Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» Which President-Elect has ever betrayed our country more than the current one? Why is he doing this to us? What is his endgame?
Yes. Doofus Donny is the Russian version of " The Manchurian Candidate". With his pick of Rex Tillerson, CEO of Exxon, who received a FRIEND OF RUSSIA medal from Putin, you can clearly see who orchestrated this and is leading it. What I don't understand is why all AMERICANS aren't outraged and demand that Doofus Donny be the American President and not a Russian puppet. Thank you for your reply DWF and Happy Tuesday! :)
Thank you for your reply Sharonna. I disagree. Bush didn't LOVE Russia and side with Putin AGAINST his own CIA as Doofus Donny has done. Bush did not choose a secretary of state that is a FRIEND OF RUSSIA. I listed all the ways Doofus has betrayed us so far in my reply to "righty" who wanted to know HOW Doofus betrayed us. Remember Doofus is not the president yet. And see what damage he has already done? Once in office do you really think he will change or will he accelerate and continue on with his selling America out to Russia? I'm serious. :(

Hi, Rosie. Nothing beats this jerk. NOTHING. Bush was a traitor. But TRUMP? He is going to take us down a dark path that I don't want to be privy to.
Bush? I am thinking about 911 and how he tried to foist that travesty upon Saddam Hussein when he knew Obama had something to do with it because his family was in bed with the Bin Laddins. They were in cahoots with the oil deal and Bush did not want to upset that nice partnership. So, Hussein was the perfect foil.

Okay. You are absolutely correct. You see. How could a blatant moron betray me? Like I can't see moron when it stares me in the face and opens its moron mouth spouting that the enemy is "over there" and Mexicans are dispensable, especially those rapist/murderer/drug dealer ones that sneak in here that we have to build a wall to keep out. And that tape? You know the one Billy Bush has of Trump bragging that he owns the women in the Ms. USA contest or whatever he represented? When he bragged about grabbing their tits and asses and crotches? Trump? The Champ? He still got elected because of sheep like you chanting that he is a champ.
Doofus Donny has never criticized Putin. He always compliments him and defends him. Doofus Donny says he does not believe the CIA findings that Russia hacked the Dems Files and leaked the information purposely to help Doofus win. Doofus Donny selected Rex Tillerson, CEO of EXXON, to be Secretary of State. Putin awarded Tillerson a FRIEND OF RUSSIA medal. Doofus Donny attacks a government agency of his own country and says they are not believable and every chance he gets he sucks up to Putin. Putin is a murderous despotic person. He invaded Crimea and wants to invade and take back all of Ukraine. He knows Doofus Donny won't try stop him. Doofus Donny selected Steve Bannon as Chief of Staff. An ALT RIGHT WHITE racist. Doofus selected General Flynn for some post. Flynn and his son were involved in the wacky insane conspiracy theory that a pizzeria was the center of a child porn ring involving Hillary Clinton. The Flynn son was fired from the Doofus transition team for that crap but Flynn was not fired. Doofus selected Betsy DeVos as head of Education. She is a billionaire and likes vouchers and despises public schools. Doofus selected as head of the labor department someone who prefers robots to humans because they never complain, are never late, never take vacations, never sue, never cause problems. His HUD secretary is a retired brain surgeon who knows NOTHING about the job, how to do it. Doofus selected Mike Pence who is very anti-LGBT . Doofus selected a guy for health and human services who is anti-birth control and family planning. If you didn't know any of that righty now you do. Did I answer your question? Thank you and Happy Tuesday to you.

