    Finally Trump does one thing right, he signed the sanctions bill. Of course if he vetoed it it very very likley would gave been overridden.

    Does anyone think that I should give him credit for doing one and only one thing right during his presidency thus far?

    So why again is there an investigation to determine if Russia was guilty of anything if Congress has already condemned them?

    I mean, what is Congress going to do if Mueller comes back and says, "yep Russia did it"?

    They already punished them.

    And the investigation will continue, and we'll keep on punishing them.

    What is there to investigate, the Congress and Trump already declared them guilty.

    You just like to waste taxpayer money or something?

    It's how the Libs play politics and cry when it's done to them. Not to mention all the slow walking they're doing on Trump's appointments.

    It will prove that Trump lied and it will uncover and expose a possible cover up. Or it will proove that he did not lie or cover up. Yet I would say he must have lied and he must have attempted a cover up about the Russian involvement.

    Trump
    I just gave him credit forv signing the bill whatvelse for you want?

    Not sure what the SCOTUS has to do with signing the sanctions bill. Thus thread us about Trump signing the sanctions bill.

    this is like a herd mentality and dangerous. Signing these sanctions will increase tensions between two superpowers and lead to who knows what down the road. Tensions are already high and i think it's just plain stupid to be singing sanctions against Russia just because we want to measure d&ck sizes and show the other one who's bigger. Did Russia hack into DNC? so f-cking what, if people here think the US doesn't hack into other Country's business, you are f naive.

    here we are friends with Saudi Arabia, a country ruled by kings who suppress rights of women, cuts hands for things like theft, executes for petty crimes and abides by sharia law but we consider Russia the enemy? why? cause we don't like another alpha male challenging us, the whole election meddling is a pretext.

    NK is a completely different issue.

    What is there to cover up.

    Wiki hacked the DNC, gave the information to Russia, and they told us.

    What's this big cover-up you are referring to?

    By the way, where is the lefts outrage at the democrats for ACTUALLY sabotaging our election process?

    Why are they just mad at those that told us what was going on.

    Seems rather dumb to me.

    His hand was forced.

    A veto over-ride was a CERTAINTY.

    Trump deserves NO CREDIT for this.

    His hand was forced.

    The Democrats doing something wrong within their own primary process would be just as bad as Republicans doing something bad within within the Republican primary process. If such an event happened that is bad but that is an internal matter in the USA affecting us and done by us Americans. Since I cannot vote in the Democratic party primary I do not have a horse in that race. If I was registered as a Democrat I would be pissed. Since I voted for Kasich and if it was the Republicans who played games with the primary Ibwouod be passed. I am not happy atvwhat Waserman did but that us up to Democrats to deal with her not thise of us who vote in the Republican ordinary. Myvstate is a closed primary state sonRepublicans can only vite in a republican primary.

    The fact is that Russia a foreign enemy either interfere with or attempted to inference with our American process therefore I am pissed.
    Since it was a foreign enemy who interfered I am really pissed. Since it was Russia I am really really really pissed.

    Sorry but when a nation can affect another nation, through things like sanctions, they have as much at stake in the election process as anyone.

    Russia did nothing that any other top tier nation hasn't done.

    We have done it. Obama gave money, taxpayer money, to a political party in Israel to help them win an election.

    How many people in Russia will now lose jobs because of these new sanctions?

    How many will have their lives turned upside down?

    All Russia did is tell us what happened.

    What you are saying is that you would rather have American voters remain ignorant of what's going on.

    I am indeed pissed that he just said that the bill was "flawed". One wonders if the reason he did sign was because he feared that an override would hurt his EGO. What do you guys think did Trump sign and say get bill was flawed because he feared his EGO woukd be hurt if his veto was overridden?
