I don’t accept the premise of that post, unless you are talking about Obama before the election.

You don’t accept the premise that Russia is trying to undermine our democracy? Or that the president seems disinclined to acknowledge it?

I am now. Promise.

I have no doubt that you don’t doubt that.

Some of y’all are having difficulties adjusting to a President that is open and honest. You don’t have to guess what the President is thinking and doing. He says what’s on his mind whether you like it or you don’t. He could be right or he could be wrong, but that doesn’t stop him from saying it.

You are probably missing that snug little world where you lived in ignorance not knowing what the Obama was up until months after it was done. You sure couldn’t tell what he really thought, by the time he got through humming and hawing, you forgot what the question was. He was afraid to say what he really thought … that’s the way of a lifetime politician.

Our President has doubts about who hacked into the DNC and Hillary’s campaign manager’s emails, so do many others. I am skeptical about everything that comes out of the DOJ, and the FBI and the other Intelligence agencies. We have good reason to be skeptical.

This post is sad on so many levels.

Lets look at the Politico take on it:

“Later in the day, Trump tweeted again about the former president and Mueller’s indictment, this time accusing Obama of not executing further countermeasures against the Kremlin “Because he thought Crooked Hillary Clinton would win” the 2016 election.”

POLITICO

Trump blames Obama for Russian election meddling

The president asked why the Obama administration didn't “do something about" Russia's cyberattacks.

Trump could hardly be accusing Obama of not taking countermeasures unless Russia had done something requiring countermeasures.

You have to remember, blaming Obama for something is reason enough to do anything. He isn’t indicating we should do anything about Russia attacks on our elections, he just wanted to blame Obama because.

So why was he scared to say it in front of Putin?

The Obama administration told trump, et all what Russia was doing. trump ignored it. Why do you think he did that?

calirepub · 2018-07-17T17:35:34.953Z

Because it was helping him.

Donald looks out for his friends and destroys his enemies. It’s what a deal-maker does. You won’t want to get on his bad side.

OK, I’ll grant that he’s acknowledged it, even though he only did so in that instance to take a swipe at Obama. What steps has he taken to ensure the credibility of our looming midterms, beyond his preposterous claims of Democratic voter fraud? If he acknowledges there’s a problem, shouldn’t he do something about it?

Did you just say honest when describing Trump?

That’s not the word I’d use.

He is. He is also transparent.

He’s not perfect, but he’s better than the alternative, Mike Pence.

If Trump shot somebody on Barack H. Obama Avenue would he lose any voters?

ABC7 San Francisco

100,000 sign petition to rename 5th Avenue in front of Trump Tower after...

What started out as a joke to rename Trump Tower's address to 725 President Barack H. Obama Avenue now has more than 100,000 signatures, but don't expect a name change any time soon.

The Republican Party has gone from Lincoln at his first inaugural saluting the better angels of our nature to now, a celebration of the behaviors of Donald Trump and a gleeful modelling of his approach.
