Yesterday, in historically shocking testimony, FBI Director James Comey and NSA Director Mike Rogers confirmed three things:
1) The Russians tried to "Hurt Our Democracy" by undermining the 2016 Election
2) They were working against Hillary Clinton
3) They were trying to help Donald Trump
See for yourself (the point blank admission begins at 4:00 to about 5:20)
Those three FACTS are not up for debate, as they were confirmed last year by our security agencies. The current open investigation is trying to determine whether the Trump Campaign/White House was actively working with a foreign hostile government to "hurt our Democracy."
That disclosure should've sent President Trump packing, but that wasn't the only bombshell. Rep. Adam Schiff lays out a brilliant connect the dots which sinks Trump. Watch his entire circumstantial analysis:
Trump's buffoonish followers, terrified of actually seeing the monster they've been cheering on for the last year, needed to re-establish their 'Trump myth.' They sprinted to the 'magic excuse well' to make a wish into it's murky depths. They needed a deflection fast! Here's what they came up with.
Deflection 1 - All the Trump people who were in contact with the Russians weren't actual Trump confidants. This is laughable. Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Carter Page, J.D. Gordon and Roger Stone were long time employees, advisors and/or friends of Trump. For God's sake, Manafort was his campaign chair! Flynn was his National Security Advisor! The Trump White House and his supporters acting like these guys were only serving cookies to phone bank volunteers in Kalamazoo is a hoot.
Deflection 2 - Foreign Countries do this all the time! Foreign countries do root for certain sides to win in other country's elections, and even occasionally will try to divert money to one side or the other, but I've never heard of a country dedicating a large portion of its intelligence community to hack and sabotage a US Presidential candidate and their political party during an election, in an effort to throw the election to the candidate of their choice. The minute this happened, we ceased being a super power, because super powers aren't supposed to be manipulated like this. What Russia did has never been done to the United States before. And they were successful!!! This should greatly bother ALL Americans, regardless of political party.
Deflection 3 - Look at the Democrats all the sudden upset at the Russians. I though the Commies were their friends! This is hilarious, because it shows how little the modern Republican voter knows about Russia. Russian Communism fell in 1991, 26 years ago. Today, on paper, they're a Federal Semi-Presidential Republic. In reality, it's an oppressive dictatorship, led by Vladimir Putin, an evil despot who has killed his political enemies, journalists, protestors and anyone else he damn well feels like killing, all in an effort to keep himself in control. He's surrounded himself with a sketchy circle of businessmen/organized crime leaders. The Russian government has been corrupted to the core by power hungry tyrant. EVERYONE should be very concerned Russia, under the control of Putin, has been able to undermine a US Presidential election.
Deflection 4 - I don't care since Hillary Clinton was not held accountable for her crimes! Hillary Clinton lost the election! She lost due to the electoral college undermining her 3 million popular vote victory. Even though she didn't commit any of the crimes the fever dream fueled right thinks she did, you can't argue she hasn't been held accountable. What else do the far right loons want; to haul her and her entire family out back and put a round in their temples? For goodness sake, no wonder you guys like Putin.
The modern Republican voter/Trump apologist has shown their true inner id. If they existed back in the time of the Titanic, they'd be demanding we pay no attention to the sinking boat and floating bodies, and only be concerned with any damage the iceberg suffered!
The Republicans, a political party who's wrapped themselves in Patriotism for the last 40 years, has embraced one of the most un-Patriotic acts this country has ever seen, as they've proven they're FAR more loyal to their political party than they'll ever be to the United States of America.
