Trumps the one whos playing.

But it's getting harder for him to dance between the raindrops.

God only knows what's going to come out about the Man or his mouth next? LoL

Fact is Trump doesn't seem to know his arse from his elbow with regards to much.

As to unsupported by facts i think you may find that's the fellows bread and butter.

Trump loves those in spades.

Yeah, right.
Your argument is blown out of the water, so you revert to 'Trump bad'.
Pathetic.
How about just admitting you jumped too quick and reversing course. No shame in that - a lot less than entrenching yourself in stupidity.

Speaking of dying i direct you towards your POTUS career.

No worries indeed, as Trump don't even know what he's going to do with 4 more years in life nevermind office, or so it seems.

a reply to: UKTruth

Trump is bad.

And the argument is apparent.

The only thing about to be blown out the water is Trump and his crew.

So yeh, right. x

Nice pile of gobbledygook.
It is what you are reduced to.
Meaningless babble.

a reply to: shooterbrody

It's not so much my gobbledygook nor babble that's important.

Trumps the master of that universe, and it doesn't look like he has the power to utter anything other than pathetic excuses.

Just one after the other.

At least hes consistent i suppose.

The Trump administration has been deliberating for months about what to do about a stunning intelligence assessment.

LINK

WASHINGTON — American intelligence officials have concluded that a Russian military intelligence unit secretly offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for killing coalition forces in Afghanistan — including targeting American troops — amid the peace talks to end the long-running war there, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The United States concluded months ago that the Russian unit, which has been linked to assassination attempts and other covert operations in Europe intended to destabilize the West or take revenge on turncoats, had covertly offered rewards for successful attacks last year.

Islamist militants, or armed criminal elements closely associated with them, are believed to have collected some bounty money, the officials said. Twenty Americans were killed in combat in Afghanistan in 2019, but it was not clear which killings were under suspicion.

The intelligence finding was briefed to President Trump, and the White House’s National Security Council discussed the problem at an interagency meeting in late March, the officials said. Officials developed a menu of potential options — starting with making a diplomatic complaint to Moscow and a demand that it stop, along with an escalating series of sanctions and other possible responses, but the White House has yet to authorize any step, the officials said.

Interesting story and very ugly for our troops.

If true then this should be dealt with.

If Iran did that they would be ready for retaliation.

Do you remember what the US position was when the Russians were fighting Afghanistan? Do you think we were helping Afghanistan fight the Russians? Google is your friend.

www.history.com...
"The mujahidin employed guerrilla tactics against the Soviets. They would attack or raid quickly, then disappear into the mountains, causing great destruction without pitched battles. The fighters used whatever weapons they could grab from the Soviets or were given by the United States.

The tide of the war turned with the 1987 introduction of U.S. shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles. The Stingers allowed the mujahidin to shoot down Soviet planes and helicopters on a regular basis."

The fake outrage from the left is LOL funny.

Trump and Putin are still pals. That's the reason trump can't remember being briefed about the bounty on US military.

Are they though?

I'm sure Trump believes that they are. So long as he lives up to certain expectations

Putin already had national worries of his own. Nobody (unless you believe in conspiracy theory) saw the pandemic coming

Things change. It's for reals chaos now - time to cut your losses and reassess

No
It is because he was not briefed because it was bs.

Haven't you had enough of bs made up rushia dossiers?

Haven't you had enough of BS fake POTUS made up with nobody but himself?

Nope, i suppose not.

The truth is Trump could take a crap on your front rug, impregnated your 16-year-old daughter, and then molest your dog, and you lot would say thank you very much Mr Trump, well done.

More "sources"
Like the pee dossier, you will be all wet.

Rushia, Rushia, Rushia

Impressive list of insults.
One would think you speak from first hand experience.

"Sources" have been less than honest in the recent past.
Believe what you like.

a reply to: shooterbrody

Naw mate i don't know the first thing about being a BS fake POTUS.

Just what i see/read Trump do on TV/Twitter and the like. x

As to experience, well i like to think i can spot a complete and utter bastard when i see one.

And trump ticks that box in spades with a bit more than just his big black magic sharpie.

I will believe what i see ta very much.

And to date, that's just Trump making an arse of himself whilst spouting diarrhea.

a reply to: andy06shake
Ah a true believer.
Keep on watching that magic picture box.
Lol

a reply to: shooterbrody

Just out of curiosity, but are you, not also using a wee magic picture box to facilitate our debate right now?

Other news outlets like the Wall Street Journal, Sky News, NBC, and others have also confirmed the veracity of this story.

Only Trump's side and the Russians and their propaganda super lefty agents deny it.

a reply to: andy06shake
What is funny to me is that you watch trump on tv.
Lol
Did you lose the remote? Or by choice?
Lol
Bet it is by choice.

a reply to: andy06shake

and then molest your dog

The way it goes, maybe he would complain about the dog!
