    It is beyond comprehension that you would even considering saying this to anyone but yourself. Which at this point must be possible. The talking to yourself.

    The Lame Stream wanted to push Trump into calling Putin a liar and get the US into it with Russia. Don't forget they want Trump to fail at any cost.

    Their desperation like the Cult of Leftness is quite obvious.

    “I have confidence in both parties.”

    Heh... What a *****!

    You’re the president! You don’t get to sit on the fence. Be a man, and pick a side!

    And btw, Dan Coates didn't tell Trump he "thinks" it was Russia, he said it was Russia.

    Of course, we both know the answer to your questions is no, and no.

    Viewing the expected melt down, it seems to me there is a gaping hole in collective minds of the President's detractors.

    Thank goodness very few of them will ever be put in a position where they have to weigh big picture objectives against actions that could stand in the way of achieving them.

    I don't want my grandchildren living under a desk at school, responding to air raid drills, like I had to do when I was young.

    I.e., patriotic Republican office holders whose allegiance is to America, its dedicated public servants in its intelligence agencies, truth, and even the Trump Propaganda Ministry:
    The fanatical Trump bum kissers, in their paranoid delusion, are relentlessly expanding that "left!" that festers in their noggins as if it were the national debt that their Trump is bloating.

    Trump just changed his tune.. He must think all Americans are as stupid as he is.. and that they too have a pitifully short attention span.

    "In a tweet sent from Air Force One, Trump reiterated confidence in American intelligence officials, hours after he refused to say if he believes the U.S. intelligence community's conclusion that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. .."

    They just don't get it do they?

    Not publicly calling out Putin is simply being diplomatic and saying exactly what you said.

    Sure Trump could be a dick and embarrass him on the world stage but at what cost? Its better to let Russia know this is a non-issue and to move forward, we have nothing to gain from pushing this.

    Trump has already acknowledged what they did but frankly there is nothing we can do about it.

    The left would see us march off to war over this however and that's just idiotic.

    Thank God there are cooler heads running our nation.

    That was a tweet. It will be entertaining to see him try that in a live press conference or interview with someone other than Hannity.

    Throughout the course of my business career, I've had to do business with people I didn't like. I've had petty issues crop up that could harm my business and therefore the people who depended on me for an income.

    Sometimes you've got to move on. Wiser, but you've got to move on, because the big picture must always remain in the forefront.

    It's apparent the President's detractors can't imagine such a concept.

    And to think, they used to be such Doves, where Peace at any cost was the mission statement.

    They seem to forget that when Obama was getting all cozy with Iran how he never mentioned little facts like their daily prayer requires them to call for death to America.

    The hypocrisy here is just disgusting at a level I've never seen before.

    My second question is would you now, with the whole world watching, tell President Putin, would you denounce what happened in 2016 and would you warn him to never do it again?

    TRUMP: So let me just say that we have two thoughts. You have groups that are wondering why the FBI never took the server -- haven't they taken the server. Why was the FBI told to leave the office of the Democratic National Committee?

    I've been wondering that, I've been asking that for months and months and I've been tweeting it out and calling it out on social media. Where is the server? I want to know where is the server and what is the server saying?

    With that being said, all I can do is ask the question. My people came to me, Dan Coats came to me and some others, they said they think it's Russia. I have President Putin; he just said it's not Russia.

    I will say this: I don't see any reason why it would be. But I really do want to see the server......snip~

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...ce-with-russias-putin/?utm_term=.1da7b6a4c84f


    And.....now lets look at why Trump said what he did.


    "My second question is would you now, with the whole world watching, tell President Putin, would you denounce what happened in 2016 and would you warn him to never do it again?"


    Oh lookie there.....here is a Reuters Lame Stream Leftist trying to get Trump to callout Putin as a Liar. Denounce what happened. Then Warn Putin Next to him and Live Before the cameras. Never do that again.

    After Putin already denied that Russia interfered.

    Can you show us where in US History that a US President called an Adversary a Liar denounced him and then warned him.....while standing next to that adversary.

    Now back here in the states is one thing. But standing Next to the Putin. I don't think so.

    Oh and Trump knows Coates told him, Pompeo told him, Tom Cotton told him and Lindsey Graham told him that the Russians meddled.

    Also Trump said he didn't think it was just the Russians either. That there were others.

    Trump questioned whether it was the Russians at all.

    The question was a softball for any President who believed our intelligence services and wasn't in bed with Putin. Trump couldn't say a single tough word to Putin. Not one. Yet he openly trashes our allies.

    Yeah the leftness purposefully leaves out what the Lame Stream Leftist was trying to start. That mope wanted to start a confrontation and wanted Trump to humiliate Putin Right there before the cameras.

    Evidently the left thinks that would be the end of the confrontation.

    Moreover they still think they can use the lame excuse that the Russians meddled and that's why they lost the election. That is what they are hoping on.

    As a businessman, you would never do business with someone who attacked your company and continues to do so. Especially a company so much weaker than yours.

    Yet Trump already acknowledged the Russian meddling for over a year. And as mentioned, Trump also thinks it just not the Russians.

    How delusional to think the question was a softball. It was hardly a softball question.....it was direct affront to call out Putin as a Liar to denounce him and warm him. Live before the cameras.

    Not even one limpwristed Demo as President would ever do such a thing. Nor would any Repub. Not one.

    Now they think that question by a Lame Stream Leftist was a softball question. LMAO.

    What do you think that says about their comprehension capabilities? :laughing:

    Trump caved right into the massive Phallus of Putin's strong arming and you know it. He completely trashed the US's own intelligence community, a community he leads. He endorses the word of a dictator and tyrant over our own intelligence agencies.

    Putin rammed it balls deep and shot a wad right into the rear of the US president.

    Times are strange.

    Trump says a lot of stuff, then contradicts what he said with his true feelings. In the press conference YESTERDAY he said that he doesn't even know why Russia would be motivated to attack us. But please, tell me what he said 18 months ago and ignore the hundreds of times he said something that contradicted that.

    Um Trump has already sided with our intelligence agencies on multiple occasions.

    Did you forget that part or did you think he was lying when he claimed Russia meddled?

    Russia as been at odds with us geopolitical strategy forever. They are a kleptocracy of the highest order and are a batch of demagogues. Putin is a ruthless dictator and a scumbag.
