US spies say Trump's G7 performance suggests he's either a 'Russian asset' or a 'useful idiot' for P

    "It's hard to see the bar anymore since it's been pushed so far down the last few years, but President Trump's behavior over the weekend was a new low."

    I remember when Business Insider was an entirely pro-Republican/Conservative news outlet.

    When you start losing your media mouthpieces you should probably rethink your message.

    trump recently said in that Fox News: “Isn't working for us anymore” and was met by “Fox News isn't supposed to work for you”

    Such a sad failure of our government and an even worse failure by the people that support this adulterous, failed reality tv host / trust fund imbecile.

    "one FBI agent who works in counterintelligence told Insider."

    "One former senior Justice Department official, who worked closely with the former special counsel Robert Mueller when he was the FBI director, told Insider..."

    "A former CIA operative told Insider..."

    "a recently retired FBI special agent told Insider..."

    "The agent requested anonymity..."

    This is the easiest way to detect "Fake News", every source is anonymous. It reads like an old Saturday Night Live "Weekend Update" with Dan Akroid and Jane Curtin. :roflol:

    I think the term is "double-agent"

    Anyways, if he was actually working for the Russians we would all know by now. He doesn't come off as someone who is smart enough to hide something like that.

    Do you think it is categorically impossible for someone to support Russia's readmission into the G8 without being a paid shill or a Russian plant, or is it just this specific instance where you find the President's justification unconvincing?

    Yah, you really need to post your source article with this....

    There's a reason he does what he does and we don't completely know what it is yet, but it's most likely financial.

    I'd vote Useful Idiot over actual Russian Agent, because he's an Idiot in all other aspects of his presidency...

    P.S. This article shouldn't have gone with "US Spies...." because they quote people from the DOJ and FBI... that's misleading.

    You didn't read very far, didja.. dumb way to do the article, but they tease the stuff at the beginning, with the people quoted at the bottom

    "Glenn Carle, a former CIA covert operative"
    "Frank Montoya Jr., a recently retired FBI special agent"
    "Robert Deitz, a former top lawyer at the CIA and the National Security Agency"

    Not exactly the A list of people, but people who worked in our top Intelligence agencies are flat out saying Trump is adopting a distinctly Pro-Russian stance on many things. That's also not huge news anymore, but I won't discount it...

    You still will obviously... Ask yourself why?

    The pimping for putin at the g7 had every appearance of working for the russians..... and working in a way that was so blatant that it could be described as not smart. While i can see the advantage in this for putin, i fail to see the advantage for the usa. Nor do i see the subtle strategy in alienating the G6 at the same time he was pimping for putin.

    Does this thread conform with forum rules?

    I dont think so

    Which leads to the second question

    Do liberal trump haters have to abide by forum rules?

    1. Who allowed the Russians to meddle in our 2016 elections unchecked?
    2. Who promised the Russians "more flexibility" after the 2012 elections?
    3. Who attempted an infamous botched "reset" with the Russians?
    4. Who mocked Romney when he said that Russia was "our greatest geopolitical foe"?
    5. Who oversaw Russia's annexation of Crimea and did nothing?
    6. Who closed the horrible Uranium One deal with Russia?
    7. Who let Russia be responsible for securing Syria's weapons?
    8. Who invited Putin to Clinton Foundation galas?
    9. Who wanted to establish a Biden-Putin commission to forge cozier ties with the Kremlin?

    If you answered Obama and his administration to all, you are correct. Under Obama, we were in a news blackout for 8 years if the news was bad about Obama. We were kept in the dark and lied to by MSM who so wanted Obama to be their messiah. Now that he's gone, we are now learning the ugly truth about Barack. He was not the nice guy people thought he was. He politically weaponized his departments against his perceived enemies. He came in to the presidency not being a rich man, but yet is now worth $200 million. He made a killing being in office. How? So let's not speak about Trump being under Russia's thumb because the Democrats made that all up because of the weaponization of the intelligence agencies. It's a HOAX, people. But perhaps Obama, Hills, Biden and Putin were a match made in heaven...they all got RICHER...

    unfortunately, some people do not seem to understand the difference between "It's not working for us anymore" and "they don't work for us anymore".

    Yeah, Neil hit that one on the head real hard, real good job saying what had to be said.

    Thing is though, still prefer Trump to anything the Democrats had or seem to have going forward. Trump's personality is one issue, these people actually meant to destroy freedom of speech to suck up to Islam:

    "We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of [those that believe blacks are Kenites the descendants of Cain and the mark is upon them].” (Obama)

    "The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of [those that believe blacks are Kenites the descendants of Cain and the mark is upon them]." (Clinton)

    Quick, say something about "others," which includes any damn thing I want to put in there.

    “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam." (Obama)

    Translation: The future does not belong to science. And if you say one word about Obama not being a Moslem, I'll just point out the logic of the Obamanation with regard to any other human:

    "The future must not belong to those who slander [Trump]." Print that out and shove that up every Democrat Obama and Clinton loving butt.

    Now what, you want us to vote for Socialism, their justices, drug infested cities with **** on the sidewalks, cops being attacked while doing their job, and Open Borders...because Trump has the personality of a New York twit?

    If a fracking spy or General James Mattoon Scott wants to comment on public knowledge let the cowardly puke traitors show up on CNN, instead of slithering in the Deep State.
