The President’s son released emails where he was gleefully collaborating with an intermediary of the Russian government to obtain dirt on Hillary.

The only things that are going to possibly make any meaningful difference at this point is a massive electoral victory or violence. Neither of these seem likely.

How could a Republican convince another Republican that the information which was withheld was necessarily done so for security/privacy/whatever reasons? Heavens it must be impossible!

Imagine telling your grandkids that you spent the Trump presidency being a nihilistic contrarian troll.

Trump’s voter base is 100% okay with being Vlad Putin’s vichy regime. They probably admire Putin way more, he’s a legit strongman billionaire with sexxxy abs.

They will listen to Mueller who's in charge? I agree that if we get the full report, it will be through some "unauthorized" leak.

And this unauthorized leak hardly seems like it would be far-fetched. And the threat of that leak provides Barr with a strong incentive to not be too liberal with the redactions. If he covers up something important and material with a redaction and then that section of the report is leaked in dacted form, it makes Trump and Barr look even worse than had it just been released in the first place.

Conspiracy? Wtf are you talking about, Trump’s campaign was actively working with intermediaries for the Russian government to hurt Trump’s political opponents. That **** is clearly established. You’re being a useful idiot to pretend otherwise.

Russia is the great white hope. They would rather us be allied with them over the French and other Europeans.

The claim that Troll Trollson guy was making was that Trump's administration is the Vichy government of Putin. That is, that Trump is a literal puppet of the Russians, as the Vichy government was of the Nazis. Even if what you claim is true it does nothing to establish that Putin is somehow controlling Trump. Saying that Trump is a literal puppet of Putin is absolutely a wholly unsupported conspiracy theory.

Let's try bolding the opposite part of the sentence you bolded:

Trump sides with Russia against FBI at Helsinki summitAt a news conference after the summit, President Trump was asked if he believed his own intelligence agencies or the Russian president when it came to the allegations of meddling in the elections.
"President Putin says it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it would be," he replied.

Re: The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: State of Emergency
it's bigly possible, i'd say at this point probable, that trump acts as putin's puppet and uses his position as president of the united states to ingratiate himself to putin NOT because he's being blackmailed, but because trump is a super corrupt dude who will do just about anything to sell luxury condos in russia.

Read what he wrote, that’s not his claim. His point was that it doesn’t matter even if such a conspiracy exists because Trump’s support doesn’t care.
