Trump's advisers expect him to raise the issue of election meddling with Putin at their summit in Finland, an administration official tells @Kevinliptakcnn. Trump's advisers want him to forcefully warn Putin against interfering in the 2018 midterms. (Note "expect" versus "want." )

1. I expected the repubs would have dealt

with him by now but that hasn't happened has it.

2. Please don't help me again

3. trump and the gop

are now putins puppets too. Especially trump and mitch mcConnell. They're complicit with undermining our Democracy for putin.

[gratuitous]

4. Yeah, right

Color me skeptical that that represents the true feelings of any of Trump's advisers. It's Ass Covering 101 for the book they want to write later. I'm not familiar with Marshall Cohen, but his tweet makes him look disingenuous at best, a sucker at worst.

10. They're well aware Turd's going to collect his sack of Roubles, and coordinate election theft 2018.

I'm also sick of the media saying "Trump doesn't believe Putin stole the election for him." Obvious BS. Trump participated in the theft on TV. Trump doesn't admit to it, but he clearly knows it and participated in it.

5. Bet they want it in front of cameras, too,

during secret meeting with Putin not of use to them.

6. I expect him to thank Putin for previous election meddling

and call for more

9. Make another trump/putin 'deal' for 2018 elections

trump has access to all sorts of information that putin would like to have - and be willing to share almost? anything. putin be glad to get, and almost certainly will meddle in US no matter what. Scary

8. He's such a man-baby he won't do it *just b/c* he was told to, even if he weren't a traitor already

He's so petulant his "advisers" can't influence him into anything sane that he doesn't already want to do, except maybe through trickery if he's particularly ignorant/indifferent on a subject. He's not indifferent to Putin though, so that doesn't apply here.

11. Blah blah blah

Meanwhile they are doing NOTHING to actually protect our votes.
