Does anyone here still trust the Don to, "make America great again?"dignin said:AP Source: Trump aide in frequent contact with Russia envoy
By JULIE PACE
WASHINGTON (AP) — A senior U.S. official says the Obama administration is aware of frequent contacts between President-elect Donald Trump's top national security adviser and Russia's ambassador to the United States.
The official says the contacts happened on the day President Barack Obama expelled dozens of Russian officials from the U.S. and imposed sanctions as punishment for election-related hacking. The official says the administration is also aware of contacts between Trump adviser Michael Flynn and Ambassador Sergey Kislyak at other times as well.
The day after Obama announced sanctions, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he would not retaliate. Trump praised him for his restraint.
Flynn's conversations were first reported by Washington Post columnist David Ignatius. The official was not authorized to confirm the contacts publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

The man, Trump, has not a clue about the Oval Office, the responsibilities thereof or how government functions and what it does .

Here's the way I'm thinking about it....HughFreakingDillon said:ok, I'm just trying to think of this objectively. do we honestly, in all seriousness, really believe that President Tweet and his entire team is really this stupid, and is being manipulated by Putin?
It's the old saying, "though does protesteth too much". His denials are so vehement and off the wall that it doesn't seem balanced. If someone told you that the Russians have a dossier on your.. would you say "Lies! It's all lies. Fake news!". Or would you say.. that would be of great concern. I'm going to ensure that my national defense team gets to the bottom of this." Because if it's not true, how would he know it's not true?? You could ONLY know if it's true.0 -
think about the daily life of a president. as president what risks do they really have to take and what is the reward, punishment? what risks did obama take? he followed and or expanded 95% of what bush did, plus pushed for disastrous health insurance reform. bush was a total disaster, and what happened, nothing. if bush can be the president for 8 years, and obama follow, anybody can be president. reagan, was also a celebrity/actor/president and he is considered to be the best president ever behind washington. take down that wall to build that wall.HughFreakingDillon said:

FBI had Trump-Russia report in summer 2016, Senate to investigate
Rachel Maddow shares a new report that the FBI had the unverified Trump-Russia dossier in the summer of 2016 but said nothing while instead talking openly about the ultimately fruitless Clinton investigation.
