Despite Trump’s claim that “few people knew” Papadopoulos, he himself referred to Papadopoulos as an “excellent guy” in an interview with the Washington Post in March 2016 about his new foreign policy team.

So you are asserting here that Trump is lying about Papadopoulos being a great guy?
Cling to it.

Here's a picture of them meeting:

So you guys want to believe the Nunes memo (which he didn't actually see the FISA application).

You want to put your money behind this guy?

Edit: Picture wouldn't work for some reason.


You're literally inferring that every person sitting at that table with Trump was talking about how they were going to collude with Russia to steal the election.

That's the only time Trump and Papadopoulos are known to have been in the same room together.

So this must have been the super secret big bad conspiracy collusion meeting to end all meetings, right?

You’re an idiot. Anyone with half a brain knows there is a difference in meeting someone and meeting with someone. For example, chances are you’ve probably met the CEO of your company. However, you’ve probably never sat down and met with the CEO of the company. One is informal and the other is a formal meeting where business is discussed. Using your logic, the guy responsible for serving the coffee in your pics also met with President Trump.


If I worked in my company's security department and sat at the same table with my CEO discussing company security and participating in a security discussion with the CEO then Yes, I've met with my CEO.

That's what happened here.

That picture is dated 3/31/16....so it’s either a fake, or the wrong date. He wasn’t elected president until 11/2016.

What I am asserting is that Trump may have been aware of Papadopoulus's efforts on his behalf. Pap could have been singled out to Trump by another and Trump made the effort and extended the kindness to speak well of him.

The remark does not indicate that they met at any point.

No, this isn't about collusion or conspiracy. It's about facts and Nunes' blatant disregard for them and therefore his credibility being seriously diminished.

Are you new to this? You didn't link to a Washington Post article, and the article you did link makes no mention of your claim.

It’s the only time they’ve been caught by camera. And without the shot, they’d probably still be lying about it. Hell Nunes still is

Seriously, if you've been reduced to this level of attack you've already lost.

I don't know about you, but I've never "met with" anybody with 10+ people in the same meeting.

If your CEO ever finds out about the dumb shite you post on this board you'd be fired on the spot.

Ignore the accusation of dishonesty, and just take this statement and compare it to the pic that has been widely circulated since the Papadopolous indictment was announced. At the very least, Nunes and his staff do very poor research if he/they overlooked this pic and made the statement that he did.

Nunes didn't solely author the memo, you blithering retard.

You idiots keep going, "Nunes didn't even read the FISA warrant!" and then ignoring the fact that the other 3 people, including Gowdy, all did see the warrant and they contributed to the memo as much as or even more than Nunes did.

This is called being intellectually dishonest.

Why would you keep laying the entire concept of credibility on Nunes when you know 4 people contributed to writing it?

You are a dishonest hack, that's why.

maybe you can recall every single person that you have ever sat at a table with in your entire life. And I am sure that you are so important that you meet with that many people.

I cannot remember all of the names of people that I have met. But then again, you are smawt.....
