The Trump Presidency
- Thread starter The Tariff King
- Start date
Our dear friend Peskov was on GMA this AM: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/krem...us-relations-worse-cold-war/story?id=46486662
Russian President Vladimir Putin's right-hand man said in an interview today on ABC's "Good Morning America" that current relations between Russia and the United States are "maybe even worse" than the Cold War.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov also told ABC News chief anchor George Stephanopoulos that the allegations of Russia's interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election are "fake news" and "slander."
"It has no evidence at all," he said of the claims.

I don't think that's unreasonable, but there's a hell of an assumption tucked in there at the end.
Sure, because of them, and others.
As for why I'm anti, it's best summed up briefly by saying that they have not enough influence (and a questionable will) to govern, but enough to scuttle broadly-agreed upon policy. Seems like you're familiar enough with my political leanings that I don't need to draw a map.

A year of so ago the word "corruption" was bandied about due to Russian fed WikiLeaks revelations that the (D) candidate received a debate question in advance.
I have watched debates since their revival in 1976 (where President Ford proclaimed Poland was not a USSR sattalite) right up until the last one where the (R) candidate called the (D) candidate a "nasty woman"
Cutting to the chase, not many questions are surprises. These aren't generally revealing in apolicy sense but more a snapshot into the candidates " temperament"
Back to corruption where one party benefit$ from office.
Now the winner enacts real live in real time authentic qui pro quo "corruption" as the state of the union

Going back a year I think the phrase I used was
"you wouldn't know corruption if it ran off with your wife"
Still holds

If Obama and/or the intel community wasn't surveilling the Trup team it would have been a dereliction of duty.
Why? Because they were clearly very connected to Russia.
I guess I missed the part where it was concluded that the Trump campaign was connected to Russia. But go on.
Surveillance on the opposing partys candidate by the sitting president would be one of the worst abuses of power in the history of this country.

My guess is that they were conducting surveillance on Manafort probably prior to him becoming Trump's campaign manager and that stumbled into the Trump camp. I frankly don't think there's much on either side here. Russia interfered in, but didn't swing, the election. The FBI followed Manafort (which may have led them in other directions beyond Manafort), but I'm not seeing the conspiracies either side seems to be seeing.
For this countries sake I hope this is the case.
Really? Where's the evidence?
Since you feel a need to run your smart ass mouth why don't you provide some evidence. What's that? You can't? Just what I thought.
