You can't make this up...He now says he meant the complete opposite of what he said. Spin that TRT.

Hilarious. "D" handle pullers never get it. You're all told what to think, and even in saying that I'm giving credit where it's not due because none of 'the resistance' against the President is based in fact or in deed. In short there is no talking point so shallow or so thin, that many on the left would not run with it like it was a scroll from the library of Alexandria or something. It's all based in lies, innuendo, contempt or manufactured antipathy. According to the Dimm's stated manifesto, all they really care about is deposing the President. And that being the case, they are therefore quite prepared to take any path that might be required of them in order to do so. They don't care one whit whether he's actually guilty of wrongdoing or err. They don't care about a surging economy, rising feelings of cooperation between the US and other world powers. Nor do they care about the dwindling number of those on foodstamps, or the best unemployment/labor participation statistics in decades. The list goes a lot further but then if you cared about all that we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Of course I must clarify something here, I'm not deluding myself about the origination point of all the gifts this nation enjoys. To whatever extent, MR Trump is merely the Lord's instrument for present day. Our blessings come down to us from God: James 1:16-17 (KJV)
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

To the press conference. It was scripted for the most part, I mean, do you really think all of Putin's and Trump's remarks were spontaneous? And as such the proceedings coming out of the conference were for appearances sake, mostly eyewash. That said, Trump did flub up somewhat as I did hear him stumble a bit and seemed not as polished when he was reading from his prepared statement. Do you realize that this is a verifiable fact which may be taken from the text of the statement as prepared by his staff? What do you suppose Sarah Huckabee Sanders and the bulk of that tremendous staff the President had with him were there for? Just to make a good looking entourage?

The original text is verifiable but heaven help us, were his domestic enemies ever ready to pounce at any sign of a mistake. And for those like Paul Ryan whom never have a word of praise the President, but who nonetheless delighted in immediately jumping up on Trump's statement as being unacceptable or otherwise traitorous, they are themselves little better in my mind. So, I would bet that when Obama was making his apology tour in which he said... "America has "failed to appreciate Europe's leading role in the world" and has "shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive" it didn't put any kind of cocklebur under your saddle blanket now did it? Further, I am not aware of one time that Trump has ever lied to Americans, I do know however of several occasions when the media tried to say he lied to Americans. And I would bet major bucks that MR Trump did not pat Putin on the arm and ask him to wait until after the midterms or the Presidential election of 2020 before Putin forced any further of his demands on the US.

Seriously, did you really not consider that MR Obama had to have known exactly what Putin was demanding of the US before Obama asked for more time so that he could comply in that direction, and that at a time more suited to his liking? You don't think he might have been worried that should news of his giving the okey doke get out to voters prior to the election, that could seriously jeopardize his election chances? Putin was to forestall his hand to whatever extent until after the election. :please:

I'm just saying, give this one the old hail mary if you must. But I cannot see that you guys have a ghost of a chance to get rid of a duly elected President over what many say was a minor offense in view of the many good things which were accomplished.
