The President (knowing about electing hacking) should not have met with Putin

Well I would like to bring up two points (since I watched the entire press conference found here):




1. Trump's comments about the Mueller investigation being damaging were focused on his belief it was being used to try to prove his campaign COLLUDED with the Russian interference, which has been undermining his Administration all this time. It was NOT about it being damaging to Russian American relations, or that the Russian's didn't do it.

2. However, even arguing that, it is my belief Trump SHOULD have been loud and clear in his condemnation of such activity, while at the same time hoping it would not affect future relations. Instead he deferred to Putin answering the question on that aspect...and Putin simply dodged it. Bad decision IMO even if Trump is trying to maintain better relations.

So would you say that the journalists or as I call them always now till they start doing their jobs again the so-called journalists spun this press conference to their preferred narrative unfairly and dishonestly? I did not watch this so I am not going to say but so often now they lie so nakedly, they are unfair with abandon and seemingly too a huge heap of pride to go with it, which really sucks for America.

Much of it is dishonest, but Trump did blunder IMO at 39:02 in the video when the AP journalist after pointing out Putin denied interference while US Intelligence confirms it, asked two simple questions:

1. "Who do you believe?'"

2. "Would you now, with the whole world watching, tell President Putin that you denounced what happened in 2016, and warn him to never do it again?"


Trump's answer to the first question was to deflect to the DNC server issue, and then saying "All I can do is ask the question" stating on one side Dan Coates is telling him one thing while Putin is assuring him it was not Russia. Then stating a very foolish thing, that he didn't see any reason why it would be (Russia), then deflected to the server issue again.

He never answered the second question...which was an answer in and of itself. Not one we would have hoped him to state. A bad decision on his part as I admitted in point 2 of the post you quoted.

Obama never sided with a foreign country against the U.S. with the world watching. I'm not pissed that he didn't take Putin to task as much as I'm pissed that he sided with Putin against his own country.

Not being dumb enough to fall for the democratic Russian "meddling" circus they are trying to force down our throats doesn't equate to siding against his own country. For starters the Russian "hackers" were not working for the state. They are a private company that anybody can hire, much like the company hired by Clinton to produce the fake dossier that the FBI refuses to provide details for in total contempt.

If they are so concerned with interfering in the election, why don't they talk about their own interference in the election? They admitted to cheating Sanders and rigging the primaries. This means that Hillary should not even have been on the ballot!! Was it the Russians or Seth Rich and wikileaks that alerted Americans to this shameful truth? Either way they did us a huge favor as we don't want someone in office with this level of dishonesty.

Stats clearly show America is indeed becoming great again, so the democrats kicking and screaming the entire way only proves without a doubt that they are hell bent on destroying America so they can remove the borders to make way for a tyrannical one world government. That's really what this is all about. If you can't see this try opening your eyes.
