Do you really believe Russia put bounties on our soldiers and Marines?

I’m just not buying that blatant lie. To what benefit would Putin get out of loving our Special Forces troops being killed? I’m Not going to fall for this absurd lie anymore. The cold war is over man and I can’t wait for these worthless baby boomers to finally die out so that cold war bullshite will finally go away. My enemies are inside this country not outside of it. This is all just a lie for the news media to try to make President Trump look bad. If Susan Rice becomes our vice president I’m gonna really get upset man. And then I’m gonna complain on the Internet about it I promise. They better not make me complain on the Internet.

There is no benefit to Russia.

And even if there were the Taliban has been doing it for free for 19 years.

Anyone who thinks Trump would just sit back and ignore it if actionable, confirmed intelligence was available is just plain lying to themselves and projecting whatever evil façade they want onto DJT.

That is a fact

I'll never put it past Russia, China or the middle East to do anything underhanded to get a rise out of America. There is nothing to trust in those countries. But if there isn't any evidence, then they should STFU.

DTG, I never said Russia is our friend and I also know that the Russians are the biggest liars on the face of the earth. Every word that comes out of Putin or any other Russian politicians mouth is a blatant lie. I’m not saying the Russians aren’t bad guys it’s just I’m not buying it that they are our enemies out there trying to kill our troops. It is bullshite and all items is is the news media trying to make Trump look bad. If Rodham was the president right now they wouldn’t be saying that crap.

Iran did it while in Iraq. I don’t see anyone on the left upset about that.

It’s possible.

Russia is not our friend despite Obama pledging more “flexibility” to Putin. And Trump is not Putin’s friend after killing hundreds of Russian mercenaries in Syria.

But until it’s proven, we should not escalate. This is just another reason not to vote Democrat. FOR THE CHILDREN!

I didn't see so much cheerleading but I did see the recognition of some common ground, like the alphabet people suffering from a mental disorder.

The same can be said of the Pentagon. So I call it even.

This. Now ask me if Iran was doing this? Ask me if Iran was directly responsible for the death of thousands of American troops? The answer is yes...BTW, it's Iran, the same nation Barry gave $150 billion in cash.

I could see it. I’d think it’s possible that it was done at a lower level, in the field, so to speak, by some merc mother frickers who got the red arse about something.

Less likely that it was ordered by the Kremlin.

Most likely that it was bad intel or agitprop intended to get the Trump haters to bite hard on fake bait.

And I’ll never put it past the wholly corrupt and deeply embedded entities in our national security apparatus to tripwire WWIII to maintain their death-grip on power.

Again, the biggest threat to my personal liberty lies not in Moscow, Beijing or Tehran; it lies hidden deep within the corridors of power in Washington D.C.

I imagine you were a cheerleader for Russia when it was a communist state. I imagine you found it so clever and hilarious when Obozo responded to MR's assertion that Russia was the biggest geopolitical threat in the world with "The 80s called, they want their foreign policy back."

I don't know if they did or not. I do know that we did in the 80's the more Russians the mujaheddin killed, the more Stinger missiles and armaments we would provide to them.

So it would not surprise me if they were doing something indirectly.
