Trump Now Claims He Believes American Intelligence on Russia. Trump is Also a Lying-Ass Liar

The biggest problem with having a habitual liar in the highest office in the land is that a habitual liar is in the highest office in the land.

The biggest problem with having a habitual liar in the highest office in the land is that a habitual liar is in the highest office in the land. On Monday, during a press conference with Russian president and resident Russian thug with the passcode to Americaโ€™s wifi, Vladimir Putin, Trump stood on a global stage and said exactly what he felt.

Trump’s Tariffs Might Stick Around. What Should We Buy Now?

When Trump was asked who he believed, Russia or U.S. intelligence when is comes to election interference in the 2016 election and whether heโ€™d warn Putin never to do it again, the president of the United States sided with Russia. Below is the presidentโ€™s unedited response to the question.

So let me just say that we have two thoughts. You have groups that are wondering why the FBI never took the server. Why havenโ€™t they taken the server? Why was the FBI told to leave the office of the Democratic National Committee? Iโ€™ve been wondering that. Iโ€™ve been asking that for months and months, and Iโ€™ve been tweeting it out and calling it out on social media. Where is the server? I want to know, where is the server? And what is the server saying?

With that being said, all I can do is ask the question. My people came to me โ€” Dan Coats came to me and some others โ€” they said they think itโ€™s Russia. I have President Putin; he just said itโ€™s not Russia.

I will say this: I donโ€™t see any reason why it would be, but I really do want to see the server. But I have โ€” I have confidence in both parties. I really believe that this will probably go on for a while, but I donโ€™t think it can go on without finding out what happened to the server. What happened to the servers of the Pakistani gentleman that worked on the DNC? Where are those servers? Theyโ€™re missing. Where are they? What happened to Hillary Clintonโ€™s emails? Thirty-three thousand emails gone โ€” just gone. I think, in Russia, they wouldnโ€™t be gone so easily. I think itโ€™s a disgrace that we canโ€™t get Hillary Clintonโ€™s 33,000 emails.

So I have great confidence in my intelligence people, but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today. And what he did is an incredible offer; he offered to have the people working on the case come and work with their investigators with respect to the 12 people. I think thatโ€™s an incredible offer. Okay? Thank you.

Now the president is backtracking most of that, and not because he doesnโ€™t believe it, but because the fallout has been damaging to his disastrous presidency and he couldnโ€™t even do that correctly.

On Tuesday, Trump claimed that he misspoke but still refused to put the blame on Russia.

โ€œI accept our intelligence communityโ€™s conclusion that Russiaโ€™s meddling in the 2016 election took place,โ€ Trump said, reading from a prepared statement in front of reporters at the White House, The Hill reports.

Because Trump couldnโ€™t leave well enough alone and because he always has to go off script, he added: โ€œCould be other people also. A lot of people out there.โ€

If all of this isnโ€™t confusing enough, Trump now claims that he meant to say that he sees no reason why Russia wouldnโ€™t be responsible for interfering in the 2016 election. Except on Monday, in front of the bully and the nation, Trump said the exact opposite, in short, throwing American intelligence agencies under the bus.

โ€œIt should have been obvious,โ€ he added. โ€œSo you can put that in and I think that probably clarifies things.โ€

Should it have been? In fact, I donโ€™t know if itโ€™s obvious now. The president currently has a shirtless calendar of Putin on his desk, but heโ€™d like America to believe that what he really meant was to be tough on Putin.

Yeah, right. In the words of Beyoncรฉโ€™s husband โ€œWe donโ€™t believe you, you need more people.โ€

The president is a liar. That is a fact. And he will say anything to get what he wants. And, this is what happens when 53 percent of white women voters vote for a spineless coward whoโ€™s smitten with a Russian gangster.
