1. Seriously, that response was only 2.58 minutes long?

It felt like forever. WTH is wrong with him?

[joshdawg]

2. The guy is a total jackass!

14. Worse.. cheato is an

elephant's ass.

31. Elfeogringo, the ugly-American. ( Vicente Fox' apt name for eltrumgf)

He represents the ugly-racist-bigoted face of America, and he wears it proudly. He knows nothing about well about anything really; his go to "tactic" to distract from his incompetence, unpreparedness--trash Obama. When President Obama travelled abroad he made us proud; his eloquence, poise and knowledge of any given topic was superior: he made it a point to be the representative of all of us ...this Gallo (rooster; cocky show off) it's just about him, and is still in campaign mode, farting rascist dog whistles between his nalgas...sorry for the image--he IS an embarrasment!

Right now, he's throwing red meat at his base...hate the black man; to almightyputin, he's setting the stage to lift sanctions, of course, he's just following orders. Question: does anyone out there really believe this is the first meeting between the two? There is a certain familiarity about their relationshilp. Clinton said It correctly trumpf "is a puppet" of kgbputin. It's sad really, Clinton would have made us proud, not just by the seamless stable transition of power; continuing and improving Obama's existing policies, policies that improved the lives of ALL Americans; inclusive representation of all; moving our country foward--she would be the face of OUR America. Americans would send the very best of us, putting our best foot forward, really for the world to see. Obama was the best of us--Clinton would have been no less. Y this Gallo (and this guy; his galloettes/repubs) is a malsombra (bad shadow, something evil, sinister) over and through our country, the world really.

Ps. Question(s): about confederate flag that was proudly displayed by trumps fans in Poland. Someone, somewhere in Poland had a very, very large grotesque hate flag, at home--just waiting for the day to proudly display it? Which ironically resembles the Nazi symbol. Did someone on airforce one .... ? Wouldn't that be blatant treason ? I'd like to see the purchase order, or receipt of purchase from your everyday kkkstore. Reporters/journalists, easy, right? Just track down manufacturer of confederate flag and kkkmemorobelia, can't be that many in the world.

15. He just kept repeating

the same phrases over and over again, meaningless time fillers complete with his signature weird hand gestures.

[olegramps]

30. It seems that Russia may indeed have compromising info on him.

I can find no reason for him to cast doubt on 17 United States intelligence agencies other than the fact that he was involved in immoral acts while in Russia during his so-called beauty pageant. His lewd behavior is a matter of fact lending creditability to the fact that he is not above exploitation of women for his lustful ego. The compromising actions of his entire entourage toward Russia is a matter of record leaving little to speculation. The only speculation that remains is when and under what circumstances will Russia to release the information to the public. I are convinced that they have him by the proverbial "balls" and have effectively neutered him and when he is of little use they will sacrifice him. This may not even take place during his presidency, but could be even more effective in future elections.

3. Well.. Silver Lining: just post this whenever someone says "lolz Russia is a nothingburger"

I'm tired of "there is no RussiaGate, this is just fake news made up by failing NYT and FNN!" trolls, so this should silence them for good, right?

[demmiblue]

4. That was, um, something.

[smirkymonkey]

5. You are soooooo jealous of Obama!

Aren't you? You stupid, fat, vulgar piece of shit!

[rzemanfl]

7. Fat and shit shaming in one response.

[tavernier]

11. Hard to put lipstick on a fat, vulgar, piece of shit.

It slides off too quickly. More honest to call it what it is.

[smirkymonkey]

18. Yep, I like to get it all in at once!

[Baitball Blogger]

6. Who knew that Trump would be the one to exploit the weapons of mass destruction

debacle?

All the past political decisions that have been made by the press and intelligence agencies that put money and/or politics ahead of truth got us to this point where a flim-flam man in office is exploiting everyone's pasts mistakes or poor judgment. I saw that video and just know that his 36% will fall for his gas-lighting.

The only thing we can do is stand by the press and intelligence agencies now that they have decided to speak truth again.

[CottonBear]

16. That jumped out at me immediately.

No one has any idea what he'll say next.

