Trump tells NBC to stop covering Russia story
Source: The Hill
President Trump on Saturday called for NBC News to devote more attention to his unproven claims that President Obama spied on him and stop covering the investigations into Russias interference in the election.
When will Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd and @NBCNews start talking about the Obama SURVEILLANCE SCANDAL and stop with the Fake Trump/Russia story? Trump tweeted just before 9 a.m.
It is the same Fake News Media that said there is no path to victory for Trump that is now pushing the phony Russia story. A total scam! he added shortly after.
* * *
FBI Director James Comey says he knows of no information validating Trumps accusation. Trump has stood by the allegations, and the White House has said the comment refers to the Obama administrations surveillance activities more broadly.

(Somebody here on DU once challenged us to come up with a more "polite" phrasing of "go f*ck yourself," so I twiddled with it and came up with that line. Nobody ever really picked up on it, but I still use it once in a while. "Tinyhands" just kinda popped into my head a couple days ago. I'm liking that more and more! )

turbinetree
(24,703 posts)and why the media isn't running this is just amazing----------------they keep trying to normalize that behavior, they have now moved on to issue if he and his team is a traitor----------------duh, what is there number one clue-------------The Bank of Cyprus and the yahoo that is his Sec of Commerce, 2+2 = 4 in this movie. And this sexual predator is trying to make the movie as 2+2=5
Just maybe some or a lot of human beings are offended that someone occupying a house, is what he is a goddamn sexual predator and a traitor. He has or had a NSC member removed from his seat because of his foreign ties, and another ass**** had to recuse himself for LYING. Almost everyone in his cabinet is a LIAR---------------amazing.
I have not seen maybe you have but I haven't seen one piece of the brief history of this so called fiasco being put on the air, to fully explain, how dangerous this "team" really is, know one knows if up is trying to be made to look like its down or vice or versa
And finally they (the media) should have said do you trust this man and then show the video, and they should not have given him any interviews nothing. Then do it again, and again
He is a sexual predator in chief

(5,730 posts)-in-Chief, today, walked out of a signing meeting when Michael Flynn's name was mentioned. The title should be used to describe whatever else the Sexual Predator in Chief is destroying at the moment...at the least on the comedy and late night channels. It would catch on.

Putins having fits
Have you seen the well to do
Up and down Park Avenue
Melania's nose is in the air
Trying real hard not to care
Fourth floors with lots of fallers
Golf trips cost lots of dollars
Wasting every dime

... President Trump's approval rating is stuck in the 30s and 40s. His health-care effort failed. The travel ban is tied up in courts. Congress and the FBI are investigating his campaign's possible links to Russia. He's calling out fellow Republicans for failing to help him on health care. His White House tried to cover up (for a while at least) his aides providing information to House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes. And now his ousted national security adviser says he'll cooperate with the FBI and Congress in exchange for immunity.

They knew about Trump's connection to Putin and the Russian Mafia for at least a year.
Maybe longer, but they nominated him anyway. So what does that tell you about the GOP?
I say impeach them all and destroy the Republican Party, for good.
We can't let these a-holes off the hook now. Then they'll keep on doing this.

For the hard core ignorant trumpsters, it's worked. They don't watch real news anyway.
For many, it's elevated the newspapers or stations.
Just another example, he believes he's a dictator.

btw: We will be bugging him for his tax return much longer than he bugged Obama for his birth certificate.

(37,648 posts)looking cool is hard for Trump, but he's trying. It's not working. He looks 10 years older than in November, his scowl is deeper and longer, the bags under his eyes have grown. He's saying weirder and weirder things.
The walls are closing on.
But don't expect him to resign. People like him never resign, never admit fault, and go to their graves denying everything and blaming others for wrong deeds or persecution.
DallasNE
(7,403 posts)It is a distinction without a difference. There is still no information validating Trump's accusation even if it is broadened to Obama administration surveillance activities. Yes, there was surveillance of the Russians under court supervision but none of Trump's team was under direct surveillance so Trump is still wrong. Wildly wrong.

Sunlei
(22,651 posts)Major networks need to report more off official government record on the Russia issue. Networks need to place much less emphasis on personal opinion tweets, tabloid news and other propaganda/fake issues intended to muddy the investigations. Press has to push the issue with direct questions to trump spokesman Spicer & everyone else they can question. If they won't answer questions, report that!
Like Obama admin told the press corp, its up to YOU to ask questions. Don't let them silence Americas free press.
FakeNoose
(32,639 posts)... Actually they should just ignore all tweets and be done with it.
Tweets aren't news, and the President can't use tweeting to avoid contact with the legitimate news media.
As long as the news media continue to report tweets like they're news, they're letting him off the hook.
This nonsense has to stop. Make Trump show up at press conferences and answer their f*cking questions.
