Last time it was the Russians who made me vote for him. I'll try and avoid the China peeps this time. Thanks for the heads up!

That was just you opting for an empty demagogue/criminal over a qualified and rational woman with experience. Being a party before country type means you were already in the bag, thus not a target.

I'll wager a guess and say you were already a hopeless partisan before Putin decided to undermine the 2016 election. Your pre-2014 posts are nothing but patriotic, very protective of the democratic process, right? You're not one of those people who defends Trump for things you lambasted Obama for, of course not. Perish the thought.

Gee, shocker.


Trump asked Xi to have China weigh in with its economic power to help him win re-election. Yet again, Trump asking for favors from foreign powers, in this case a hostile foreign dictator, to help himself personally. Makes you wonder what he offered to give in exchange, huh.
I guess we replace Russia with China and the Democrats get to have more investigations. I bet Adam Schiff has tons of evidence already.

Heh. The Chinese wouldn't piss on Trump's head if his hair was on fire, let alone help him win second term. Putin is a whole different story, judging from past practice.

I don't know about Schiff, but Bolton is claiming to have the goods. But why would we need to replace when it could just as easily be both? Makes sense given Trump's close relationship with Kim Jung Un.

They didn't make you vote for Trump. They just tried to convince people it was a great idea. Mere fact. I'm sure they had America's best interests at heart.

In retrospect, the 2016 election was about which party was going to vote to implode itself. It was more about our own internal anger than any foreign influences. And the Republicans lost bigly, it's just that many of them don't know it yet. Which is too bad, because I, along with many others, including their own, tried in good faith to warn them.

So what? Putin's meddling on behalf of Trump was pervasive & well documented. They were in it to win it, and, for their purposes, they did.

Should this thread just be re-titled "Bolton book outlines corruption and stupidity of Trump" or some such thing? Just so we have a catch all thread.

But but all the right-wingers tell me that it's the libs who are supposedly cozy with the CCP... so how can this be? Is this like Trump's "secret" bromance with the communist leader in NK?
Absolutely not. There are no secrets about Donnie Rump's love of fellating his idol, Putin. He has done it at least once on national TV.

Next up, he'll reach out to Rocket Man to team up with Barron and take care of the Cyber interference operation.

Remember the exploding Republican head when Obama made a relatively benign statement "I'll have more flexibility after the election"

My, how the bar has been lowered

With former cabinet members willing to speak out against Trumpity Dumpity. Wonder if the world leaders will also bad mouth him once he is out of office?
