercial/ad demonstrating exactly how they did it. That would do 2 things: 1. Prove that Russia swung the election toward Trump, and 2. help the people that the Russians forced to vote for Trump.

When it gets a bit closer to the election, I've got at least three long pages of stuff by Trump over the past 3+ years.

I want to see him run on those things.

We can start with "Mexico will pay for the wall."

Not only is Mexico not paying for Trumps wall, but he's stealing funding from our military to build it.

At first it was construction projects like military barracks/clinics, now its our major weapons systems....

Trump Targets Major Weapons Projects To Fund Wall
 
So be the first to tell us how the results generated the last year have this country headed in the wrong direction?

I'm not playing your stupid game. I've been here long enough to know how you operate.
 
So tell us exactly what faults of the Republicans have hurt the nation?? Isn't it about time people like you talked about the issues rather than personality and politics of personal destruction?

1) Thanks for confirming my point that you can't see any faults in the Republicans affecting our nation.

2) A record-setting budget deficit.

3) Why do you sling insults whenever someone doesn't agree with you?

Obviously actual results and data don't resonate with you and yes, that is how I operate, confusing you with official data. Seems you don't want to discuss the issues or the data

Record setting deficits?? no, sorry those were Obama's in 2009-2010-2011-2012, want to try again?

Insults?? Yes, apparently it is insulting to ask you to discuss issues and noticed you haven't provided any faults of the Republicans that have hurt the nation. You seem to think that allowing people to keep more of what they earn hurts the nation, prove it?
 
Why is it so hard for you people to understand why Russia is supporting Trump?? They are getting exactly what they wanted, chaos and the 24/7 Trump bashing from the left here, unfounded charges, complaints, legal action, diversion from the reality of what Trump has actually done FOR the American people. If I were a Russian and agreed like Putin that the American Democracy and elections are corrupt, I too would be supporting a candidate that gets people to react as the left has for the past three years.

It isn’t hard for us to understand why the Russians supported Trump.

They’ve owned him since the 1990’s. He was always a convenient front man for their money laundering.
 
I see the Democrats getting out maneuvered as the more likely scenario. We have a minority party controlling almost everything but the house, and that's not by accident.

Some on the left expect the right wing to be the minority party after our next election.

They'll probably still be the minority party, but that doesn't mean that they won't control government.

Yes, it will. Some on the left are also hoping for sufficient left wing majority to accomplish every major and minor policy objective.

Are you serious? You really don't know? I respectfully suggest you check your sources, sir. Something like those linked below.

It's not insulting to ask questions. However, it's dishonest, disingenuous and dishonorable to insult anyone who disagrees with you even though facts are supplied proving you wrong. That's fine, I can take it as well as others. Yours is just juvenile schoolyard name-calling and insults. You do more harm to your own reputation than you'll ever do to mine.

US Deficit by Year Compared to GDP, Debt, and Events

Current US Federal Budget Deficit: Causes, Effects
The U.S. federal budget deficit for fiscal year 2020 is $1.08 trillion. FY 2020 covers October 1, 2019, through September 30, 2020. The deficit occurs because the U.S. government spending of $4.79 trillion is higher than its revenue of $3.7 trillion.

The deficit is 10% greater than last year. The FY 2019 budget created a $984 billion deficit. Spending at $4.45 trillion was more than the estimated $3.46 trillion in revenue.

Trump says Russia supporting his reelection 'another misinformation campaign' - Reuters

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said on Twitter that the idea that Russia wants him to win re-election was “another misinformation campaign” launched by Democrats.

Trump’s tweet followed media reports that intelligence officials warned U.S. lawmakers last week that Russia was interfering in the 2020 campaign to help Trump.
========================================================
Russia help Trump sew discord in the U.S.? Who would even think of such a thing.

Trump is a walking dis-information campaign. If he says its "not true", then the overwhelming odds are that it is true. The problem with a guy that always lies is that you can start to see dependable truth in the counter-narrative. Pity the foo' that actually believes Trump anything.

He is a master of projection. You can count on anything he blames on others to be true of him. The only argument is whether his guilty is 8 or 10 times that of the projectee. Quite sad, actually.
 
Unfortunately true. I have not doubt that the Trump administration will go down in history as treasonous. That all who supported Trump and Russia against the United States military and intelligence services will forever be tainted as "traitors".

Unless they win the next election, because they'll write the history.
 
They'll try, but 2024 is an entirely new ballgame.

If we still have a democracy with fair elections in 2024 or have Putin style elections where the opponent accidentally falls out of a window and Putin gets 96% of the vote.
 
It isn’t hard for us to understand why the Russians supported Trump.

They’ve owned him since the 1990’s. He was always a convenient front man for their money laundering.

LOL, so they own now the results we have today?? Thank you then Russia for giving us Trump? What a dumbass statement and ideology you people have. You people buy a belief and stick to it, what a bunch of bull****

2107 19,918.9 +927.0
2018 20,897.8 +978.9
2019 21734.3 +836.5

Then there is this which Trump inherited and the comparison today. Anyone that claims the GDP growth now is similar to what Obama had is the true hack and totally has no credibility

Unemployment Rate 4.7% January 2017 vs. 3.6% today

Employed 152.2 million January 2017 to 157.9 million today so 6 million job growth from 2008 to 2017(146 million to 152 million) is celebrated but 6.7 million growth I the last two years isn't!! LOL

U-6 in January 2017 9.3% vs 6.9% today? Wow!! 2.4% better U-6 obviously meaningless to you

Part time for economic reasons, 5.7 million January 2017 vs. 4.2 million today? Looks to me that incredible job growth you claim was boosted by part time jobs

African American unemployment 8.0% vs. 6.0% today? That explains the surge in support from African Americans for Trump
 
If we still have a democracy with fair elections in 2024 or have Putin style elections where the opponent accidentally falls out of a window and Putin gets 96% of the vote.

If we don't it will be civil war. Start buying guns and learning how to use them. That's the main idea behind the Second Amendment: To fight tyranny.

Why aren't you posting the 2009-2010-2011-2012 deficits?? You called the Trump deficits record setting, that is a lie. In addition today's deficits are due to interest expense and entitlement spending. People keeping more of what they earn including you seems to bother you a lot, why? CBO makes predictions, Treasury reports results?

I am still waiting for you to explain what you expect out of a President because all I see from you are liberal talking points without data and actual support. Treasury provides official data, NOT CBO, BLS provides us data, NOT CBO.

It's in the data including the graph? Why are you not accepting that Trump's deficits are exceeding Obama's? Did you read the CBO report?

The fact you are posting with emotion and insults and ZERO facts should tell everyone one reading this who is the scumbag lying POS and who is posting factually.

No, you are focused on the disinformation campaign as you have no interest in debating policy, issues and results, only politics of personal destruction
 
Yes, it will. Some on the left are also hoping for sufficient left wing majority to accomplish every major and minor policy objective.

I don't see that happening quickly.

You called the Trump debt record debt, that is a lie, here is the data. Further the deficits today are due entirely to debt service and entitlement spending. People keeping more of what they earn makes the debt less relevant

... Trump didn't help sew discord. YOU and your fellows who bought the Trump/Russia collusion nonsense helped sew discord.

Also, apparently, you did it again...

US intelligence briefer appears to have overstated assessment of 2020 Russian interference - CNNPolitics
 
I do wonder how much of a kick Moscow gets out of this, knowing that despite their much smaller economy, population, and limited strategic options they can still manage to **** with us so easily.

If by "Us" you mean "Democrats and their supporters and Never-Trumpers" then I think they must enjoy it quite a bit. I mean, you guys make so they don't even need to try...
