You actually couldn't make this up! Congress is the guilty party for investigating, but the Russian undermining of US democracy is only to be expected! Is that not an extraordinary statement for anyone to make, let alone a US President?

Innocent men don't behave like this.
 
In Trumps world, even when Putin is guilty, it's still somebody else's fault. He has a remarkable way of protecting Putin from accountability -- much like he does himself.

I think a lot of what drives Trump to defend Russia at all costs is knowing that a large portion of his real estate clientele are Russian nationals, and upsetting Putin might put that cash cow in danger, so he defends even the most egregious of his crimes. He puts his own interest above those of the US, which makes him a traitor to the presidency.

The Russian security services are well known for keeping detailed files on high rolling foreign nationals like Trump, including all his real estate deals & probable money laundering with Russia & Deutsche Bank. Putin has more than he needs to blackmail Trump, which likely explains why he is so chummy with Putin & so blatantly hands off with Russia.
 
Trump is nothing more than a coward; a ****ing coward .........

I have no doubt that Putin probable knows everything about Trump, but if he had knowledge of Trump being involved in a money laundering operation, he'd have long ago leaked it to the US media. There's way more to gain for Putin by exposing a US president as being a fraud, than there is for him getting relief from sanctions he knows will be slapped back on, once a Democrat is in office again.

Putin doesn't need anything along those lines anyways. Trump is already his bitch boy without any need of blackmail, or anything along those lines. It's public knowledge that Trump wants desperately to get involved in Russian real estate, and he thinks he can get there by kissing Russia's ass. Not only that, Trump has the most enfeebled mind of any public servant in recorded history, which makes him easy for cunning dictators like Putin to manipulate him.

Interesingly, to hear his fans tell it, Tough guy Trump has restored respect to 'murica worldwide. You can't make his kind of delusional crap up!

Very interesting way to look at Trump's motivation to be Putin's bitchboy: greed not fear.

Trump has a history of paying off on shakedowns, too. A Stormy past.

U.S. Image Suffers as Publics Around World Question Trump’s Leadership
America still wins praise for its people, culture and civil liberties

Although he has only been in office a few months, Donald Trump’s presidency has had a major impact on how the world sees the United States. Trump and many of his key policies are broadly unpopular around the globe, and ratings for the U.S. have declined steeply in many nations. According to a new Pew Research Center survey spanning 37 nations, a median of just 22% has confidence in Trump to do the right thing when it comes to international affairs. This stands in contrast to the final years of Barack Obama’s presidency, when a median of 64% expressed confidence in Trump’s predecessor to direct America’s role in the world.

Bold: Yes and no. You never get rid of the King when his son is an even bigger prick. Putin would know better than any American what would be the results of Russians tanking a sitting US president. The kind of outfall from that would be a rallying cry.

It was Napoleon who said "never interrupt your enemy when he is in the process of making a fatal mistake."

Putin simply isn't interrupting. He's probably rolling on the floor giggling like a school girl, but he sure as hell isn't intrrutping

No they are laughing at the treasonous trump supporters. Trump and trump supporters are undermining this country with every day and are enemies of America. Russia is laughing at the fact the president and his supporters are doing more damage to the US than Russia ever could.

Here we go with the usual failure to comprehend from the Trump haters...

Trump isn't "blaming Congress". Trump is showing how the Russians may have succeeded.

Say wut? No. I've been travelling overseas for business for almost 30 years. There is still respect and admiration for Americans. That respect and admiration does not extend to President Trump. In fact, he's the laughing stock of the world. Does he seriously not know this?

I'm no Trump fan at all, but what is Putin guilty of? If the prosecutor Mueller indicted internet trolls, but did not indict Putin, what on earth is he guilty of? Am I asking too much?

Oh, so, since Clinton wasn't indicted, then why does your side still cry about her?

First of all Mark, I'm not crying about HRC. I did not vote for her because I consider her to be a criminal of the highest order. Secondly, discussing a public person such as HRC, or mentioning a name, is not crying about anything. Thirdly, I hope you are capable of offering something of substance here. If you could actually answer the question I posed, to which you replied, I would be awesomely impressed.
 
"...I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic..."

Does anyone believe Trump is living up to his duty?

Putin is guily of much, but proving it is anoher matter. Even what you can prove, what good would an indicment of a foreign leader do? Also, were our justice department to make such a move, I would hope it would be for something more compelling than election interference. We shouldn't show our tacit approval by doing nothing though, which seems to be the current stance.
