If it was the GOAL of Russia to create discord, disruption and chaos within the U.S. then, with all of the Committee Hearings, Investigations and Party hatred, they have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. They are laughing their asses off in Moscow. Get smart America!

After meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump told Reuters in an interview that he asked Putin whether or not Russia meddled in the US election.
"I said, 'Did you do it?' He said, 'No, I did not, absolutely not.' I then asked him a second time, in a totally different way. He said, 'Absolutely not.'"
Trump went on to acknowledge that "something happened."
"Look. Something happened and we have to find out what it is, because we can't allow a thing like that to happen to our election process," Trump said. "So something happened and we have to find out what it is."
About Putin, he said: "Somebody did say if he did do it, you wouldn't have found out about it. Which is a very interesting point."

Trump said he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin and that he had assured Trump that there was no interference in the campaign.
"I asked him again," Trump told reporters on a flight to Hanoi. "You can only ask so many times... He said he absolutely did not meddle in our election. He did not do what they are saying he did.
"I really believe that when he tells me that, he means it... I think he's very insulted, if you want to know the truth,"

At least when we do it it's based on actual stuff, not fantasy and horseshit.

Like we're all of a sudden falling for you suddenly seeming to school us on on Russia's sowing of discord and chaos in our country.
Get off it.
We know what's up. The discord they sowed was getting your 24/7 chaos administration into power.
You are the chaos.

(10,197 posts)With Trump handing over all our secrets to Putin (How much you want to bet Putins got the codes to our nukes?) and Putin and his Russian crime syndicate teaching Trump and his stooges how to manipulate and abuse us just like Putin does to Russian citizens.
They aren't laughing so much as rubbing their hands together in glee over Trump's and the GOP's traitorous behavior.
It's seventh heaven for Putin and his spies.
