17. Me too -- and our so-called "liberal media" has been playing along with Trump's grotesque

carnival at Trump Tower while acting like the Russian infiltration of our election is just "democrats whining" and "sour grapes." Their lack of interest in what is likely one of the biggest infiltrations of our election process EVER is extremely dangerous. They are all terrified of losing Trump's favor as Trump will punish them if they dare to go after him, and this is very like the behavior of a dictator.

And then there are Putin's bizarrely close connections to Trump -- just surreal. What happened to the Republicans screaming about Russia, which was their stance for decades? Even Romney brought it up in 2012? Yet now they all act as if it is just perfectly okay that Trump has all sorts of peculiar, creepy ties to Russia AND Russia helped Trump get elected.
