    Default Re: Trump Thread

    You may want to note that I tried not to use selective quoting, but I can prove your point wrong like that just as well:

    “As for hacking, I think it was Russian,” Trump said at a press conference in New York.

    He just tried to take it back later when he realized that it could be used against him.
    His prevous behavior indicates my interpritation; that being he's entertaining the idea of russia because he is less certain that it will turn out to not be russia and wants to cover his ass.

    I would think you would agree, you are usually the first person to refute claims that "he means what he says" after all.

    As for the allegations not being true at all, that's pretty ridiculous given that neither you nor I can definitely know the truth in that case.
    I know that no proof has emerged in the months after the allegations were made and the people who propel it as irrefutable either have vested interest in it being true or were appointed by those same people. Strong bias towards false.

    I would say thinking that it was the Russians is perfectly legitimate given that the US intelligence community said so. Whether they are always trustworthy is a different question.
    Not allways trustworthy, proven liars for whichever administration apppointed them, same thing amirte?

    there are plenty of people even in Trump's party and administration who believe just that.
    I highly doubt that. Show me one that doesnt present it with some variation of "We cant say 100% that it isnt true".

    If you say everyone is an idiot who believes that, then Trump's team of excellent people contains several idiots who were hand-picked by him.
    I say anyone who presents it as indisputable fact at this stage is either too ill informed for the position of journalist, or a liar. That Shepard Smith also proved himself a blind hypocryte through doing so is a bonus.

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.
