    Frank, maybe someone in your family likes you, but you are nothing but a narcissist and as annoying as bedbug.

    Anyone so devoted to Donald Trump that they would not condemn what he did during the instance we have been discussing...should hang his/her head in abject shame.

    But there are the sycophants who will not be shamed by this kind of thing...and I guess they have to strike out at others as a response.

    Sad!

    No, you're quite confused.

    We choose our representation democratically.

    The US is organized as a republic.

    When you go to the polls to vote, you aren't exercising a republic - that doesn't even make sense as a sentence.

    Why? What did he do that was wrong other than suggest a possibility that Comey himself later on admitted?

    Now the only people left fighting for their mental case president are the lowest of the low , Sick mental people in the same realm as their leader which is the bottom of the barrel of a hate party, which makes then lower then low. The driving force of the hate party's attack on the countries people and values. There is no one more threatening to this country then these power haters from the right.

    Russia had serfdom for more than three centuries, which created very grim and repressive living conditions for the populace. To fool the people to live with the system, Russia always has shown very belligerent expansionist attitude. You see, when your country is in fear of foreign might, you forget your pain and gear up for defense.

    The communist regime declared openly that for communism to survive it was necessary to make the whole world communist. They have used force and trickery all along. Their hunger for expansion is so great, that they have no empathy for the masses of Syria being crushed cruelly. Under the guise of countering ISIS they support Assad. If Assad wins, they will have one more goon in their bag. Remember Bolsheviks conquered many of their neighbors, and their ruthless expansion in the eastern Europe after the second world war? If West, especially the U.S. were not so formidable, they would have the world on fire by now.

    It is possible that Russia will mellow down some day. But the day is far in the future. It will take a lot of defeats and pain before they start soul searching. Russian culture is corrupt and mean. It is the culture of the society that throws up leaders. Goons like Putin becoming the head of the nation is not possible in many countries. The lives of Russians is full of fear from every direction. Fear generates pride. Their high level pride is geared up for world conquest.

    Russia is the largest monstrous threat in the world. We should not let up on countering Russia. That is why we went into Vietnam and Korea. Only, that we for forgot to give due consideration to the natives; They were fighting for independence. Otherwise we would have won brilliantly. Democracy is the best form of government today.

    You wouldn't understand. But maybe some day a person like Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama will do the same thing...AND THEN YOU WILL UNDERSTAND IT COMPLETELY...

    ...and probably speak to it loudly.

    Sorry no I wouldn't. I could care less about innocuous mildly humorous statement made by any politician. Unlike the progressive left I listen to what people actually say before some jackass throws it in the spin machine.

    Mildly humorous. A major party candidate for the presidency of the United States suggesting what donald Trump suggested???

    Sure. If it had been Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama...you wouldn't be upset!

    What a laugh!

    With all do respect the only thing Trump suggested is that Russia might have already hacked Hilary's bit bleached server. Please note the use of the past tense in his statement. Yes, indeed, at this point you are becoming laughable.

    We wouldn't be screaming at all because whether Hillary said it, or Trump said it or Bernie it, It would still be an innocuous bit of humor indicative of not much Because ti was talking about something that had to have happened in the past.

    I didn't vote for Trump. That's just a fact. You say people are ignorant. Ok. Then Democrats are MORE ignorant because now we have direct evidence that our intel services violated the law, recording, unmasking, spreading and leaking private convos of Trump and his people talking to Russians. The focus in on the "Trump and his people talking to Russians" as if that constitutes a crime where no crime is detected. Merely talking to a foreign official is not a crime and I'd expect Trump and his people to prepare a proper foreign policy by talking to officials of countries we have dealings with. Everyone in Washington that's involved in foreign policy talks to officials of foreign countries and Russia qualifies as a foreign country that we have dealings with.

Small Hands and his cabinet are as slimy a group that you can find. Real scum bags. So I dam well hope they do tap in on these people who would sell out this country. They are just slime, lowlifes that care nothing about this country and only about what they can gain.

    If this is true, this is one of Obama's biggest national security failures of all time. This would be a MAJOR gross incompetency from an already horrible President Obama.
