"Trump helped ISIS by leaking US intel secrets to Russia" ... its true and drives wingers nuts

The deafening silence you hear from Trumpers is mostly about ISIS, there's no real comeback on that other than to call it fake news but now that FAUX has reported it they can't even default to Hillary ... the excuse of the day is "it wasn't illegal".

They still support him because he is rich, white, male, hetero and Christian but this time he helped brown people and that's against the rules !!!

If any Dem did this, especially Hillary or the Great Darkness himself PBO, Paul Ryan would be at the WH this morning and personally throwing their luggage out onto the rose garden lawn.

and you are 100% correct. They are STILL blaming Hillary and Obama and STILL supporting anything drumpf says and does.

8. It's not fake news when McMaster denies details but not the core of the story.

McMaster carefully denied tRump told the Russians "sources, methods, and military operations" without denying that tRump gave the Russians a secret so secret that even allies didn't receive it.

He denied something that was not in the Washington Post report.

What is truly fake is to deny something that was never stated.

and Republicans have a long and Reaganesque history of proudly supporting terrorists in the Middle East with weapons, training, and our tax dollars so why stop now?

It's not like they're wasting our tax dollars on providing food and medicine to poor Americans. That would be shameful.

that the president has a right to declassify anything at any time. While correct, you've also caused a huge amount of damage - possibly irreparable- to the intelligence community of not only the US, but of our long-time allies as well.

And, they now love Russia and think it's good that Trump is trying to be friendly with them.

While Pence would get their agenda promoted and adapted, he just doesn't give Trump supporters the same warm-and-fuzzies like Trump.

In football terms, Pence is no quarterback.

15. When the President does it, it's not a "leak," it's policy.

A "leak" is an unauthorized sharing of information by an underling. From whence flows that authorization? You may have three guesses.
