    Translation: You are correct as usual, Max. I wasn't sure if that picture was Trump blowing Putin or not. Thanks for the update.

    No worries, Mac! Nice pic of Kathy and her dummy!

    what mean things did Trump say about Putin, Putin is probably the one person Trump doesn't say mean things about

    Its not like saying "I don't know why Russia wouldn't interfere" really fits or makes that much of a difference.

    He ranted through the whole press conference about the investigation being bad and the "server". Never said anything even stern about Russia / Putin.

    You would have to add "not" to a lot of other things he said.

    How To Spot a Fake TIME Cover

    http://time.com/4836933/donald-trump-fake-time-cover/

    There are more than 4,800 “real” covers of TIME magazine that have been designed over the past 94 years. That’s certainly a lot of history, but it may well be dwarfed by all of the “fake” TIME covers that have been produced over the years. Occasionally, these knockoff covers generate real news.

    The latest to do so is a fake one from March 1, 2009 featuring an image of President Donald Trump and headline calling his reality TV show “The Apprentice,” a “smash.” The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the fake cover has been displayed in at least four of President Trump’s golf clubs. In fact, there was no cover of TIME on March 1, 2009 and Trump has only been on one cover of TIME (Jan. 16, 1989) prior to running for president.

    Your childish characteristic of labeling anyone to the left of your far right position as a lib. It's lame, so not a problem. Most people here can see you for who you are all by themselves. All they have to do is read your posts to pick up the pattern.

    Meanwhile, back on topic and the Trump-Putin tryst meeting in Helsinki:

    Thanks for the info. The really interesting part for me was the fact that Mac thought it might actually be a real Time cover.

    Given that Trump gave away a ton for a soccer ball that translator is very safe. I am sure that Putin recorded it anyway.

    Link? The intelligence reports I've read said there was no evidence that a single vote was changed. I'm interested in how you came up with data they did not.

    Exactly. The message sent by the entirety of the comments during the press conference were consistent. Changing a word is a transparent joke and an insult to the intelligence of the American public.

    ""....or do you prefer to continue ignoring the faults of your hero, you know....the topic of this thread?"""

    They chose "ignoring the faults of your hero "...and the impact it has on America...

    Afterall, MAGA fits on their bumper sticker....and nothing else.

    Trump was warned multiple times by his own people and Republican leaders that it was a bad idea to give Putin a one-on-one meeting. Putin had everything to gain and Trump everything to lose. Sadly, that's the way it turned out. Now Trump looks even more like a buffoon and Putin's puppet.

    Yes, this is his damage control. He was obviously convinced that he had gone too far. His "clarification" is in conflict with far too many other things he has said and done, and it is therefore clearly a CYA move.

    Of course he will. You and I know that because you and I know that the large majority of Republicans in Congress don't have a patriotic bone in their body. Their personal partisan interests come before their nation's interests.

    I don't have to tell you that. Obviously you already know...

    I consider Time Magazine a very liberal publication

    But I guess you think this is all about you

    Wow. Is that what you think is going on here? That anyone is actually "winning a debate"? Thanks. That explains a lot about why you do what you do.

    I'm sure you do, but I still think it's funnier than hell that you actually assumed it was a real cover. Coming from anyone else, I'd be shocked.
