https://www.mediaite.com/tv/gop-sen-rob-portman-i-take-trump-at-his-word-that-he-misspoke-yesterday/So there you have it . . . This will all blow over with a Hes not a politician . . . He just misspoke.
There is nothing that the Rethugs wont take from this Orange Orangutan in order to keep control of the government . . . and he and Putin know it. What about the tape recording of Paul Ryan and others admitting that they think dRump is being paid by Putin? Why no questions directed at the GOP leadership!?! How does the press watch a fellow journalist be roughed up in front of the supposed leader of the free world and thrown out of a press conference and no journalist stood with the guy? dRump will never be held accountable - by the MSM press or the GOP hierarchy.

(79 posts)BULLSHIT! That stopped being true when he won the Republican nomination, and then most certainly when he won the election. That excuse to normalize Trump wore thin a long time ago.

(10,721 posts)He misspoke. He's not a politician. He's real. At least he's honest unlike Obama. Blah, blah, blah.

(959 posts)always has, always will. He is useless as a human being. I can say this, as an Ohioan. Portman is just reprehensible.

(2,052 posts)Stands for nothing, and has zero substance. He's a reliable rubber stamp and I can't wait until I can help defeat him at the ballot box.
Completely feckless. And I had a small amount of hope when he released the statement last night, but he ended up collapsing on his own spine and setting the world back to normal.

(10,033 posts)So when Trump takes it all back at his next rally, you will be ok with that as well. And then when the WH house clarifies his clarification, you will stand by that too, until it gets reclarified again.
WTF does Trump/Putin have on Portman??????

(12,448 posts)Both yesterday and today. He took one word out of one sentence and we're supposed to believe that the entire shitstorm while standing beside Putin just never happened. That one word was supposed to erase the rest of it?

(16,869 posts)Trump could hold a press conference in the Oval Office and announce "Yes, there was a conspiracy between my campaign and the Russians. Of course the election was hacked!" And the GOP would twist themselves into pretzels to excuse his actions.
