He's found his phone again!

It never gets old to see the so called leader of the free world acting like a little boy who has been called a stupid poo-face.

I have been in America on Halloween. There is nothing more American than handing out candy.

You can see how this going to play though (some senators have already started).

Sod the leaks, sod the content. We've got to go after the leakers - it's all politically motivated and dangerous. They need to be hounded out/arrested. It'll be cover for a push for a purge.

Haha, trying to change the narrative by saying Obama was too soft on Russia :lol:

Reminds me of this hilarious comment from Spicy yesterday:
https://youtu.be/be4-srnD5Lk?t=2864
The irony of this entire situation is that the President has been incredibly tough on Russia

Lolwut? :lol:

And they still have those nutters on video calls at the press briefings I see, with clearly agenda-driven questions which totally ignore the big topic of the day - they're like brief interludes between questions on Russia to allow Spicy to get some additional propaganda out there.

Like when the FBI Director publicly reopened Hillary's email investigation shortly before the election which led to a huge shift in the polls and helped Trump get elected? Emails which turned out to be nothing? While saying nothing about the Russia stuff which was known at the time? Like that kind of interference? :fp: :lol:

These Easy D tweets are as confusing as f*ck, is it fake news or are they reporting intelligence stuff. His rants are so incoherent!

It is actually very simple.

If the report says mean things about Trump (or his people): FAKE NEWS. Bad!

If the report says very bad things about Trump’s Russian involvement: FAKE NEWS. SECURITY ISSUES. Sad!

If the report says anything positive about Trump (or his people): Fox News. The best!

Ahh see. You've blown it now be trying to be Trump. He values unwavering loyality (i.e. brown nosing) not trying to usurp or outperform him.

You're fired!

So this whole Russia thing looks well dodgy now. I'm not talking about the hacking allegations, but the contact with Russia during the campaign. Flynn quite clearly had contact in December in person and it is frankly unbelievable that policy was not discussed. You could argue that a month before inauguration you would expect there to be contact, but the rules/law forbids it.

It at least warrants an audit of communications from the Trump team during the campaign up to inauguration.

How does the potential state sanctioned hacking of the DNC not go hand in hand with Flynn undermining the incumbent government and the supposedly continuous contact between the Trump campaign and Russian officials?

It's impossible to separate these three scandals, it's all one single scandal that has likely resulted in an at least partially compromised White House.

Well I'm speaking from the position of having seen no evidence of state sanctioned hacking, but having clear photographic evidence of Flynn sat next to Putin.

EDIT: What's the second scandal? I see Flynn and the contact between the Trump campaign and Russia as one and the same.
