    You know what I love about this thread. You mentioned Benghazi. I take it you now agree that the Obama administration (that you are referencing in your OP) failed.

    Also, who was President when Russia hacked the election?

    Seems odd that you'd knock yourself down.

    given what we know about obama’s plan to be more flexible with putin if he won in exchange for putin being easy on him during the 2012 election...this certainly looks much different

    Trump attacked that Iranian General based on unverified intelligence. So yea, he definitely already makes reckless decisions based on unverified intelligence.

    Hmm... let me ask you a question. The president says he wasn't briefed. I wonder, why could that be an important thing? More, why did the deep stater disclose it to the NYTs of all places? And once disclosed, why did the president not respond to it affirmatively. Here's the question. If you were running an operation and it was against the Russians, would you admit that you were aware and give the Russians a forewarning that perhaps their in trouble? And who might you think the disclosure was targeted for? Certainly for insipid snot droppers in the media, but could we, in reality, be witness to treason? IE, the disclosure of the operation to alert the Russians? And the pet media gobbling it up as a strike against the president? Bolton is off the reservation now, so his disclosure likely compromised sources and methods, no? So much to speculate about. I'm sure none of that occurred to you. Where is my Shocked face??:eekeyes: Oh... there it is.

    That was quite the outburst. I also noticed you didn't answer a simple question. The answer is "Obama" when asked "Who was President when Russia hacked us".

    But I find it odd that you're getting so defensive. It's just basic history. Trump didn't come into the white house until much later.

    Sad lives the MSNBC crowd live. Also, why did you mention Tara earlier? I thought the left supported rape victims?

    Holy moly, here you are now defending a terrorist. Will you never learn? And seems the intel was pretty good given the impact radius....

    My link quotes Trump and his press secretary claiming that they weren't briefed.

    But it also quotes the New York Times saying that he was briefed and disputes the reporting from the Pentagon that there was no corroborating evidence to support the intelligence.

    You didn't? Just then... when you criticized a president for his actions to have the dude killed? That isn't "supporting the terrorist"... It sure seems like it.

    Let me know when it occurs to you that "criticizing Trump" and "defending Soleimani" are not the same thing.

    LOL... your transparency undermines you. And the word is speculation... the conspiracy is what you seem to support.

    Does the phrase "Pentagon Papers" ring any bells?

    He's also shaming a rape victim. Which doesn't surprise me

    Why would you reference an illegal act to justify your position?

    And Bolton (another POS) is likely the one who briefed him. Look at Bolton's expression when Chuck Toad asked him about this at the 0:59 mark...

    I mentioned Tara earlier because you appear unable to actually make a comment that is relevant to the topic of this thread.
