When you think you have just about heard it all from President Trump. The ignoramus strikes again. Trump refused to endorse the US government's assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election, saying Russia would be responsible. Trump said that he had no reason to believe that Russia would want to be involved in American’s elections. Trump stood alongside Putin while Putin was denying his involved in America’s election, Trump touted his best friends denial. Trump remarked that he had every confidence in his people’s abilities but after standing next to Putin and hearing his strong denial he was sure that Putin was telling the truth. Trump's announcements amounted to an unparalleled refusal by a US president to believe his own intelligence agencies over the word of a foreign enemy and drew swift condemnation from across the partisan divide. I am surprise that the republicans had the guts to speak up against trump. Usually they sit on their dumb asses and praise the fool. Then Trump even got stupider if that’s possible, Trump also welcomed Putin's offer for Russian law enforcement officials to interrogate the Russian agents indicted by the special counsel Robert Mueller as incredible, this would give Russia oversight and influence in a US investigation into Russian state activities. Putin had also said the offer would be reciprocal. Oh how sweet it is to be comingling with a communist dictator and have Russia running our country. Trump is a traitor to America and its people and should be tried as a traitor and hung. Trump repeatedly compared US and Russian actions, saying he holds both the US and Russia responsible for the breakdown in the joint relationship and homed in on the US special counsel's probe, saying it was them, not Russian meddling which has kept the US and Russia apart. Trump will do anything to try and blame the special counsel for his crookedness ad illegal activities, hoping that if he turns the attention to Muller then his underhanded and treasonous activities with Russia will go unnoticed. The entire Intelligence community which is the CIA, NSA, FBI and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence concluded that Russia had interfered in the 2016 presidential campaign, in order to help elect Trump and hurt Hillary Clinton. Trumps own pick Dan Coats, the Director of National Intelligence warned on Friday that the warning signs are flaring regarding Russian cyber interference. Coats continued to explain the ongoing, persistent efforts to destabilize our democracy, he said we will continue to provide unvarnished and objective intelligence in support of our national security. House Speaker Paul Ryan, who seldom reprimands Trump's controversial statements, tells a different story today. Ryan said Russia is not our ally; There is no moral likeness between the United States and Russia, which remains hostile to our most basic values and ideals. Other republicans came out and said Trump made us look like a push over, John Brennan, the former CIA director and a career intelligence office said what Trump said was nothing less than treasonous. What Trump did today proved that he is in the pockets of Russian and its leader Putin. Both sides of the isle have come out and denounced what Trump said and did today, and have made statements which included it is the worse day for America and it was Trumps biggest mistake of his presidency. Trump has sided with our enemy, he has denounced America, he has put our national interests at risk, our safety, our very democracy. Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, declared, “No prior president has ever abased himself more abjectly before a tyrant.” Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker and Trump adviser, declared the news conference “the most serious mistake of his presidency.” Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee and current Senate candidate from Utah, called it “disgraceful and detrimental to our democratic principles.” This is not a republican or democrat issue it is an everybody issue and it is simply not right. No American President has ever aligned himself with an enemy. He knows nothing will happen to him, because the republicans are afraid of him, congress needs to continue the investigation by Muller. We need to put a check on this president and there needs action taken against him. I hope Americans finally see just what this man is. I hope come November people come out to vote and get rid of these gutless republicans so action can be taken against the president so we can save our democracy. In closing, the Russian attacks on our elections is an act of war and should be treated as so.
