What a bunch of crap
Aug 3, 2016 6:27AM PDT

There are so many outright lies in that article that I'm not even sure where to begin.

First, Trump did NOT 'invite' Russia to hack any systems.....that a liberal/Democrat accusation that works to their base and talking points, just as Harry Reid's accusation against Romney of murdering a woman and not filing taxes did. They are using the 'Russian connection' now as a reason Trump hasn't released his taxes, but the REAL Russian connection is in the Clinton Foundation and all the 'Clinton Cash' they have received from their Russian buddies.

Second, and probably the most important one, is that 'intellectuals and supposedly deep thinkers' such as BO and George Will, etc. are the ones who have systematically begun the destruction of this country and its history and standing in the world......and they've been proven to be wrong every single time, but that doesn't stop their talking points and rhetoric. They have no problem with lying publicly to the people, just as BO has done on the campaign trail once again just this past week.

There is plenty more to dispute in this article but I'll start with these two.

RE: "invite"

There is plenty more to dispute in your post but I'll start with this ONE.

‘Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing’.

You're correct, TheRUMP didn't "invite". He just 'hoped" they find the missing emails.

Why would a candidate for the POTUS "hope " the "enemy" (Russia) finds emails that MAY contain damaging information to the UNITED States of America?

Would YOU "hope" that "the enemy" receives info because you don't like a person/Fellow American?

Exactly which side are you on?


TheRUMP at ALL costs?


Let's see IF you stay ON TOPIC.

Please no mention of Romney, Harry Reid, Trump hasn't released his taxes, Clinton Foundation and all the 'Clinton Cash' , etc....

in case you're wondering the definition of "hope" is

to look forward to with desire and reasonable confidence.

to feel that something desired may happen:

So the HC REAL connection to Russia
Aug 3, 2016 9:45AM PDT

is 'off topic' for you?

As for Trump saying 'if you find those 33,000 missing emails'.....THIS administration AND the hilLAIRy campaign are the ones who said that the 'Russians' were probably involved in the hack of the DNC, AND her campaign, so it wasn't something Trump made up. BUT don't you think it's a little suspicious that IF Russia was involved in the recent hack, and left footprints to that effect, and hilLIARy's server was so totally wiped that even Comey said that 'although we couldn't find any evidence of a hack, that doesn't mean it didn't happen' (especially since Kerry himself said that many US government agencies HAVE been hacked already so he would assume HIS has, too). NOW....IF the Russians DID hack the server, and IF they are the ones who have leaked the information of the DNC hack to WikiLeaks, then it stands to reason that IF the server emails are in Russia's hands, and IF they contain ANY classified information (remember Comey has already found thousands of emails she never turned over and well over 2000 emails have ALREADY contained classified and top secret documents that will never be made public they are so secret), then it isn't TRUMP who is in trouble for 'national security' treasonous actions, it's HER. She has been saying for well over a year now that she never had classified information on her server in either direction/sent or received. How can you explain having a Secretary of State for four years and not ONCE has she dealt with classified information? Obviously SHE can't explain it...SHE can only continue to LIE about it, even on FoxNews on Sunday that got her four Pinnochios over Comey's testimony/statements vs HER version of what he said. http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/01/politics/washington-post-clinton-four-pinnochios-comey-emails/index.html

It's going to be an interesting couple of months, since WikiLeaks has already said they have thousands of emails that will be brought to light over the next few months because Assange's goal is to destroy H.Clinton......

RE:HER version of what he said.
Aug 3, 2016 10:57AM PDT

NO....

Let's talk about what HE said....


‘Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing’.

You have NO comment about that subject...Words from the mouth of TheRUMP.

So the HC REAL connection to Russia is 'off topic' for you?

In THIS thread YES.....

Start another thread....

You can't/won't defend YOUR candidates actions/words.....I know YOU support the military, you should be all over TheRUMP. Perhaps you are at Tea Party meetings...but it appears he isn't listening.

Trump didn't need defending......
Aug 3, 2016 1:19PM PDT

He responded to the Dems and this administrations 'assertions' that they believe the Russians hacked into the DNC and Clinton campaign emails and that they couldn't find evidence outright of who, if anyone, 'probably' hacked into the private server because whoever had wiped it clean had done a very thorough job of it. They had also accused Trump of having the Russians do that DNC hacking in order to hurt hilLIARy.....without any proof whatsoever. This is their usual direction, JP.....you don't have to prove anything you say, just toss that spaghetti onto the wall and hope something sticks. They did it repeatedly with Romney and are now doing it with Trump because the hilLIARy can't run on her own 'experience' and 'record' so she doesn't even try to.

I don't give a rats if you don't like 'side trips' in this thread, JP. SHE is the one with the REAL Russian connections and you can't stand that there is REAL proof about THAT.

The FACT is that even YOU posted that Trump 'invited' Russia to hack systems, and HE NEVER DID. Let's talk about THAT topic since YOU brought it to the table in the first place. What he inferred/implied (take your pick) that IF Russia HAD those emails, bring them out publicly. That's a totally different road you need to travel to carry on this conversation.
