2. There is no other word for it

[BigmanPigman]

3. John Brennan just called him a treasonous leader.

We heard the worst possible words today...this is TREASON!

[spanone]

7. His TWEET

Link to tweet

Donald Trump’s press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of “high crimes & misdemeanors.” It was nothing short of treasonous. Not only were Trump’s comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???

[dalton99a]

8. +1

[BigmanPigman]

9. THANKS!

[eleny]

10. Amen! Thank you, John Brennan!

[NastyRiffraff]

13. John Brennan's statement is important

because as a former CIA director he has strong intel credentials; he knows whereof he speaks. He is accustomed to being very careful and wouldn't use the T-word if he didn't mean EXACTLY what he says.

[dalton99a]

15. +1

[smirkymonkey]

23. +1000

[spanone]

27. Yes he is...former CIA director knows putin all to well

[Doitnow]

19. Yes, Republican Patriots, are you going to allow Trump's selection to the Supreme Court????

[Fozzledick]

31. I have to disagree with your interpretion - he's not a "leader".

[Niagara]

4. Agreed!

[badhair77]

5. #TreasonSummit

No other words for it.

[Sneederbunk]

6. High crimes and misdemeanors on display.

[Solly Mack]

11. Do we have to allow him back into the country?

Because we shouldn't.

[bigbrother05]

16. I've said before that we should just give him AF1 as severance

then not let him return to US airspace. We already have replacements on order.

He can live in Scotland (if they'll have him) or any other place as long as it's outside of US territory.

Every minute that he is considered to be POTUS diminishes our stature throughout the world.

[Solly Mack]

18. Putin can stick him in Siberia.

Trump can play King of the Cold.

[meow2u3]

25. He can have his Trump Tower Siberia

in the coldest, most inhospitable part of Siberia--together with all the hungry tigers! BTA, even the tigers would puke him!

[Solly Mack]

26. Yeah - but they'd have to eat him first.

[gademocrat7]

12. Treasonous bastard

Chump is and has been Putin’s puppet.

[gordianot]

14. Include anyone who stays in this administration.

Traitors all!

[highplainsdem]

17. Agree. It made me feel physically ill to watch that display of treason.

[lancelyons]

20. The issue with Trump Supporters is that they dont view an attack on democrats or liberals

The issue with Trump Supporters is that they dont view an attack on democrats or liberals as an attack on America.

They believe that an attack on democrats, democratic party, liberals and their organizations is OK and not an attack on Americans.

This is how they have been programmed by the right wing media.

I am getting more and more convinced that this could escalate into a civil war.

This isnt Trump doing some bad things. its more of Trump / Trump supporters profound hate for liberals.

[Gothmog]

21. Trump is a traitor and is committing treason

[blue-wave]

22. +100 This

should be shouted from every mountain top over and over and over and over.


The time is now to prove we are a nation of laws.

[bucolic_frolic]

24. I bet he gave Putin

the right to dump Russian industrial waste over here ... that's what Pruitt's been up to with all this deregulation. That is worth hundreds of billions of rubles to industry

[AwareOneII]

28. Just wrote my Republican senator

And freedom caucus Trump loving congressman and told them the president just publicly committed treason. By condemning Mueller's recent indictments, Trump offered aid and comfort to our enemies. Ask them to condemn the president's remarks and begin procedures to remove him from office. They have to hear from all of us.

29. FUCKING DAMNED TRAITOR

30. BBC top headline: Trump sides with Russia against FBI at Helsinki summit

Trump sides with Russia against FBI at Helsinki summit

Link: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-44852812

(snip)

US President Donald Trump has defended Russia over claims of interference in the 2016 presidential election.

After face-to-face talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Mr Trump contradicted US intelligence agencies and said there had been no reason for Russia to meddle in the vote. Mr Putin reiterated that Russia had never interfered in US affairs. The two men held nearly two hours of closed-door talks in the Finnish capital Helsinki on Monday.

At a news conference after the summit, President Trump was asked if he believed his own intelligence agencies or the Russian president when it came to the allegations of meddling in the elections. "President Putin says it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it should be," he replied.

US intelligence agencies concluded in 2016 that Russia was behind an effort to tip the scale of the US election against Hillary Clinton, with a state-authorised campaign of cyber attacks and fake news stories planted on social media.

Evil incarante X2 - puppetmaster and treasonweasel puppet........

32. If the GOP does nothing it proves

that they are also traitors, and should be treated as such.

[BarbD]

34. John McCain, on his deathbed, is the only one.

The rest of the Republicans are either beholden to Russian money or too frightened by the "base".

[tinrobot]

33. TRE45ON !

[elmac]

35. Did DU ever firgure out which putin organization

took their site down during and after the election. Was the FBI notified? I'm thinking that putin put DU on his hit list to stop any talk, concerns, or rumors of cyber war.
