Trump just said that Russia is no longer hacking into American democracy. But 16 intel agencies said they are still doing this hacking. Trumps own Director of National Intelligence Dan Coates testified under oath 3 weeks ago that the Russians are still doing it and the red blocking light is blinking as Russia ramps up in pr********n for the mid term e******n. And Trump is doing nothing to stop them.

Yesterday Trump told you he believes all 16 intel agencies in this country today he doesn’t. By saying Russia is no longer hacking. Helsinki he said he believed Puntin yesterday he gave the foolish comment as a double negative of (Could) or (Couldn’t) only Trump supporters buy into that stupidity.

This guy is a buffoon and has done nothing but shower Puntin with praise.

He also said he has been the toughest on Russia than any president in history. Trump has done nothing to stop Russia if anything he tried in his first week in office to drop Russian sanction. Trump supporters are the only ones that believe this guy.

President Trump is tougher on Russia in 18 months than Obama in eight years

Even though the left-wing media will never give him credit, President Trump has been far tougher on Russia than his predecessor, Barack Obama.

For starters, it was President Obama who, according to Reuters, was “caught on camera” saying to a Russian leader that he’ll have more flexibility after the e******n — not President Trump.

The fact is, President Trump has been quite tough on Russia.

So much so, the sanctions resemble a Russian nesting doll: one sanction of top of another, on top of another.

Just last April, the Trump administration imposed new sanctions on Russia — including strict sanctions on seven of Russia’s richest individuals and 17 top government officials for their interference in our e******ns.

The sanctions directly penalized President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle by prohibiting them from traveling to the United States ever again. He did this by opening a bank account in the West, preventing them from doing business with the West and prohibiting anyone else to do business on their behalf.

The sanctions were significant — among the toughest sanctions ever placed on individuals in a foreign country, with the exception of perhaps Iran and North Korea. Yet like many of Trump’s successes, it received minimal mainstream media coverage.

During his first month in office in January 2017, President Trump upheld strict sanctions to punish Russia for its unlawful 2014 annexation of Crimea. With those sanctions, the Trump administration punished more than three dozen individuals and organizations that were behind the invasion of Ukraine.

Even Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin had a hand in the actions, stating that there would be no easing of the sanctions until Russia meets its obligations under the 2015 Minsk agreement — the ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine.

In August 2017, Trump signed a bill slapping even more sanctions on Russia — this time specifically aimed at the country’s energy and defense industries. Congress made the legislation Trump-proof, meaning that no executive order could ever undo such sanctions; yet Trump signed it anyway.

In fact it was Trump — not Obama — who ordered the closure of Russian diplomatic properties in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and New York City that appeared to be a threat to American security.

It was also President Trump who shuttered the Russian consulate in Seattle.

To be sure, Obama kicked 35 Russian diplomats out of the country after suspected e******n meddling by Russia, but only after T***p w*n the 2016 e******n. It is questionable whether he would have done so had Hillary Clinton succeeded in being the victor.

Furthermore, it was President Trump who led the world in expelling Russian diplomats after the Russian government was suspected of carrying out a nerve agent attack in the United Kingdom against one of their former spies. President Trump moved swiftly to expel 60 Russian diplomats from U.S. soil, and other countries followed suit by expelling dozens as well.

In addition to stringent sanctions, President Trump has also called out Russia publicly.

During a landmark speech last year in Poland, Trump lambasted Russia for using oil to hold NATO’s Eastern European countries hostage. Trump underscored the dangers of those countries’ dependence on Russian oil deliveries to keep their people warm during the winter, leading to their inability to criticize Russia the rest of the year.

The Trump administration even offered to help identify alternative energy sources for the region. Trump’s remarks on European soil was the energy industry equivalent of Reagan’s “tear down that wall” speech.

Compare all of the above actions to Obama’s milquetoast policy on Russia and outright appeasement on issues such as the “red line” that Russia blew right past in Syria. Obama’s lackluster track record with Russia is in stark contrast to the Trump administration that has already, in its first 18 months, surpassed what Obama did over a total of eight years.

When do you people open you’re eyes to the most d********g piece of garbage that has been nothing but a pathological lying piece of garbage his whole life. You have no idea who Donald Trump is and you’re ignorance will allow that fat AH to continue to destroy this country.

The ignorance of Trump supporters blows my mind because you listen to nobody except Fox News and that fat d********g White House I***t.

