Asked about Sanctions Against Putin, Trump says we need to "get on with our lives."

[kennetha]

This guy is living in a world of his own imagining. This is going to be a frightening couple of years. (He cannot possibly last all four at this rate.)

He also says disentangling from his business is a "very routine thing." No understanding whatsoever of the constitution. He is a man who is completely uneducable. He goes in thinking he knows everything already, so feels no need to be educated by anybody.

Bad, bad trait for a president to have.

[guillaumeb]

1. Do you remember when President Obama dismissed the idea of an investigation into torture

and other Bush Administration crimes by saying it was time to look forward?

Some of us do remember that.

[Ghost Dog]

2. Rendering him complicit in those crimes, yes.

[guillaumeb]

3. I would not say complicit. I would give him the benefit of the doubt and say he was trying to

demonstrate his willingness to reach across the aisle. And the GOP repaid him with 8 years of obstruction.

[kennetha]

4. your point being?

[guillaumeb]

5. I thought it was obvious.

The fact that President Obama did the same thing means either condemn both or none.

[kennetha]

6. Couldn't believe that is what you could possibly mean.

That is really, really... well a pretty awful hing to say about Obama. Are you a troll?

[guillaumeb]

9. Nice try. Or rather a weak attempt.

If you actually read my responses in this thread you might have a different opinion.

[denbot]

13. I think it was a good question

Are you?

[guillaumeb]

14. I think both of you are looking for a jury.

I made the point that President Obama also talked about looking ahead. if you have looked at my 8000 plus posts here I think it is obvious that my politics are quite left.

And anyone who reads everything I said in this thread should be able to come to the conclusion that this is not an attack on the current President.

[denbot]

15. After 15 years here, a threat of a jury worries me less than your opinions.

Nice try though.

[guillaumeb]

25. I was referring to your "are you a troll question".

A question that is unconnected to anything I said, but seems to me like an attempt to get someone to alert on what I said.

[sarah FAILIN]

7. the difference being Obama wasn't in on the torture

Comrade Trump benefitted from what he is trying to brush aside.

[Generator]

8. yeah and benefited bigly

and it's called treason and I don't want to be owned by Putin and..fill in some other reasons. Fuck Putin and Fuck Trump. Seeing him say this made me really mad again!

20. Donald Trump Wants Mean Girls Clinton And Obama To Leave That Nice Putin Alone

Donald Trump Wants Mean Girls Clinton And Obama To Leave That Nice Putin Alone

snip//

Donald Trump has just about had it with Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and, gosh, just about everyone, really, treating his bud Vladimir Putin so mean, and on Monday whined that Clinton was just being a mean old meaniepantsuit to the Russian oligarch. Trump came to the poor autocrat’s defense in an interview on Michael Savage’s radio show, explaining that it’s all just so (*snifF!*) UNFAIR how Clinton and Obama keep writing Mean Girls things about Vlad in their Burn Book:

“They insult him constantly — I mean, no wonder he can’t stand Obama and Hillary Clinton,” Mr. Trump said, calling the tensions a “very serious problem.”

“It is the worst situation that we’ve had with Russia since the end of the Cold War, by far,” he said.

trumpbutt calls it "a very serious problem" No putin doesn't have a hold on dumphuck

Pisses me off, too..

[sarah FAILIN]

22. me too

Sometimes I think the reps get in here to stir the pot and laugh.

[guillaumeb]

10. "Benefitted" is an opinion with no proof at this time.

Unless one assumes that the FBI Director is also a Russian agent.

[uponit7771]

27. False bar, he doesn't have to be a Russian agent to do damage to the US using Russian resources

[guillaumeb]

28. I will accept the modification, but

all the focus on what Assange, or Putin might have done ignores the real damage the GOP is still doing with their various schemes to suppress the vote and scrub voting lists of likely non-white voters.

Do I feel Comey was acting in a blatantly partisan manner? Of course. But his actions were consistent with the demonstrated actions of the GOP in this election. My view is that the current iteration of the GOP has no belief in a two party system.

[Cha]

16. Thank you, sarah, for explaining the obvious difference to him.

[marybourg]

11. No, I don't think it's the same thing at all.

President Obama decided to generously and strategically forbear the sins of another person, another political party. tRump is arrogantly dismissing his own sins and those of his own party.

Two very different things, in my view.

[guillaumeb]

12. But what he forgave were possible violations of law.

And by ignoring them, or allowing them to go without investigation, he emboldened the GOP to go even farther.

In my opinion.

[sarah FAILIN]

23. He was trying to heal the country as a whole

His election was hard on the future trumpets and he had the choice of pushing the country further apart or trying to pull it together. He chose to pull us together. You can't doubt him 8 years later. He made the right choice.

[guillaumeb]

26. He made the correct choice if

there had been a partner with whom one could negotiate. But by overlooking the many illegalities, is that not accepting the illegalities?

And as an Instructor of Constitutional Law, one would assume he had some small knowledge of illegalities as it related to the Constitution.

I don't want you to find out how far Putin's hand is up my ass.

21. Exactly.. although he hasn't tried to hide the hand is definitely there...