[Ligyron]

23. Including Trumpy himself.

[Billb93]

8. Owned

Trump's reply show one of three things: 1) He is owned by Putin or, 2) he is incompetent or, 3) he is dumb, or all three.

[CottonBear]

13. I'll go with all three. N/T

[3catwoman3]

25. What is, "All of...

...the above, Alex?"

[Nitram]

9. OMG this is embarassing. POTUS criticizing his predecessor for "doing nothing about

Russian interference" at the same time he casts doubt on whether Russia interfered. This ignorant putz has no class, no intelligence and no clues at all.

[PatSeg]

17. "I colluded with Russia

and that incompetent Obama didn't try to stop me!!!"

[Nitram]

20. Exactly. The guy is either demented or has dementia.

[malaise]

22. No No No

This is a quinella - he is demented and he has dementia

[PatSeg]

24. "I don't know,

I could have colluded with Russia. No one knows for sure." (More weird hand gestures, smirk, raised eyebrows)

[pangaia]

10. Russia is preparing to invade Estonia and Latvia.

Military on the borders "practicing anti-terrorist manouvers.

Shit,,,

[Nitram]

21. And Trump will bluster and bluff and do nothing at all. Or launch a nuke. We lose either way.

[pangaia]

32. I know several great classical musicians from both countries...

and I know ABOUT many, many others.....

scares me to death,,,

[CottonBear]

12. OMG. Total gas lighting aimed at his base.

The man next to him at the other lecturn cannot believe what he's hearing.

He just cannot stop talking about President Obama and Secretary Clinton. Heck, he even dissed W. (Although the only true statement that he made was that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.)

[bora13]

19. typical scumbag

trying to put all the blame on his predecessor
while he knows the real culprit was his campaign.

[redstateblues]

26. Trump is a coward- he's afraid of Putin

[spicysista]

27. Sad.

How did this guy beat out all the other repubs? I mean, no one could overcomb this mess? I think that they must secretly want the republican party dead...this man is their face. The elephant is no longer gray.....it's orange.
It's my prayer that we dems can come together against this most uncommon opponent. This man and his republican enablers are truly hurting our people, our international standing, and the very soul of this country.

[Enoki33]

28. There is the nagging question of why trump continually refuses

to admit what technical experts and the IC have confirmed beyond any reasonable doubt. Apart from the obvious personal economic reasons trump may have - and this is pure speculation -he could be held hostage by sheer fear of Putin or his surrogates publicly uttering the simple sentence 'Yes we hacked the election to help trump with his full knowledge and assistance'.

[anneboleyn]

35. Or EVER utter a word against Putin. He has repeatedly criticized the U.S. but never criticizes his

master Putin. It is so fucking obvious, and it's disgusting how idiots who would have been hysterical if Obama had done any one of these things -- yet they blather on that Trump is a "patriot" when he openly criticizes the country, his predecessors, and our intelligence agencies in front of foreign news and leaders.

[Juliusseizure]

29. Worth an Obama response

This issue threatens future hacking activities, election rigging, and democracy.

A blunt response from Obama condemning Trump for politicizing the issue and refusing to confirm the obvious is called for.
Or just any democrat in a leadership role.

Is the thinking that it will just draw attention or invite a fight with Trump? Good! Now is the opportune time to put him on the defensive. He's about to meet with Putin FFS. I don't get it.

Trump is a criminal and transparently so.

Somehow Obama should have disclosed hacking that Trump won't confirm?

Obama didn't want to disclose it from fear of appearing to interfere in the election. Trump won't even flatly admit there was interference.

Obama put Russian sanctions in place. Trump has wanted to drop them from day one.

Trump has obstructed efforts to prevent future hacking and may actively assist in future attempts with his attempts to collect voter data.

[oxbow]

33. He's really scared of losing his memory.

He repeated the same 4 or 5 phrases over and over. He's probably thinking he has the best memory right now, but what he can't see is that his mental faculties appear to be falling apart. Can any neurologists or cognitive scientists weigh in on this?

[VOX]

34. What a vile little man. Make that boy. Make that snowflake baby.

Obama...Obama...Obama... Boo-fucking-hoo, you worthless sack of orange shite.
