"I think the European Union is a foe," Trump says ahead of Putin meeting in Helsinki


Recommended Posts

While National Security Adviser John Bolton, according to a source, thought Trump’s remarks were ill-advised, he believed that walking them back would only add fuel to the outrage pyre and make the president look weak. But Chief of Staff John Kelly was irate. According to a source, he told Trump it would make things worse for him with Robert Mueller. He also exerted pressure to try to get the president to walk back his remarks. According to three sources familiar with the situation, Kelly called around to Republicans on Capitol Hill and gave them the go-ahead to speak out against Trump. (The White House did not respond to a request for comment.) Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan held televised press conferences to assert that Russia did meddle in the election.

So he misspoke and said he believes in US intelligence but did he misspeak when he said he talked to Putin and he said no?

 

Clearly you're wrongthinking too much and doublethinking too little.

He spelled collusion wrong. He fucking spelled collusion wrong and it's on camera.

Yo maybe he’s been saying “no colusion” this whole time. Like, “oh you’ve been investigating ‘collusion’ with Russia? Eeeeeeeeesh.”

This whole thread but this clip in particular

How the hell can you not like the collective defense part of NATO? It's the entire freaking point of the thing. Especially if you think the biggest issue with NATO is that no everyone is paying their fair share, wouldn't it be great to have this thing that requires everyone to help eachother out?
