Last night my husband and I had one of our many discussions about Trump, the theme is typically, “How did we get here? How was this man elected?” For those who follow Ms. Momocracy you know that I struggle with the idea that so many fellow Americans, friends and neighbors would be willing to overlook Trump’s severe character flaws or that they bought into his campaign rhetoric built on a policy of hate.
“Lock her up”—I have family members who believed that one. In fact, I remember during the early stages of the campaign saying to a family member that I believed Trump could never be elected and their response was that Hillary would be indicted before the election. They truly believed she had done something illegal. The emails! The EMAILS! National Security violations.
Yes, not using a secured server was dumb and should be scrutinized BUT isn’t the bigger issue that Russia hacked these emails with the intention of influencing the US election, discrediting Hillary, and electing their Putin Patsy, Trump. And that Russia planted stories about said emails, to keep the story “hot” so that Americans would buy into their manipulative-calculated scandal. AND stories about the scandal were feed to areas of the country where people were more likely to buy into the conspiracy theory, and more likely to be Trumpsters. Trumpsters, YOU WERE DUPED and the worst thing about the email scandal is that you will still not admit it was a Russian made scandal and you were influenced by it. #FarcicalFoxNews and Trumpsters are still focused on Hillary’s emails, which by the way REVEALED NOTHING.
Trump did more damage in ONE meeting with Lavrov and Kislyak, then the entire Russian Hillary Email scheme.
That meeting was a total $hit show:
- The meeting was arranged only after firing Comey the night before
- It was rumored to only have been arranged at Putin’s request
- Trump banned US press from the room but not the Russian press
- Trump divulged classified “CODEWORD” security information; security so sensitive you have to use code words to talk about it
- The security leak was a result of a ego brag, “My security is so good, it is the best…”
- The security was from an international ally [Israel–Trump later reveals this breach on his visit to Israel]
- Trump also bragged [theme emerging] about firing the “Nut Job” Comey and in the same breath provided evidence against himself for obstruction of justice in the FBI investigation into Russian/Trump collusion.
“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said, according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”
Still don’t believe he is a threat to national security? Maybe this meeting was just a “bad day” moment or you buy into the fact that as President he can do whatever he wants, that this was not illegal and he is a smart man that would never put the US in harm because of his incompetence….well, if you believe that you must be a die-hard Trumpster and nothing short an earth implosion will likely get you to change your mind.
Trump is on a international tour this week and his security breaches continue. When he meet with Israel this week, he publicly drove home the point that he can’t be trusted. Saying something like this, “I did not say it was Israel who provided the classified information that I then passed on to the Russians, see I can keep a secret.” Do you think Israel is going to share highly classified intel with the US, with Trump, now—if you think so, you just may be a Trump supporter.
- Or how about when he brags [yup, the bragging is definitely a problem] to the Philippine President on Wednesday about two nuclear submarines of the coast of North Korea–cover blown, folks.
- This man is a danger to himself, a danger to Americans, and a danger to the world.
