Why does Trump deny Russian meddling?

[martybegan]

Asked if he believed U.S. intelligence agencies, which concluded that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help him defeat Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, he said he was not convinced.

“I don’t see any reason why it would be” Russia, Trump said. “President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today.”


.

Can you show me where US agencies concluded that even if the "interference" happened, that they can definitively link it to being the reason Hillary lost?

If that was the exact question, then the question itself, barring the evidence I asked for above, is a loaded bullshit question. (begging the question to be specifically)

 

[Zander]

Given the indictments handed down last Friday detailing who, when and where the Russians actively interfered with the 2016 elections, why does Donald Trump still deny the Russians did what they clearly did?

Is it because Special Counsel Mueller handed down the indictment? Is it because, in Trump's mind, Russian meddling delegitimizes his election? Or is it because the Trump campaign acted in concert with the Russians, therefore showing collusion?

Any way you slice it, Trump's denial shows he trusts the word of Vladimir Putin over the American intelligence community and his own Department of Justice. How then can these entities then trust the president? How can we trust the president?

This is beyond partisan politics. This shakes the foundations of our electoral system and our men and women in service to our nation as they perform their duties as intelligence gathering institutions.

Trump continues to deny the fact that Russia interfered with the 2016 General Election because he believes to do so will undermine the legitimacy of his election.

Trump is a coward, like most arrogant narcissists.

Always with the term "interfered"

What exactly did they do, and was it broad enough in scope and application to actually impact the election?

Again, it's just Dems being sore losers for losing when they thought they were shoo-ins.

there is absolute proof the russians “covertly monitored the computers, implanted hundreds of files containing malicious computer code, and stole emails and other documents,” from Americans.

so stfu Russianboi -

no there isn't. you have nothing to show us that would back that. Do you?

Not proof.

When Trump was asked if he believed Putin over US Intel, Trump said he had no reason not to.

Will Republicans do anything? Will they fall in behind Trump or will they protest?

If they protest, what form will that protest take?

strzok is a traitor and obstructed justice. let's start there.

No, let's start with Trump, Putin and Russia.

This is nothing but partisan politics. It's still the flailing of sore loser leftists who lost a sure bet election.

The grand jury indicted 12 Russians for meddling….

it wasn’t mueller, the democrats, the fictional swamp or this crazy koo-koo land deep state you folks believe in.

The same tool is used to indict MS 13 gang members….

How is it partisan politics?

because if Hillary had won you wouldn't be caring about it, or trying to link it to her in some way.

Don't try to deny it.

Again, how and how much did it impact the election?

Could you answer the question? How does a grand jury indictment come off as “partisan politics”?

 

[Zander]

And that impacts things how exactly?

Intent is more important is most situations, like when Obama intended to tell Russia to keep cool until after the election, so he can do things unpopular with some of the American People.

It sends the world the message that an American President is clueless, inept and outclassed on the world stage, at a very critical time, right in front of a dangerous and opportunistic adversary.

Since we haven't been in this position in my lifetime, I don't really know how to attach a context to it. The world is worried, and so am I.

Does it matter? Fox News has no way of influencing the outcome. They will report the news, gleefully. Along with every other media outlet.

Thanks. Do you think Mac was talking about sports or home repairs?

so again, how is that at all possible? no intelligence agency has looked in the DNC server. so how the fk would they know anything about hacked information? btw, I'm laughing my ass off at you all cause there is a nothing burger. I'm hoping they come to the US and challenge the indictment.

 

[toobfreak]

After Trump's admission that he believes Putin over US intel, what will Republicans do next?

For one thing, Trump never said that. You're just a sack of lying shit as usual. But I will sit down and have a cool drink next and wonder how our deep state ever let itself be eroded so much by Leftist Doctrine and partisan hate that the question of our intelligence integrity ever even became a matter of question!

No, let's start with Trump, Putin and Russia.

but it started with Strzok so we must start there. traitor and obstructionist.

 

[candycorn]

There's really no logical or sinister explanation for that press conference.

Trump is in completely over his head, he doesn't understand context, and he said some truly dumb stuff at a very critical moment.

It's not exactly a surprise. This is precisely the kind of thing many of us were afraid of.

An uncontrollable carom into the truth!

The only truth is you morons are a bunch of cry-baby losers.

Gullible ones at that.

ahh…desperate lashing out….

Why does the right wing care so much about 12 Russians getting indicted?

so stfu Russianboi -

And that changed the result of the election how?

And also "absolute proof", lol.

it was against the laws of this country you stupid idiot ....

damn traitor MF'r

Again how does that translate to Trump being somehow involved?

and how does it translate to an actual impact on the election?

You really think the Russians/Soviets only broke into political documents in a US election for the first time in 2016?

it translates to you ignoring the fact a foreign country invaded this country, broke our laws and you dont give a shit.

so feel free to take a break and KMA. - MR PATRIOT

Not a proud day for Republicans

Republicans blast Trump meeting with Putin as 'shameful' and 'sign of weakness'

You said one thing then; you say another thing now.

Perhaps you should buy a mirror and debate yourself.

Show where he broke any law

LOL

From the ones who haven't charged Trump for going on 2 years, and all statements have been he's not under investigation for Collusion.

 

[Mac1958]

Following a day of discussions between Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, Finland, Mr. Trump left Monday's summit neglecting to hold Putin accountable for Russia's role in interfering in the 2016 presidential election -- saving most of his criticism for America itself.

"I hold both countries responsible. I think that the United States has been foolish. I think that we've all been foolish. We should have had this dialogue a long time ago, a long time, frankly, before I got to office," Mr. Trump said during a joint press conference with Putin.
