Trump hacked. Can someone please answer this question?

Posted By Jim Moscheck

When Hillary's emails were leaked during the 2016 election and published immediately with the Trump campaign fully taking advantage of their release why is it is the media is showing such restraint when it comes to Trump's campaign?

What happened to "Russia, are you listening?"

"Nick Merrill, who was a spokesman for Clinton’s 2016 campaign and pushed back against publication of the hacked documents at the time. On Monday, he noted the Trump campaign was in a similar role this time.

“In addition to the characteristic hypocrisy, they just spent three weeks trying to explain they’re not weird,” Merrill said via text. “And I’d imagine that sharing their internal correspondence is going to help dispel that notion.”

Asked if that meant he now thought hacked materials should be published, Merrill replied: “A precedent has been set here. I’m not passing judgment on it.”

From the Trump campaign this week:  

“Any media or news outlet reprinting documents or internal communications are doing the bidding of America’s enemies and doing exactly what they want,” Steven Cheung, the campaign’s communications director, said in a statement on Saturday announcing that the campaign had been hacked.


The campaign has not responded to questions about why its view on hacking changed, including a query on Monday from The Associated Press. But its new position is a striking change from 2016, when Trump heartily embraced the Russian hacking of his opponent Clinton’s aides and the Democratic National Committee."


I say their ******* hypocrites.

Regardless of opinions I tend to go with my impressions of the person.....

Vance appears to be the guy that would mow your grass because you broke your leg...... Walz appears to be the guy that would call the HOA because your grass is too tall......

That about covers it for me.....
That about says it all about you.

Donald Trump told this story about Putin respecting his authority as president claiming, when talking to Vladdy about Ukraine:

"I said to Putin, I said, 'don't do it, you can't do it Vladimir, you do it and it's going to be a bad day. You cannot do it".

And he said 'no way,' and I said, 'way.'"

This is the guy the GOP nominated. Doesn't he have any handlers to keep him from posting this crap?

But wait, there's even more:

The crazy old man running for president thread

Posted By Jim Moscheck

Instead of posting a new thread every time I find a new eloquently stated video or transcript the GOP nominee has said recently, using the best words BTW, I'll just post them to this thread to cut down on the number of new posts. 

I'm sure Greg will be thankful for that, not that he ever has anything to say about the looney toons ex-prez except to say his patented line of not liking him, but likes his policies.

Anyone know what a "half a deal" is?

Transcript from Trump's new conference at Mar A Lago. Yeah, I know, more crowd size blather. This is the time he said that 25,000 is more than 1,000,000. Biden is too old and realized it. Trump's scatterbrained response to a question about the transfer of power and Jan. 6th:

"If you look at January 6th, which a lot of people aren’t talking about very much. I think those people were treated very harshly when you compare them to other things that took place in this country where a lot of people were killed. 

Nobody was killed on January 6th (uh, yes, one of your supporters was shot and killed, but what does that matter) but I think that the people of January 6th were treated very unfairly and they were there to complain, not through me. They were there to complain about an election and it’s very interesting. 

The biggest crowd I’ve ever spoken to, and I said peacefully and patriotically, which nobody wants to say, but I said peacefully and patriotically… The biggest crowd I’ve ever spoken to, and you’ve seen, Maggie, I was at the mall, I was at the Washington Monument, I was at the whole thing. I had crowds. I don’t know who’s ever had a bigger crowd than I have, but I had it many times.

The biggest crowd I’ve ever spoken before was that day, and I’ll tell you, it’s very hard to find a picture of that crowd. You see the picture of a small number of people relatively going to the Capitol, but you never see the picture of the crowd. 

The biggest crowd I’ve ever spoken, I’ve spoken to the biggest crowds… Nobody’s spoken to crowds bigger than me. 

If you look at Martin Luther King, when he did his speech, his great speech, and you look at ours, same real estate, same everything, same number of people. If not, we had more, and they said he had a million people, but I had 25,000 people, but when you look at the exact same picture… And everything’s the same because it was the fountains, the whole thing, all the way back from Lincoln to Washington, and you look at it and you look at the picture of his crowd, my crowd, we actually had more people. They said I had 25,000 and he had a million people… And I’m okay with it because I like Dr. Martin Luther King."

Hahaha. Now you just ignore Brian and keep on going with your original thinking there, Greg. Gee, you is so smart to come up with something like that all by yourself. LOL. 

At least when I steal a good and/or funny quote I acknowledge it with a link as to where I got it.

And remember your mantra: you don't like the man, but you like his policies.

Pretty much hits the proverbial nail on the head.
