    The only people screaming about the NATO summit are the pissy ass nations that are living free under the umbrella of those that do. P.S. - more money flowing into NATO. Don't you wish you were an American so that people would give a crap about what you think. Never mind, that wouldn't work either.

    Perhaps one of the best displays of how emphatic declaration coupled with willful ignorance produces absolute bullshit.

    You and trump both have no clue how nato works,but don't let a little thing like facts get in the way.

    Your welcome to share them. You know as soon as you have a melt down you have lost the argument. Then again, maybe the argument is not what your interested in, but spreading division.

    AS soon as you actually make an argument I'll be happy to respond. Hint" bullshit does not an argument make"

    Get back to me when you have LEARNED how NATO functions. Until then you are just parroting trump's idiotic ignorant mischaracterization.

    How is logical fallacy (ad hom) a valid argument.

    Running around crying "Propaganda - its a Russian Propaganda site" does not make the claim "anything from that site is propaganda" True.

    The war machine has it's own outlets and its apologists are allowed to read only them

    As far as I'm concerned the evidence isn't too hard to figure out as long as you're able to think. You've got thousands, literally thousands of people working in every criminal investigative service our country has saying that there is absolutely no doubt that Russia was guilty. You've got one poor example of a man who has lied to you over 3,000 times in the past year and a half telling you it's all 'fake news' and you don't know what to believe? Truly I feel sorry for you.

    Simple. The folks who blindly believe these claims do so because they want to. Because even they think it's the only thing they can get on Trump.

    And what does your narrative have to do with the fact that trump is a traitor? Butisms don't work with me,bet you can't "just" argue defense for trump without any butisms!

    Wrong question. It should be why do so many people believe that russian didn't interfere?

    Dunning Kruger reigns supreme in trumpland. I find it amazing that people who know NOTHING about the technology or how it all works, have such adamant opinions about how that technology works in the first place.

    So many "I'm no expert but I know this to be true".

    And of course, when presented with what any technical expert would consider definitive, they have no clue, so they just kneejerk a generalized fallacious dismissal such as, "you can't believe the government".

    I have no interest in carrying on this conversation with someone who loosely uses words like traitor and treason for the president. It shows a lack of understanding about what constitutes treason or being a traitor.

    And the LYING PERSISTS!!!

    VOTE BLUE at every opportunity on the local, state and Federal levels.

    You see, Trump's words/ways, are ENABLED by the GOP itself; that is very clear.
