'Betrayal': U.S. Army Intel Officer Slams 'Disloyal' Trump For Being 'Obedient' To Putin | MSNBC
Trump will blame anyone but himself. That’s literally all he does.
Aleza Seibert big facts!
That’s just a common practice in US politics especially the higher up you are
He’s quite right to blame everyone. It’s ”everyone’s” fault he’s still there!!! ”Everyone” starts with the GOP.
leave im b killing his own citizens and still no action from amerikkka. sickos
First Obama, Democrats, China.
Who knew if we elected a kkk game show host things would get this bad? oh wait.😔
I’m just surprised they’re now paying attention to Russia’s interference when it was so blatantly obvious.
This intel wasn’t actually put out till just a few days ago. I mean, we all know that Russia interfered in the 2016 election but this can be an act of treason. It’s punishable by life in prison
@Jacob Wilkie Which makes this just a delightful cap on this 4-year term of chaos.
Trump loyalty is to Putin, and his actions say he despises America…
Trump’s loyalty is to Trump. Putin just knew how to manipulate him.
tump’s loyalty is not to America, his loyalty is to American MONEY, that is all
This isn’t betrayal, this is treason.
Exactly.
Donald Trumpsky is loyal soviet puppet. Trumpsky obey the Kremlins orders.
@Jim Battersbee He is a symptom of the moral vacuum that is American politics.
@Amadeo komnenus
63 million Americans elected him
The GOP selected him.
The Electoral College elected him.
The American political system isn’t in a “moral vacuum” alone.
Cheers
@Jim Battersbee You believe there is morality in politics? I think there was once. In Eisenhowers tenure. Take care, be safe.
@Amadeo komnenus
No, I said American politics is not alone in being in a moral vacuum. The politicians have company: the people who elect them.
Cheers
Moscow Trump 😀😃😄😁
The fact that Trump isn’t being physically dragged & beaten out of the white house proves this country is already lost
@Tone Justice The USA is filled with SPANISH names like Florida /Los Angeles . where did you go to school ?
@Tone Justice i guess you are done here . clown
TrumpaTeers still won’t take their thumbs outta his a**!
@LUIS VELEZ Are you sure?
@CarlosChip Morales you won’t get it If you See the proof Fight in Front of your eyes….
Remember when Trump was being Impeached he made a comment something like “they Impeached me on that, really?” – this is an example of why.
Right?
It was like he was saying, “of all the impeachable offenses I’ve committed, THIS is the one they impeach me over?!”
Russia if you’re listing, we are about to cut the strings of your puppet.
WISHFUL THINKING.
“Off with their strings!” …get the guillotine!
Please reread your comments. What is Russia supposed to be doing “listing”
@justsaying keep going to your white power rallies, just sayiiinnnn…….
I can hear ” It’s Obama’s fault”.
But, ahm…. her emails?
And here come the MAGA Churchers criticizing an actual retired service member in favor of Bunkerboy. The way John McCain was treated by Trump and his flunkies was DEPLORABLE!
When will people understand. Trump never gave a crap about America, he’s probably there just to get more $ out of the market
as if his interviews from the 80s say otherwise
We the people going have vote all GOP’s out office and trump take America back
The world supports you the people
Definitely
Every. Single. One.
When will enough of trump’s disloyalty to America be enough to remove him from office?
You need to ask the REPUBLICAN Party that question. REMEMBER the Republican Senate REFUSED to listen to new witnesses (e.g. Bolton) and documents in Trump’s B.S. “impeachment trial”. They then proceeded to ACQUIT him! Absolutely Outrageous!
Yet, we have so many idiots who are “Troops for Trump” General BONE SPURS, knows not a thing about the troops.
Exactly….I’ve seen them. Like the rest of his base & White nationalist, they won’t believe it.
Well the military forces overall supported this reject in 16….you reap what you sow.
Who is surprised? Hillary warned US that. Trump was Putin’s puppet during 2016 debates and America would suffer from it
Norma Alexander To be fair she also said that about Bernie Sanders and Tulsi Gabbard. Don’t forget, we got Trump because of how disliked Hillary was and still is.
Rice Crash we got trump because that’s what Putin wanted
After almost 4 years trump still thinks Americans are simple minded fools. It’s obvious that he is a Russian stooge
trump only cares about what he can get after he’s not president. he doesnt want to burn his Russian bridges
He’s going to need somewhere to go into exile
@Crime Planet when does his statute of limitations run out? I wasn’t aware of this. Interesting to know.
@Crime Planet If I was one of Trump’s enemies trying to lock him up— I wouldn’t sleep well anymore #JESUSCHRIST
He better get 4 walls know as a cell.
Of course, he needs a place to hide after the 2020 election,.👍😉
The Russian Republican Senate had the chance to remove this Traitor, and failed because of the leadership of Moscow Mitch. JUST VOTE IN NOVEMBER!!!
Trump didn’t care about the viris killing citizens, why should he care about our troops?
Exactly
He’s such a Jaws mayor
WHO is better then TRUMP in your opinion?Obama or Clinton?
@BALTAZAR GOMBKA LOL. Thats not even a question…. which President celebrated by going golfing after 120k American died?
…why we WOULD HE…because he’s incapable, without empathy and lacks any attributes associated with being human.
