Im no puppet. Not a puppet. Youre the puppet.
The unedited defensiveness of his tone and manner was clear. It was like confronting a 3 year old about a broken lamp.

(5,810 posts)A sizeable majority of Republicans still think he is the best thing since sliced bread. His approval ratings are not taking a permanent hit even when he puts children in cages. Republican members of Congress are not lifting a finger to stop his worst actions or even limit them. We can be horrified, disgusted and hysterical with rage about everything he has done and is plotting to do with Putin. Until we get a unified approach (with input from a wide range of Americans) to reject what is happening, we have a very, very difficult (if not impossible) task before us.
I am not throwing up my hands in defeat. But just trying to be prepared for how hard it is to counter a professional Bull Sh*t artist like tRump and his master, Putin.

(70,490 posts)Trump just invited Putin to the White House even after this info was made public:
"Donald J. Trump was shown highly classified intelligence indicating that President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia had personally ordered complex cyberattacks to sway the 2016 American election."

(1,402 posts)I have always thought this.............why, oh why don't the ones that are in power do something about it...........now? All the Repugs know exactly what is behind Mueller's investigation and why it's being done and all the crimes and injustices DJT and his family have done and yet they just don't do a thing, they keep their mouths shut and go along with it!!! I believe they are truly afraid for their political careers and what DJT will do to them. Reps used to be a bunch of honorable people not any more!!

(11,885 posts)Putin has got trump working for him to destroy our country, our economy, our rule of law, our truth to power, and all while trump and the republicans watch putin do this to us, and refuse to put a stop to his undermining this country now. That's what's really tragic the republican party will not protect us now in our hour of need. How treasonous of them. They could stand up with the Democrats to stop this but won't. Why? Because they sold us out to putin to , and to remain in power from fixed elections going forward like putins done in russia. Elections will fail to be fair or protected from corruption. Our Democracy is falling as trump and putin now feeling more desperate to rush their agenda to make it complete , and now putin is coming here , and it was all putin demanding this , along with the Helsinki meeting to promote himself here as a fine guy like trump called this terrorist, and then lift sanctions. We'll hear some of his minions suggest this soon for him.
