    You know, just like his predecessor, the President is human, and after days and days of meetings, one misspoken word in contrast to everything else he said at the same time, does not change anything. The transcripts from the press conference confirm this fact.

    Having listened to the conference live, I can say I didn't catch the mistake. I was taken by how he confronted Putin, and his comments about how Putin reacted. In fact, given the liberal press was predicting the President wouldn't bring up the election issue, I thought what he was saying was great.

    I think it is extremely unlikely people who are ideologically outside the President's views would ever believe anything he says, especially when it's typically always filtered by a media operating in partnership with his detractors.

    Great catch. Note that no one called Obama a traitor for ordering the police/intel community to bend over for Putin/Russia.

    MoJo, unlike the MSM frequently really will speak truth to power. It was a 2 part story. There is s link to part one from your link.

    Filtered by media again? Is the media filter built right into his mouth?

    Yet trump said he believes the intel community. If they’re lying why doesn’t he hire their heads?

    He would probably hire the heads if hiring them was not a package deal.

    so says the trump follower, who sides with a man that jails and kills his political oppenents, seized property, has made war with his neighbors, and shot down a commercial jet as well as backed a dictator that gassed his own people.

    go move to russia and a first hand look.

    You were looking to be outraged and you found what you were looking for.

    Outside of the bubble, people understand the importance and success of this trip.

    They wouldn’t do that

    Our relationship with Russia has NEVER been worse thanks to many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity and now, the Rigged Witch Hunt!

    You sir/ma'am/alphabet are coming off looking (I will choose a nice word) rather silly. Your statements are outlandish and it appears to be driven by pure unadulterated hatred for our President. At some point in time the clowns in the DNC need to figure they are just hurting themselves by their childish actions. Grow ****ing up. As it stands now, all the republicans need to do is stop all campaigning and just run a montage of the wildassed democrats screeching about Trump on a full dozen or more topics every night for a month before the election.
    You guys are peeing down your own leg and a few same democrats are trying to tell you that but logic has never been a strong point among the alt-lefties.

    We very likely meddle more than anyone, and now if other countries follow Mueller's lead, a whole bunch of Americans will face indictments in the nations where we interfere with their elections.

    Exercising skepticism of Trump's enemies is not siding with Putin. It's called being reasonable. You should try it some time.
