Trumpy-Wumpy must be watching Fox tonight; [QUOTE=Loser Donald] Just out: The Obama Administration knew far in advance of November 8th about election meddling by Russia. Did nothing about it. WHY? [/QUOTE] I’m not sure what Lyin’ Donny (who an “extremely credible source” has told me is a very bad (or sick!) man) is even trying to say here. Does he think Obama was secretly conspiring to help him win? ---

It’s obviously a cry for help. “Why didn’t you stop me? Thanks, Obama.” ---

And now we’ll be hearing it’s FACT Obama was a terrible president for not stopping our orange hero from winning! I’m sure supporters like **Okra** would’ve stood up and cheered if Obama interfered in the election. ---

Pardon me, I speak moron. They’re not saying that Obama should have done something about it, they’re just trying to score points. What they meant to say was, “Librul hippo crates! This is yet more evidence that the LIBTARDS didn’t care about Russian interference when OBUMMER was in charge, but because HITLERY couldn’t win the election the WEENIE CRYBABIES want an investigation! This is nothing more than SOUR GRAPES! Why isn’t anyone talking about how this information LEAKED anyway?” ---

We’re outside the return window, aren’t we? Today’s lunacy: [QUOTE=Trumpie, Part 1] The real story is that President Obama did NOTHING after being informed in August about Russian meddling. With 4 months looking at Russia… [/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Orangitude, Part Deux] …under a magnifying glass, they have zero “tapes” of T people colluding. There is no collusion & no obstruction. I should be given apology! [/QUOTE] President Whiny-Child would like an apology for the Russia investigation. In other news, I am still waiting for my pony. I asked for it in 1976. I am owed! ---

Trump admits to the meddling which he spent the past year insisting did not happen, no siree. Question: As of this post, which is the one tweet he will “regret” (if he were normal, please don’t fight the hypothical 😉 ) most? Pretty strong field, that, but the Comey “tapes” tweet’s gotta be up there. Hell, we might need a Mt Rushmore of bad Trump tweets for this one… ---

So…Obama colluded with the Russians? Is that what this means? > [@](#): > > The reason that President Obama did NOTHING about Russia after being notified by the CIA of meddling is that he expected Clinton would win… > [@](#): > > …and did not want to “rock the boat.” He didn’t “choke,” he colluded or obstructed, and it did the Dems and Crooked Hillary no good. ---

> [@raventhief](#): > > So…Obama colluded with the Russians? Is that what this means? Obama colluded with the Russians to get Hillary to win but Putin is so awesome that he didn’t fall for it and now Trump wants to reward him by lifting the sanctions that loser Obama tried to punish him with. And I’m sure Sean and Sara would tell you that Trump was crystal clear about that. ---

Trumpy-wumpy is filling his feed with 40 billion Fox News mentions. You’ll be glad to know that the Democrats are the ones that colluded with the Russians. Also that the Russian thing is fake news. :smack: ---

So Trump makes up terms and then claims that’s the term people use. I’m referring to his tweet about the Washington Post, which he is now calling “The #AmazonWashingtonPost”, and then says, “sometimes referred to as the guardian of Amazon”. Who calls it the guardian of Amazon? And then goes on to say, “not paying internet taxes (which they should)” wtf is he even referring to? I didn’t know there was a tax on the Internet. > ---

To flesh out my above thought further (and with the caveat that all of the links are speculative at best): Trump declares the Washington Post an Enemy of the State Fox News, embracing their role as State-Run Media, decides to curry favor with our new overlords by trashing the WaPo and their new parent, Amazon, at every opportunity. Fox & Friends (or some of that ilk) runs a story saying Amazon doesn’t pay some tax of some sort. Trump, watching TV and lounging in bed as is his wont, sees this story and gets all excited, and assumes that this is what everyone’s talking about, and tweets accordingly. Tightly closed feedback loop. Welcome to our new dystopia. ---
