Wow, I'm shocked, SHOCKED that Trump buddy buddy Joe Scarborough is claiming this story is false.

You're an idiot then. Joe is hardly a Trump fan and his wife certainly isn't - and either is the rest of the panel all saying the same thing. MSNBCis the most liberal of all the major three cable news networks and even they're calling bullshit

His wife?

CNN has reviewed a 35-page compilation of the memos, from which the two-page synopsis was drawn. The memos originated as opposition research, first commissioned by anti-Trump Republicans, and later by Democrats.

From this article:

Some of the memos were circulating as far back as last summer. What has changed since then is that US intelligence agencies have now checked out the former British intelligence operative and his vast network throughout Europe and find him and his sources to be credible enough to include some of the information in the presentations to the President and President-elect a few days ago.

In other words, they have created their own Assange. This is hilariously obvious

PP is too sane for this thread!

Well, if you put him as the fascist figure, it's not a bad comparison to Germany in the early 1930s. He's just off by a few years and a little self-insight.

LOL ...Melania's decision not to move to WH just yet make even more sense now...she probably figured no point moving twice in 2 years...

Do you even remotely believe that's true? First of all it's Preibus. Second of all someone who travels as much as Trump would have long ago filled up a passport that bore proof of travel to Russia in 2013. Maybe his current one doesn't have a Russia stamp. It's literally not possible he has never ever gone.

My sister's passport doesn't show that she's been to Israel, but she has. She was issued a new passport before she joined the Peace Corps in an Arab country so they would not see the Israeli stamps. It's not that hard.

But hey, maybe he never has been to Russia -- not like he would have gone there for the culture or history, he's not that kind of guy. But given the various business deals he's attempted there over the years it surprises me that he would not have checked it out in person at least once.

MSNBC has moved in to Sessions now. This is after about 10 minutes of bashing CNN for releasing possible bad information. They're saying Brokaw and others had this info too and never released it because they thought it was BS.

Credible doesn't mean it's true, just like not every reported bomb threat is real. But if it's credible enough to get checked out -- ie not obviously some 8 year old prank calling -- then it's irresponsible not to check it out. Likewise this. A lot of it may well not be true, but Trump's response is telling. A more measured, classy guy would simply say "these allegations are not true and when they are fully investigated that will be shown." Instead he rants and raves like a lunatic.

Why is it literally not possible?

Because there are videos and photos of him in Russia?

Never? Trump said he's never ever been to Russia or to Eastern Europe?

He was at his pageant in Moscow. There is video.

Well then, msnbc is being inaccurate that you sent it

Republicans better pick a side now because this is going to take everybody down. Maybe not just now, but soon.

I meant to say CNN has enough clout to where if they run the story, other news agencies will also pick it up