You think he's a moron. That's fine. I don't like the guy as a person myself, tbh. He can be a jerk. He's an ego maniac, yeah. Of course he is. But I'm not going to base everything on somebody's personality, and whether I like them as a person, or not. He's not a guy I would like in my circle of friends, he isn't a guy I would want to have a beer with, and I think I would feel uncomfortable and uneasy if I was to be around him. But he is a guy who I would want to be running my business, he is a guy who can make great deals and good decisions, he is a guy I would trust to make a lot of money, and he is a guy I think will be a great leader of a country.
He's right about sending the dangerous illegals back. Why would you want rapists, murderers and drug dealers? We've got enough criminal American citizens who do that already. But, unfortunately, you can't send them anywhere, except to prison. We've got to go after the bad ones first. Anyone who's legally documented is welcome to stay. And all of this talk about Trump wanting to deport everybody is BS!!!! He hates all foreigners is BS!! He hates minorities is BS!! He's the next Hitler is BS!! He's got his finger on the nuclear trigger is BS!! All this paranoid talk is fear mongering, all coming from the liberal fear train. It's designed specifically to get people scared, so they can use them to vote for who they want them to vote for.
As for the tape, he was just joking around with Billy Bush. That's guy banter. I hear conversations like that all of the time. No big deal.
Re: 'But he is a guy who I would want to be running my business, he is a guy who can make great deals and good decisions, he is a guy I would trust to make a lot of money, and he is a guy I think will be a great leader of a country. "
What is interesting is you have little to no empirical evidence for any of the above.
Most of Trump's purported wealth is in his "brand", which accounting principles allow him to value at any number he chooses.
For all his supposed business acumen, the evidence suggests if he had simply taken his inheritance and shoved it in a broad equities market portfolio, he'd be much wealthier today than by engaging in all of his business ventures.
So, your inference that he'll be a great leader for the USA is either blind faith, or based upon false premises you have either not investigated or are deliberately ignoring because you want to believe what you want to believe.
(Note: with respect to the original question, I don't believe Der Pumpkinfuhrer has "betrayed" the USA in any substantial way. I think he'll turn out to be an awful President with ridculously misguided policies, but that doesn't in and of itself constitute betrayal)
What's up! Glad you are still speaking your mind. Even if it's something I don't understand.

He's not ever going to betray me, because I have absolutely no faith in him and did not, will not, ever vote for him! I presume that he's already betrayed many of his supporters, with some of his appointees. Of course, none of the Trumpites will say this, not now, and likely not ever.
Have you signed any of the petitions, Rosie? Called or written you representatives? I hold out almost no hope that this thing can be turned around, but I'm doing the small and probably pointless things that I CAN do. That's really all that any of us "little people" can ever do, but we still should do it!
I did. Jim and I both signed petitions SA. A few weeks ago I looked up "Overturning the electoral College" and I got a lot of sites and I clicked on the one about the petition and we signed it. He HAS betrayed you m'dear. He never criticizes Putin. He said he does not believe the CIA findings that Russia was involved in hacking and leaking Dem files to Wikileaks. Doofus Donny is the Russian version of The Manuchurian Candidate. When Doofus selected Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State (CEO of Exxon) that nailed the coffin. Tillerson received a FRIEND OF RUSSIA award and does big business with Russia. So now you have this unholy threesome of Doofus Donny, Friend of Russia Tillerson and Putin. Doofus is selling us up the river. He sides with a Russian murderous despot and attacks his own country. How is that not a gross betrayal? He is supposed protect America. I see no evidence that he in interested in doing that. He talks but his actions belie the talk. Thank you for your reply and Happy Tuesday! :)
I take your point. I'm sure he will betray this country, with his horrifying appointments and sleazy dealings with Putin and who knows who else. But, as I said, I have always and will likely always think him to be untrustworthy and the butt of every conceivable joke. To be honest, it's those who voted for him who I feel a bit betrayed by... those who I know and care for, and who I thought knew better. :(
Hope your Tuesday was as happy as mine! Thanks, Rosie!
You know SA my sister's best friend since kindergarten (my sister will be 72 tomorrow) is a Conservative. They finally agreed to stop talking politics because they are so far apart on the value of PET. Everyone I know faces the same quandry. And it is puzzling to me how anyone can see any positive value in PET or his appointees. It's scary how many of them there are. Thank you for your reply and Happy Wednesday! :)
