Trump On Russia's Election Meddling: 'We're All To Blame'

[@HighPriestessIce]

As an outsider who's been watching America in both mild fascination and horror, the amount of shit this man has gotten away with is mind blowing. But not nearly as mind blowing as those that still defend him. For a people so frightened of foreigners and "illegal aliens" you'd think colluding with Russia would make them flip their lids.

[@plaidpanda]

TheLastHylianTitan The average Trump supporter would burn his own fucking house down if he thought the liberal next door would choke on the smoke for 20 minutes.

[@benzaiten933]

same here. I'm observing what John Oliver called "stupid watergate" so I will have a story to tell to my grandchildren once I'm old and grey "you know this was when I was young and I can well remember how outrageous this trump boy acted". either way, the more I see about it the more glad I am that I'm not living in the USA, that this piece of corrupt shit isn't my president. I truly pity the US citizens for having to live with him and the GOP enablers.

[@RadioJosiah]

[@rmn1228]

Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that!

[@PredatoryQQmber]

"Stone-faced as a Bond villain" ? Maybe if you only look at edited footage from war-mongering western media owned by oligarchical clans that fume fires of war and invent new "enemies" every day for them to plunder with the hands of dimwits in your military that are being paid out of your pocket while you praise yourself as a patriot. If you would actually bother to look at any full footage of Putin, you would see that he as soft-spoken as one can be. Everything you think you know is nothing but propagandistic bullshit of an excuse for anti-Russian hate-mongering and instigation of wars. And Putin does laugh about that, as do almost all Russian and many others around the world, because looking from outside at The American Delusion, that oligarchy-owned media paints, is surrealistically funny. It's unbealiavable that people can seriously eat up such delirious lies. One can't not to laugh… at least until they bomb another country while using this nonsense as pretex and you, people, happily cheer for it. Buuuut, preaching to the choir of raging chauvinistic fanatics that grew to love western oligarchical imperialism and post-WW2 destruction of entire nations for such lies is, probably, a waste of time >_< For me, watching Colbert and Trevor Noah is a learning experience for understanding the depth and cunningness of crime-justifying hypocrisy, like interviews with serial killers. Not fun at all.

Tucker is not smart enough to come up with that himself. He doubtless learned it from a ten year old. Perhaps Bart Simpson himself, like the time when Marge confronts him with a question which reveals she is hot on the trail of his latest solo misdemeanour, to which he replies "That's a good question, and I have a question for you: where was Lisa last night when she was supposed to be tucked up in bed?"

Do you have evidence that Russia meddled with the 2016 election? Evidence that could be used to justify sanctioning russia even more. FBI: No CIA: No NSA: No Witnesses: No Putin: No Trump: see I told you Russia didn't do anything. Trump does not have the kind of power to stop the evidence from being brought forth, so why is it that we have yet to see any action from the proper authorities on the issue?

[@takatamiyagawa5688]

Russia is a sovereign nation. There's no definitive 'action' that can be taken that wasn't already taken long before. Economic sanctions? Already done. Looking at it pragmatically, America voted for warmer Russian relations, and the price is a president that will believe the president of Russia instead of every American intelligence agency.

[@chrisjackson1215]

We've seen Trump hs had meetings with Russian officals. We have seen he has laundered money after his last bankruptcy for Russian officals. We have evidence that Russia hacked into not only the election but elected officals private information and communications. You need to wake the hell up Zyxyx. Even if you DONT believe Trump had anythkng to do with it the mans a moron and he is wrecking every founding principle of this country. Not even our closest allies respect us under his leadership. His idiocy deserves impeachment. His actions that go agaimst America warrant execution as a traitor.

[@azurebalmung4520]

[@kennethfrank8337]

How is it Treason?

[@lilsammich8252]

He's already orange, peach would be an improvement.

