Donald John “Stable Genius” Trump Sr. today posted this item via Twitter: While I had a great meeting with NATO, raising vast amounts of money, I had an even better meeting with Vladimir Putin of Russia. Sadly, it is not being reported that way – the Fake News is going Crazy!<\/em><\/p>\n

Let’s see. I need to catch my breath.<\/p>\n

There. Breath caught.<\/p>\n

I wish to to take note of something that’s been lost on the president of the United States.<\/p>\n

Many of us witnessed in real time the president’s astonishing defense of Vladimir Putin. He took the U.S. intelligence community to task for determining that Russia attacked our electoral process in 2016.<\/p>\n

There is no “reporting” necessary to tell viewers what they saw in the moment. The president groveled at Putin’s feet. He elevated the leader of a declining power to his own level as the leader of the world’s greatest nation. He gave comfort to an adversarial state.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump has the gall, the stones to lay all this on what he calls “fake news”?<\/p>\n

Mr. President, many of us watched this unfold before our eyes.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump has delivered to Americans yet another shameful demonstration of ignorance.<\/p>\n\n
