Trump-Putin 'Cyber Security Unit' like "partnering with Assad on Chemical Weapons Unit", says Rubio - Polidicks

During the meeting, Trump said he also pressed Putin about the Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. He said Putin "vehemently denied" it.[/quote] Didn't expect this coming from him.

Im sure he'll have "serious concerns" and then support every single one of trumps actions, just like McCain and Graham

I love how Trump just keeps handing the country over to the Russians at every turn.

Remember when we handed Saudi Arabia a place on the human rights council for the UN? yeah, this sounds an awful lot like that, giving the fox the keys to the hen house.

those tweets are 1/3, 2/3, 1/3

with him trying to centralise our voter data and this, we might as well hand them the keys to the pentagon. its blisteringly evident that he does not believe russia hacked our election

[QUOTE]Trump tweeted earlier that he and Putin discussed during their meeting possibly forming an "impenetrable Cyber Security unit so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded...and safe."[/QUOTE] So... he wants to protect Russia's ability to hack our elections? This sounds like he's saying that, and I honestly believe that's what he wants to do, far more than what any of his supporters might tell me he [I]"MEANT"[/I] to say.

Trumps entire narrative about the hacking seems confused and contradictory. He refuses to acknowledge Russias role which goes against everything his intelligence says, then attacks Obama for not stopping Russia, then wants to establish a joint cybersecurity unit with them. It's genuinely hard to tell if he earnestly wants to work with Putin or if he is just completely out of his depth.

Have no doubt: he can feel the pressure from the investigation into Russian meddling the 2016 election.

[QUOTE=ChadMcGoatMan;52451073]This is clearly typo - Off topic - Do you know this thread have [I]The Hill[/I] link and violates current forum rules?[/QUOTE] Marco Rubio himself is the source. Hill and CNET are generally factual and are to show his statement is newsworthy. I'm not sure if you can call to ban me just for linking to a left-center website? Info in OP doesn't rely on them.

[QUOTE=Big Dumb American]Our criteria are that a source must have a bias rating no farther than Center Left or Center Right, and that it must have a [B]High rate of factual reporting[/B]. This not only eliminates propaganda rags like Breitbart outright, but pretty neatly trims out some of the more extreme main stream sources like Fox News and Huffington Post. If your source isn't listed on this website, use your best judgment. Look at other articles on your source's site to see if an obvious trend emerges, check the "About Us" section for potential agendas or backing, or do some searches on the source in Google to try to attempt to verify its reliability.[/QUOTE]
