More sour grapes from the democrats?

This has put Trump into an awkward position.

The CIA and the FBI both agree that Russia is at fault here. So if Trump doesn't agree and support the CIA and FBI, he is going to be made to look very silly.

Trump...its your call !

Wrong thread Khandro?

[Khandro]

Gromit; It relates to my post at 8:22 ref. UN and Israel
btw, did you see my final post last night on;

Khandro,

The Israel/US/Trump May situation is probably worth a thread on its own. I decided against posting it because it would be predictable how it would pan out on here.

I believe you are a German resident, did Karlheinz Schreiber ever fess up on his return from Canada?

It's clearly Obama with his hooter put well out of joint attemting to make trouble for Trump.

It wont work, The Donald is a businessman he wont care who he upsets and if they dont go with him then they will be fired.

Putin has taken the upper hand here and declared there will be no tit for tat expulsions. Obama is now looking the fool - again.

[sp1814]

To summarise

President Obama, miffed at Clinton's failure to secure enough votes to be elected President forces the CIA and FBI to manufacture evidence of a Russian conspiracy, then boots out 35 diplomats risking the start of diplomatic tit-for-tat.

Is that correct?

To what end?

I'll be honest - if I had to name a US politician capable of an act of pique on that scale, it would be the one who tweets criticism of Saturday Night Live sketches at 2:30am during the Presidential race.

That would be Donny Boy.

Maybe mikey has it right @ 08:23 Fri 30th Dec 2016, and does deserve a carrot. Who knows with all the lies and deceit.

Russia-US row: Trump praises Putin amid hacking expulsions

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-38473240

Trump digs himself an even bigger hole. The CIA and the FBI, and the Dept. of Homeland Security have all agreed that Putin and Russia is up to their armpits with this.

And what does Trump do ? Support his own agencies, or side with the War Criminal ?

You couldn't make it up if you tried !

[-Talbot-]

Obama ... the too little too late president.

[mikey4444]

Trump...the already-inadequate next President !

This is what the American people voted for....a President that is going to suck up to a nasty Russian War Criminal !

[Khandro]

mikey; //Trump...the already-inadequate next President !//

What else do you see in your crystal ball?

[-Talbot-]

There is no serious person out there who would suggest you could even rig America's elections

[mikey4444]

Talbot....but there is evidence, seen by the CIA and the FBI, that you can TRY to rig the Election, which is what happened. Anyway, Putin is a nasty War Criminal, which hasn't changed with these allegations.

Trump has still jumped the wrong way here.

[Kromovaracun]

I strongly suspect Obama's purpose in all of this (among other things) was to bait Trump into cheering on Putin openly and in public.

Which, lo and behold, the "great businessman" immediately did.

[Kromovaracun]

The FBI and NCCIC have released a short and readable Joint Analysis Report explaining their suspicions and the tools which Russian intelligence services are suspected of using. Whatever your position on this is, it's necessary to read what they are saying before passing a judgement on it:

[mikey4444]

Kromo.........I think you are right.....Trump has fallen, well and truly, into the trap !

[Khandro]

Can anyone suggest why the Barak Obama thread has vanished?

[mikey4444]

No K, I can't but the thread asking was removed as well !
