If you look at Trump's actions in that context, what he says and what he does aren't so strange. His strategy should be clear by now to all those except those (unfortunately many) who deliberately don't want to understand it.

JUST PUBLISHED> Putin Summit May Prove to Be Trump's Finest Hour https://t.co/AD2edpO2St #RogerLSimon via @pjmedia_com

What? Did you just read that headline correctly?

Yes, you did....

Barack Obama -- although the New York Times would burn down its own building rather than admit it -- did an abysmal job with Putin and was indeed the one who was truly "owned" by the Russian. And it wasn't just the silly reset button and the embarrassing video of Barack whispering into Medvedev's ear to tell Vlad he -- Barack -- would be more flexible on missiles after the election. (What a toady!) Even worse, in his Chamberlainesque ardor to make a deal with Iran's mullahs, Obama let Putin play him in Syria, agreeing not to honor his redline against Assad's use of chemical weapons in order not to endanger the deal. Trump never did anything nearly that pathetic. Actually, he stands up strong.

But the David Gergens of the world yammer on that Trump is doing everything wrong. He's certainly doing some things wrong -- we all do -- but being gracious to Putin personally while actively opposing what the Russian does in his actions, may be exactly the way to get results. But Trump's opponents don't care about results. Overwhelmed with hate, they would prefer to see the president wounded and impeached than succeed with Putin and bring about a world safer from nuclear armageddon. If Trump achieves this, however, it will be his finest hour. It would be for any president.

Hacking indictment suspiciously tells only one half of Moscow meddling story

Putin hacking the Republican Campaign doesn't fit the narrative. So Mueller and Rosenstein censored that evidence in their latest Russian indictment, and in the recent Nunes report on Russian interference in the election

First the FBI & DOJ relied on a Clinton contractor (CrowdStrike) to provide research to blame Russia for hacking Clinton, then they relied on another Clinton contractor (Fusion GPS) to obtain a warrant to spy on Trump campaign to frame it for colluding w Russia. Notice a pattern?

— Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) July 18, 2018

The FBI & DOJ agreed to not issue warrants to the DNC or Clinton campaign to search computer devices in the Russia hacking probe, just like they agreed to not issue warrants to Clinton and her aides to search their devices in the email espionage probe.

Mueller indictment fails to support Brennan's ICA in 2 key ways:

1) ICA claims both GRU & FSB behind cyberattacks, whereas Mueller only names GRU

2) ICA claims motive for Russian attack was to "help Trump win," whereas Mueller says objective was simply to interfere in election.

— Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) July 18, 2018

Without the DNC and DCCC servers -- or "the 10 DCCC computers and 33 DNC computers" the GRU allegedly gained access to--Mueller is not able to present physical evidence in court to prove a crime even occurred. Where is the underlying evidence? His indictment is a political farce

Never forget, John Brennan is the puppet master of #SpyGate. Christopher Steele, Stef Halper, Nellie Ohr, Peter Strzok, as well as Mueller's Russian hacking & trolling indictments, all tie back to him. He's also the one who fed "collusion" dirt to Dem minority on intel committees

Chilling emails show Rod Rosenstein threatened to personally target Republican lawmakers with Subpoenas and Deep State wiretaps

Wow! Chilling emails show Rod Rosenstein threatened to personally target Republican lawmakers with Subpoenas and Deep State wiretaps https://t.co/S2XsLkyhWq

— Jacob Wohl (@JacobAWohl) June 12, 2018

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein threatened to “subpoena” emails, phone records and other documents from lawmakers and staff on a Republican-led House committee during a tense meeting earlier this year, according to emails reviewed by Fox News documenting the encounter and reflecting what aides described as a "personal attack."

The emails memorialized a January 2018 closed-door meeting involving senior FBI and Justice Department officials as well as members of the House Intelligence Committee. The account claimed Rosenstein threatened to turn the tables on the committee's inquiries regarding the Russia probe.

“The DAG [Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein] criticized the Committee for sending our requests in writing and was further critical of the Committee’s request to have DOJ/FBI do the same when responding,” the committee's then-senior counsel for counterterrorism Kash Patel wrote to the House Office of General Counsel. “Going so far as to say that if the Committee likes being litigators, then ‘we [DOJ] too [are] litigators, and we will subpoena your records and your emails,’ referring to HPSCI [House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence] and Congress overall.”...

...But let's skip past the subplots of the moment to the greatest of all unintended consequences of this endless investigation -- the decline and fall of the Democratic Party.

Yes, you read that correctly. Like a crackhead addicted to the next puff, Democrats and their media allies have spent most of the last sixteen months fixated on whether Trump somehow, some way, colluded with Putin. Meanwhile, a zillion issues slipped by, some important, others less so, but the Democrats barely weighed in on anything, other than to whine about Trump.

What a dumb mistake....

Talk to Mueller? No, Trump Should Use His Bully Pulpit to Expose Mueller's Corruption

Kurt Schlichter - Talk to Mueller? No, Trump Should Use His Bully Pulpit to Expose Mueller's Corruption https://t.co/3O3Fk5FMyn

— TheLastRefuge (@TheLastRefuge2) April 12, 2018

There is no way to sugarcoat it – especially after the lawless invasion of the attorney-client privilege by fancy-suited thugs, if President Donald Trump sits down and talks to Robert Mueller and his pack of Democrat donor corruptocrats, he’s an idiot.

Instead, he needs to take his case to the people – because a blind man can see that he’s being framed....


Donald Trump is their target, though they absolutely and unequivocally know he committed no crime. They don’t care.

It’s not the truth that Donald Trump has to worry about. It’s the lies. Mueller and his pack of Hillary hitmen will not hesitate, not for a second, to manufacture a crime if that’s what it takes....

This is not a game. And this is more than about just one man. These kangaroo court shenanigans are designed to use fear of prosecution to permanently lock out of office anyone the elite disapproves of – and to lock in their unchallenged, unquestioned control of the reins of power. The potential consequences are much worse than just impeachment – this kind of attack on the rule of law is at the top of a slippery slope that can end with a nation split apart and even embroiled in civil conflict. Liberals are already fantasizing about winning a new “civil war.”

It’s time to get serious. There’s no upside to playing footsie with these demonstrably partisan prosecutors. Trump is never, ever going to convince Mueller and his mob that he should be exonerated. That will never happen....

Don't fire Mueller. Talk about him. https://t.co/DOZXRcuI1Y

...As it turns out, reports today say that Twitter’s internal analysis found that it was mostly Americans, not creepy Slavic mind-control robots, who were behind the hashtags. Not that it really matters, anyway. If a group of Americans have a legitimate issue to rally around, how are they supposed to control what outsiders do? It’s not as if #ReleaseTheMemo was a secret or illegal. Republican politicians were openly using it.

Yet, if Feinstein and Schiff had their way, Twitter and Facebook would have moved to quash the #ReleaseTheMemo hashtag for what turned out to be apparently solely partisan reasons. Sounds like a power that can be abused. Even if the two had been genuinely troubled by Russian hashtags — yes, suspend your disbelief — the source of fake news is not always easily discernible. Sometimes it comes to you from an anonymous Russian bot, and sometimes it’s retweeted by a prominent journalist....

A CNN reporter admitted on Sunday that her network’s obsession with Russia is out of touch with most of the American public.
