Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Missouri, also was critical of the president's assertions.
"President Trumps statements today fly in the face of the consensus of the Intelligence Community, the Director of National Intelligence, the Special Counsel, and a bipartisan investigation by the Senate Intelligence Committee," McCaskill said in a statement. "I stand with my Republican colleagues who are calling out this unprecedented rebuke of our intelligence officers most of whom are veterans of the United States military. Todays actions will only embolden the enemies of our country and erode the support of our allies."
A spokeswoman for Josh Hawley, Missouri's attorney general and a leading GOP Senate candidate, struck a more supportive tone and brought up Trump's 2016 victory over Hillary Clinton, the Democratic former U.S. Secretary of State.
"President Trump won. Hillary lost," said Kelli Ford, Hawley's campaign spokeswoman. "It's time for Democrats and the media to move on, and the President should keep on being forceful with Russia."
Rep. Billy Long, R-Springfield, usually a staunch Trump supporter, said Monday evening it seemed to him that the president missed an opportunity to press Putin.

(90,762 posts)Whether a submissive or a dominant, regardless of heterosexual intercourse or homosexual intercourse, your position doesn't matter since - again - you can bottom from the top and top from the bottom.
I know for some that unless they're on top that means they're not in control but that's just their own insecurity talking - because top or bottom, it all depends on the role you're playing at the time.
Trump was submissive (as in:ready to conform to the authority or will of others; meekly obedient or passive) to Putin - but that's as far as I'd go with it.
