What could it be jimjam? Why would someone in charge of the world's largest military be afraid of Vladimir Putin? For Trump, it would have to be something like he's a gay bottom for Putin and all his masculine supporters would abandon Trump if it turns out he's gay. It really can't be anything like he hired prostitutes to pee on the bed where Obama slept, because nobody cares. You guys feign moral outrage, but unless it's illegal and frankly weird nobody cares. I thought the Al Franken thing was funny. For me to take that sort of thing seriously, you have to get to Carlos Danger sort of weird and have more than just a flimsy allegation of something that "might" have happened years or decades ago.

Considering Brennan's role, don't you think he more or less highlighted the fact that the deep state operates without Congressional oversight much of the time, because politicians are afraid of deep staters trying to blackmail politicians for petty things like boob grabbing (e.g., former Senator Al Franken)? You do realize you are siding with people who are basically unelected and unaccountable unless we ignore their bizarro antics and flush them out.

Unlike Obama, Trump has never purported to be a Messiah figure. Obama had school kids chanting, "Barack Hussein Obama, mmm mmm mmm. Red, Yellow, Black or White, all are equal in his sight. Barack Hussein Obama. Mmm. mmm. mmm." As I said, my response to the Stormy Daniels bullshit is to install a brass pole in the oval office. Maybe even one on Air Force One. If the US government wants to tell me that homosexuality is a basic right enshrined in the constitution, then a man being a pervert is just a natural outgrowth of a healthy libido. If he wants to make money with Russians and hasn't apparently broken any laws, why should we be any more suspicious of him than the Clintons?

Trump never said that anymore than he said all Mexicans are rapists and murders. Clearly, that approach isn't going to work on his supporters, because Trump supporters listen to what Trump says, not what MSNBC says that Trump said.
