    Your life appears disappointing from the outside.

    It's an incredibly irresponsible thing to say, not the least of which considering that it's a felony, but I think it's safe to say that he doesn't consider the DNC to be "us" and that his rhetoric is aimed at exciting his Juggalo following.

    I hope you don't think it unfair that I hold the Clinton campaign and the DNC to a higher standard of accountability.

    Edit: I'll also add that I always cringe when I read the words "presser" or "ouster." It's totally a style preference, but it always make me think of Maureen Dowd trying to sound like what she thinks smart people write (and don't). When I worked as an editor, I always tried to amend style guides to keep writers from using them, because they all seem to love doing it.

    He asked Russia to find Hillary's "missing emails" from her time as Secretary of State of the United States of America, where, I suppose he presumes Benghazi smoking guns and Obama's Kenyan birth certificate are buried.

    That is directly encouraging and inciting espionage against us, us being the United States.

    Further, even if it were "just" encouraging foreign states to commit crimes against a private citizen or a major political party....it's still, you know...outrageously wrong on so many levels for a presidential candidae or any citizen to seriously suggest this.

    this is probably a good theory. It would explain a lot and would also give me hope that no one is unintentionally this stupid.

    I don't think he really believes any of those things are there to be found -- he just benefits from saying it to teh prolez.

    It would be just as wrong and just as illegal if he was encouraging them to compromise Kylie Jenner's tumblr account -- it's still a felony and not a thing to casually joke about.

    I'm not sure what it is you are trying to convince me that I haven't already agreed with other than that the bar is so low already. It's hard for me to take the rantings of a Birther seriously and even George W Bush is staying far, far away from him and his insane statements.

    The emails exposed nothing illegal at all. Nothing illegal from the DNC, and nothing illegal from Hillary.

    You need to get the facts straight.

    Dude, DEFINITELY do not repost some random guy's thoughts in multiple threads. Post links to facts or opinions from people who would know more than we do. This dude you're quoting is no different from a CF poster.

    In, short...

    Oligarchs gonna oligarch. And we all know Trump's lifelong campaign to join the upper echelon of the oligarchs to prove he is more than just his daddy's heir.

    • never serve the nation in any way
    • run for president anyway
    • hire a senior campaign officer who has ties to Russia
    • announce that you will enourage Putin to invade NATO allies by not defending them unless they are paid up
    • claim that you put America first
    • Invite foreign powers to commit acts of espianage against American institutions or the American governemnt
    • Watch your supporters ingore/justify/rationalize this act of putting foreign nations ahead of the United States
