Can you answer the question I asked, or are you going to ignore it, call me a liar for a couple weeks, then start at the beginning.

Where did the article say Trump worked or coordinated with Russia?  That's what you believe and continually argue. So tell me what I'm cherry picking and what I'm ignoring from that article that gives any suggestion Trump's campaign was coordinating with Russia?

I asked you this last time an article came up, and you ignored it.  Show me where I'm wrong.

"The op-ed would not have mentioned whether the FBI was investigating Donald Trump’s campaign workers or others close to him for links to the Russians’ interference in the election, a second source with knowledge of the request tells Newsweek."

I called my congressman to ask him to vote against repealing internet privacy. Did you?

There you go again, always trying to change the subject....Flagg is more interested in talking about posters and insulting them because he's weak on facts.

Conspiracy? His administration is currently under investigation. No conclusion has been made yet, but all things point to some sort of collusion with Russia. It's only getting worse and worse.

So either Obama spied on Trump, or Obama didn't do anything about it when Comey wanted to inform us about Trump. Which one is it?


Quit being disingenuous.  No one is claiming Obama spied on Trump. Trump's team may have been picked up in routine surveillance of foreign officials.  Nothing illegal or improper about that. Maybe the NSA passed around the audio as a goof, but even if they did, I couldn't care less.

Comey didn't want to inform us on Trump. Read. Comey wanted to inform us that Russia was actively working to impact our election by smearing Clinton. You repeatedly refuse to acknowledge this distinction. Pointing out you railed for years about Bush being behind 9/11 isn't an attack. It's showing how you go unhinged the moment a republican is elected and latch on to the first conspiracy thrown out there.

If there's any evidence of Trump or his team working with Russia, I want to know. And I want those people arrested, put on trial and convicted of Treason. But there's not any evidence for that. The best your team could do is come up with a claim of pissing on a bed that Obama himself dismissed as outrageous.

There's a difference between being a skeptic and someone who will believe anything about someone they dislike. You clearly fall into the latter, and all your diversions and interpretations of others opinions doesn't change that.

Comey tried to alert the public of Russia's intentions in July, but Obama shot it down.

The article clearly states:

But many in the room didn’t like the idea, and White House officials thought the announcement should be a coordinated message backed by multiple agencies, the source says. “An op-ed doesn’t have the same stature. It comes from one person.”

But you're welcome to build on this for partisan talking points I guess. Still amounts to jack shit. The Russia/Trump thing isn't going away, it's only going to get worse. And now it looks like Nunes was up to no good as well. Republicans COULD be doing something about this, but most are hacks and will defend party over country.

But hey, great news. Trump has repealed Obama's environmental policies, so we can shit all over our country/planet more than ever. Not only can we let toxic waste go into our streams, but we can destroy the air we breath too. He's also expected to repeal internet privacy rules put in place by Obama as well. You guys should be so proud!

Obama stopped Comey. He didn't coordinate a joint release. Nothing partisan about it. If they thought or had evidence Trump or his delegates were working with Russia, you can bet your ass someone would have spoken up. Clinton would have his balls if he sabotaged her.

But keep believing there is anything to this. You were convinced Bush was behind 9/11 too with all your unsubstantiated claims as well. How did that turn out for you?

Your disdain for Trump is valid. Your belief in a Putin coordinated conspiracy is just looney tunes.

This is hysterical.  Podesta demands they cease and desist making up things about his involvement with Russia.  Yet every fringe wackjob in the DNC has been doing this to Trump for months.  Still no evidence, no credible claims, just an idiot in a James Brown wig mumbling about impeachment and avoiding any outlet that would cause her to deviate from the prepared marks her aide created for her.  And the idiot Schiff trying to win an award for best fiction writer. 

Plenty of Republicans call Trump out for his retarded twittering and bullshit.  Why doesn't the left ever condemn its own?  How can idiots like Schiff, Pelosi and Waters be taken serious as legislative leaders?

#3050 Re: The Garden » US Politics Thread » 477 weeks ago

The whole thing is a massive embarrassment for Trump and Ryan. I wasn't exactly thrilled with this plan, but at least it would have gotten something on the table for the Senate to improve. The tea party is and always has been fucking stupid and I was hoping they'd go away after Cruz lost the nomination.

But Trump is right about Democrats being the ones responsible when premiums spike again next year and more insurers leave the exchange.  People also forget it took Democrats over a year to come up with the ACA, because they too couldn't unite their party behind their first attempts.

Hopefully the parties come together to come up with something better. Or the Democrats can follow ^ and continue to be a bunch of screaming children. Spiked premiums aren't going to help the Democrats, especially under Pelosi, win the midterms.

Hopefully they get tax reform moving and follow up quickly with immigration reform. I'm hoping Trump and co lead a push to primary all the freedom caucus retards. We already have one party screaming like a toddler, we don't need that in the GOP as well.
