This is a major National Security issue and not sour grapes, as many here try to dismiss, ignore or deny the confirmed hacking by Russia specifically aimed to help Trump get elected. Such behavior I will simply label as reckless and not treasonous, though putting ideology before country come close.
Until there is a thorough investigation into whether Trump knew about or colluded a foreign powers attempt to undermine our democratic process, we cannot allow Trump to take the presidency. Looking at their comments to and about each other can now be seen in an entirely new light. Read below:
"He's not going into Ukraine, OK, just so you understand. He's not going to go into Ukraine, all right? You can mark it down. You can put it down. You can take it anywhere you want," Trump said in an interview on Sunday with ABC's George Stephanopoulos on "This Week."
"Well, he's already there, isn't he?" Stephanopoulos responded, in a reference to Crimea, which Putin took from Ukraine in early 2014.
At the end of 2015, Vladimir Putin lauded Trump's p**********l campaign, calling him "an absolute leader of the p**********l race, as we see it."
In response to Putin's compliments Trump said: "It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond."
Putin has called Trump a "very outstanding man" and "unquestionably talented."
When Russia continued its military buildup in Syria and Putin backed the country's President Bashar al-Assad in 2015, Trump declared the Russian leader earned an "A" in leadership.
Trump not only gave the Russian leader an "A," he also said Putin has been a better leader than US President Barack Obama. "He is really very much of a leader," Trump said of Putin. "The man has very strong control over his country. Now, it's a very different system, and I don't happen to like the system, but certainly in that system he's been a leader, far more than our president has been a leader."
At a national security forum in September, Trump explained his friendly relationship with Putin saying: "If he says great things about me, I'm going to say great things about him."
When asked about allegations that Putin orchestrated the deaths of his political opponents and journalists, Trump defended Putin: "I haven’t seen any evidence that he k**led anybody."
After T***p w*n the e******n November 8, Putin sent the president-elect a telegram congratulating him on his victory.
Even if Trump did not know or collude with Putin, his ignorance of what Putin is and does should be enough to render him unfit to hold office.
This is a major National Security issue and not so... (
