    Make up your mind donald, you’re great friends or you want nothing to do with him. Which is it?

  2. How on earth are huge sums of people in our country considering voting for Putin’s friends?

    Aren’t these the same creeps who say it’s good to be friends with Russia?

  4. I keep comparing this to the whole Hilary’s *emails* debacle – except Trump is his own ‘October Surprise’

  5. What’s sad is that statement is so pathetically juvenile that I assumed Trump said it himself but instead people on his campaign are now talking like him. 

  6. Trump trying to discredit Bob Woodward is an absurd strategy. Bob Woodward is one of the main journalists who exposed Nixon’s Watergate scandal and crimes.

    He lashes out at everything. Besides everyone knows he’s riding Putin’s 🐓. I would have expected more than 7 times. Seems low.

  8. Nowhere near “all the evidence”. You can bet there is a lot more in the parts of the Mueller report that Barr buried to protect his boss.

    Ahh so the guy that said if we don’t test we will have less cases happened to give testing equipment to another country…which could have been used here to speed up slow results early on.

    He is Putin’s bitch, and all of MAGA are there for Putin’s sloppy seconds

  11. Putin owns and commands the russian mafia. trump has laundered russian mob money illegally for 50 years now, using his fake businesses to hide foreign money. He has hung out with the russian agents and mobsters he gives his properties to so much and watched and listened to them that he wanted to be a mob boss. That’s why he acts like and pretends he is a mob boss. He sees these others do it and command fear and respect, and he thinks that’s how he can get the same. So he pretends. And the russians let the dunce hang out with them because he’s a useful idiot and cleans their money for them. Billions of dollars over the years.

    Trump is closer to the russian mob (and putin) than his own family.

    > A statement put out by Trump’s communications director, Steven Cheung, is rife with ad hominem attacks against journalist Bob Woodward, calling him a “total sleazebag,” “an angry, little man,” “a truly demented and deranged man,” and also “a boring person with no personality.”

    In other words, the Trump campaign confirmed that the story is true.

  13. Quote from the article: *”A statement put out by Trump’s communications director, Steven Cheung, is rife with ad hominem attacks against journalist Bob Woodward, calling him a ‘total sleazebag,’ ‘an angry, little man,’ ‘a truly demented and deranged man….”*

    That’s *trump’s* language, that’s *trump* speaking (“demented” and “deranged” are two of the oft-used words in trump’s extremely limited vocabulary) — Cheung just made the statement more readable. trump is a completely thin-skinned weakling, lol! All Woodward did was tell the truth — but of course the *TRUTH* is trump’s enemy.

    Why is him being pissed a story? Why should we care how he feels? Fuck him.

  15. “Trump’s team is pissed”

    yeah, so am I, but we are not the same…

    My 68 yr old boomer ass would love to see him face some serious consequences on this stuff, sooner the better
