65. What's weird is that he's owning the Russia scandal. Owning a losing side.

It's like he's falling right into a trap he's set for himself. What he should be doing is being outraged, just OUTRAGED, that a foreign government would cyber invade our great-again America. Meanwhile giving Puti and wink-wink friendly call and cashing in his investments with Russian oligarchs. That's how the game is played. But he does know how to play with the big boys. He thinks he's so smart only because he thinks so small.

He is trying to hide something. madaboutharry Jan 2017 #1