[@nesohawkins]

Treason is the only crime explicitly defined in the US Constitution, in section three of Article III. "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court," the Constitution says. This definition of treason is narrow and requires a high burden of proof. Someone can only commit treason against the US in favor of another nation if the US is at war with said country. It also requires at least two witnesses, or for the alleged traitor to confess. In order for Trump to have committed true treason, it must first be proven that the US is at war with Russia. But the terms "aid and comfort" are deliberately ambiguous, giving courts plenty of room to interpret what exactly those conditions mean. Jens David Ohlin, vice dean and professor of constitutional law at Cornell Law School, told Business Insider that even without a formal declaration, there is a case to be made that Russia and the US are indeed at war. "One argument would be that Russia has engaged in a covert cyber-intervention against US interests, including election meddling, that rises to the level of hostilities," he wrote. "However, an even better argument would be that Russia and the United States are on the opposite sides of various armed confrontations in Syria," he continued, referencing Russia's backing of the Syrian regime in opposition to the US' backing of anti-Assad rebel groups. Wright and Ohlin both agreed Trump's comments open himself to greater legal liability, but to differing degrees. While Ohlin said the president's conduct at the summit increases the chances of him being impeached, Wright argued those chances will only increase if Trump is proven to have been blackmailed in some way by Russia. "Trump is clearly helping Russia - whether it rises to the level of 'aid and comfort' would be for a jury to decide or for the House of Representatives to decide if it pursues articles of impeachment," Ohlin wrote. Ohlin added that while most expected a Democratic House to impeach Trump for obstruction of justice in relation to his attacks on the Mueller probe, Trump's latest defense of Russia at the expense of the US makes it "more likely" for the House to pursue impeachment on articles of "treason or some other disloyalty-based allegation" if the Democrats win back a majority in this year's midterm elections.

Many of us were warning other people that this buttbrain has never been anything but a lying huckster. I am a Republican but there was absolutely no way that I would ever commit treason by voting for a pathological liar, a racist, and a pathetic con man.

Neither is trying to push the DACA program , while your democrats are blocking it . What you would have to prove is that someone is unfit. One example is rape. Another example is defending a rapist, and laughs about it. Another one is when people on their watch call for help and is ignored , and get killed, especially when that person was the person in charge...….and laughs about it in the courtroom. Some peeps are impeached even before they make Presidency, in some cases I see.

[@joannelindsay4977]

I couldn't stay up late to hear Stephen's take on the summit......thank God for KZbin!

[@Nissinet]

I read the comments from different people about the Trump accomplishment in the Putin summit. I am stunned of sum of the comments, the defend for Trump and his lack of reality. If this is the way Republicans like to have their country is administered, by all mean. But we all must ask ourselves, is this the way to handle the Russian leader, their threat to all democratic nations, and threat to United States. Never in my life I have experienced such a toothless Republican Party and citizens with no sense of reality, defending a President that obviously has ties to Russia in one or another way that is not compatible with a free nation, a nation that all democratic nations need, not a Trumplandia kissing totalitarian behinds and in a disgusting way, selling his conscience and accusing his own country’s institutions legitimacy to another country’s leader, a leader with no what so ever moral limits. It is a “Day that will Live in Infamy”. A sad day for all democracies in the world.

[@KanecoV]

Remember there are thousands of fake accounts in social media spreading propaganda to give Trump and his ideas a false sense of popularity

[@mgmred]

Disgraceful. Embarrassing. Disgusting. Duplicitous. He violated his oath, in public, in front of the whole world, in the open, in front of the man who owns him (that expression, when the reporter asked if Vlad had any compromising material on him, says it ALL). Words cannot describe how much I hate this man, with every fiber of my being, every bone in my body. Impeach him. NOW.

[@marysharkey1503]

My Good, aren’t you a little bit concerned about your country, his acting to Putin speak for itself, I don’t give a s… about your social security, if you don’t yourself, but you should at least be about your country.

[@xdevantx5870]

Mueller knows what he's doing. This is the exact playbook he used to take down the mob. Currently he has 35 indictments and 5 guilty pleas in this investigation. Despite what Hannity might screech everyday, he's not going to "give us all the proof". He's going to prosecute the crimes one by one until he's done. This investigation isn't taking place in the court of public opinion or on a TV drama; but real courtrooms, with real criminal trials, done in the correct legal fashion to secure convictions and plea deals.

[@czgibson3086]

Don't lose hope, Richard Nixon was impeached and convicted over his efforts to cover up illegal activities by members of his administration in the Watergate scandal.

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Treason is a capital offence and is punishable by death.

[@justafanintexas7913]

Incorrect. By 1965, capital punishment had been abolished for almost all crimes, but was still mandatory (unless the offender was pardoned or the sentence commuted) for high treason until 1998. By section 36 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 the maximum punishment for high treason became life imprisonment.
