David Corn: "You should be so proud...What a big boy you are! Have a cookie."

David Corn Retweeted Donald J. Trump
You should be so proud that you got along with an autocratic thug who attacked your country, represses his citizens, invades a neighbor, and threatens journalists and opponents at home and board (who often end up dead). What a big boy you are! Have a cookie.

'AMID UPROAR, TRUMP SAYS HE MISSPOKE ON RUSSIA'

[wapo subheadline reads:]

'Trump's non-apology apologizing;
Retreat, then double down'

[the story following those headlines gets even more complicated]


[what an 'interesting' world we live in these days]

trump was told before the meeting with putin by Rosenstein when to indict these 12 russians, and trump chose before, why? Did he and putin conspire to do this , and now we heard trump claim putin put out an offer , when trump has known all along putin was behind all this , and for him to win, yet he's saying it was a good offer to let putin infiltrate an ongoing investigation putin was behind, and help him find out how they got all their information on his agents, and all their sources. Isn't that aiding and abetting an enemy openly by trump now? That's another act of treason, isn't it? why aren't any republicans attacking him doing just that?

is to implicate many of the republicans. They got into this as well, and now the man-child has them by the balls. Anyone who truly loves his/her country would never allow what is happening to happen, unless they are implicated as well, and like a good mafioso that the man-child is, he implicated everyone around him and now they are scared they are going to get caught and go to jail.

I don't believe their actions are dictated by "ideology", I believe they are hungry for power and they will do anything to get it. I have never believed in the professed "patriotism" of many republicans, when you talk too much about something (no collusion) you are trying to convince yourself and make the appearance to others that you truly love your country, and you really want to convince them, as well as convince yourself.

Not sure if anyone remembers when Obama was president and republicans started the stupidity that Obama was not patriotic because he did not wear a flag on his lapel, even one republican was caught on a news show criticizing and the host noticed he did not have the flag on his lapel, and of course the republican went into contortions trying to explain why he didn't have it, even blamed the wife. That is the "patriotism" of these con artists, there is none, they are there for the show, the adulation of their constituents (I hate to say it but, their base is made up of mostly ignorant people), the benefits they get for life, and their fill of their ego.

Anyway, the man-child has implicated all who surround him, and now they are scared to go against his will because they know that with the man-child, loyalty is a one way street, and the end of the road is him.

I don't know how much cheating the republicans will do this coming November, I expect a lot because they know the pubic is not happy, I don't know how much intervention will come from Putin, but I expect a lot, and this is by design. It is not a coincidence that the republicans fired and close the "cyber security" department, they don't want to prevent the Russians from "helping" them, plus they are up to their eyeballs kompromised, they know that jail is the next thing for them, but citizens need to guard themselves to make sure their rights are not raped, because that is what it is, the rape of rights.

Everyone needs to look at what has happened in other parts of the World, understand that the USA IS NOT immune to corruption, dictatorships, subtle invasions (Russians slowly taking jobs and positions, like Butina), and slowly brainwashing people to follow them. These crooks are not stupid, they just use stupid people like the man-child.

Anyway, this go long...until next time.

the answer for the McDonalds fetish.....it's the only food he trusts because he's afraid of being poisoned. Who poisons people? Putin. So Dump has been afraid of retribution from Russian for a long time, way before the White House. He is into Russians big time, and knows he is in mortal danger.

To scare folks who think it will be in their food. Maybe Trump isn't really a germaphobe but a poisonaphobe.
