1. To quote a not so wise person: "Sad!" nt

2. Trump will be forced to answer to that!

12. Really?

Since when.

Remembering our Republican heroes of the past. Richard Nixon standing up to Khrushchev.

Who would have thought that Nixon was such a titan - at least compared to the current occupant of the White House.

3. Good thing Bob Mueller won't accept that self-serving shit

And he is VERY likely sitting on tons of evidence that would contradict this notion.

4. Yes, I bet Bob Mueller is following this with great interest!

7. +1.

Even if Trump fires Mueller, this investigation isn't going away. Didn't go away when he fired Comey.

5. As 38% nod in approval. Sickening.

6. so he believes putin over our intelligence agencies

[emulatorloo]

9. Putin owns him. So he has to believe Putin or else.

They both know Russia interfered because they were both involved in it.

10. Yeah...

...my guess is any requests for info from Mueller to the intelligence agencies is being met with "turn out the lights and lock up when you''re finished."

8. "Trump said he accepted statements from Putin"

[Doodley]

11. This was like a small schoolboy meeting the headmaster. Of course the schoolboy

will not argue with the headmaster.

13. This was a foregone conclusion.

Putin was never going to admit Russia's involvement in hacking our elections. Why should he? Trump doesn't admit it either because he can't allow that to become evidence that could be used against him. Trump can't let Russia be instrumental in getting him elected because then he becomes the loser, the illegitimate president without power or prestige, and without that image Trump is nothing more than the stupid, petty, grasping, bully he's always been.

14. Well I'd be damned. We could have ended this whole Russian investigation a long time ago..

all we needed was Trump to tell us Putin said he didn't do it. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. smh and lol.

15. Did we expect anything less?

If you did, go get help from the psychiatrists

[Vinca]

16. Then they kissed and Pootie asked for his compounds back?

17. I hope our intelligence agencies are playing both of them for fools.
