House speaker: Trump ��must appreciate that Russia is not our ally,�� cites intelligence that it interfered in U.S. election


Paul Ryan's statement came shortly after President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin's news conference in Helsinki. Trump cast doubt on U.S. intelligence findings and said Putin strongly denied interfering in the U.S. election.

Ryan said that there is no question Russia interfered and continues to undermine democracy around the world, stressing that it was the finding of U.S. intelligence and a House committee. The Wisconsin Republican said there is no moral equivalence between the United States and Russia.

Let's start with phucking up NATO. Then there is the refusal of Trump to enact the sanctions the US Congress has voted to impose on Russia. And finally, there Trump has made no effort of condemn Russia over Ukraine or its clear interference in the US election. In pretty much any other Western democracy if a political leader did that they would have been removed from office long ago.

How did he phuck up NATO? By demanding the participating nations to get their ducks in a row? Calling out Germany with it's energy deal with Russia? Do you mean the extra sanctions that Europe doesn't want to follow? I'm not a fan of the news briefing either, but nobody knows yet what was said behind closed doors

The economy was booming before Trump took over. And you can't point to a single accomplishment Trump has made in regard to the economy other than a massive tax cut - when the economy was already booming - which will increase the debt by trillions of dollars.

No it wasn't.