Why don’t you do a little research and stop showing you’re ignorance. I wonder what you would say if that AH grabbed you’re daughters pussy.

We have been looking more and more like fools and i***ts to our neighbors and allies over the past few DECADES. Why? Because we've been SUCKERS!! The U.S. got more respect around the world years ago - well not respect, exactly, more like obscience (sp) because we were the world's piggy bank. Americans had enough for themselves and had no problems for the most part with the government handing out $$ and goods for a famine here, a flood there, or a hurricane over there. Americans also reached into theor own pockets to help our world neighbors. Our government also, in the late 1960s, thought it would be a great idea to bring indian students here and give them a medical education because medical care in India was appallingly almost non-existent. We all know how THAT worked out... As well as helping our European allies rebuild from the devastation of WWII. But then our government allowed big businesses to run from paying their fair share of U.S. taxes and labor by shipping all of our manufacturing jobs overseas over a few decades. In a way you couldn't blame the businesses. Labor was cheaper, manufacturing plants were cheaper to build and maintain. We also DIRECTLY assisted Japan in becoming a manufacturing giant by charging them no exchange rate for years on end and assisting them in building up their manufacturing base (anybody remember when the expression "made in japan" meant cheap crap?) But NOW due to bad trade and tax policies (not to mention our crushing social programs cost) the piggy bank is empty. So our allies and neighbors are pissed that U.S. citizens want to take care of themselves and our past dunderheaded politicians continued to hand out goodies around the world and carry most of the freight for the UN (hoping to maintain "U.S. prestige). Americans and America has been the most generous country in the world. To our detriment, unfortunately, because we've had a long line of politicians that don't seem to understand the concept of money management. They just keep raising taxes on us. So frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn if our "friends and allies" are put off by being asked to pay their fair share and get off the American teat.

Very well put. Exactly what happened. Can't imagine why nicky and his ilk always see America as the enemy. Now Trump IMO is a political buffoon. His ego (which unlike Obama) he puts out there for all to see. I think this summit with Putin was handled very amateurish. As I said, amateurish. Not
treasonous. Typical over the top liberal BS. Not that big of a surprise when you consider Trump has never held political office. He's had so much success as President here at home, whether it be appointing judges, tax cuts, eliminating regulations, and presiding over a stronger economy that I believe he thinks he can say or do anything abroad with no consequences. It is time for Trump to look P**********l abroad. He could do and say all the same things without giving his enemies any more ammo. He could have shot Putin and the left would impeach him for not getting along with a foreign leader. He believes that admitting Russia interfered in our e******n (believe me, he knows they did) is the same as saying they defeated Hillary. Our own Intelligence agencies say that is not the case. No v**es were changed. It's just typical l*****t drivel. Most liberals lost at everything or have some sort of confused mindset about why they lose. Never look at themselves as the reason. It's always someone else's fault. Trump needs to realize that the 26% of Americans that consider themselves very far left will never ever give him a fair shake, so he should just ignore them. Much of Trumps negative press he brings on himself. Much is outright negative propaganda by the so called press. If Trump and the republicans would just go forward from here on out and ignore the press, and the far left about Russia and tout the economy, point out the far left's plan, they actually have none except for disbanding ICE they could have a favorable mid-term e******n. By challenging everything Democrats and or their sycophantic press throw out Trump is playing into the Democrats hands. Amateur mistake.

There is a kernel of t***h in what you say about trade policy-- charging Japan no exchange rate for years and extremely low tariffs for European goods. Exposing our manufacturers to competition from cheap foreign goods and decimating Americas middle class workers. And bad tax policy over the last 40 years. The government has not been raising taxes on us it has been cutting them. 65 years ago the wealth gap was the narrowest in the nations history at 25 to one, and Corporations accounted for 33 % of all federal revenue. Today despite record breaking corporate profits they account for less than 10 % of federal revenue and that was before the Republican Congress gave them a 40 % tax cut. The national debt after 15 years of depression and war stood at 120 % of GDP. by 1979 it had been reduced to 32% of GDP. Then the conservatives were resurected for the first time since H erbert Hoover was defeated in 1932 when their standard bearer was elected to the highest office in the land and throwing fiscal responsibility to the wind slashed taxes and began a policy of borrowng and spendng and building the National debt over the top to in exess of 100 % of GDP
