  • Trump pushing Russian propaganda

    Why has Trump been pushing Russian propaganda, and from where and whom is he getting this misinformation?

    http://www.alternet.org/2019/01/form...ligence-probe/

    It seems collusion of a different sort between Trump and Russia is taking place right in front of our eyes. Trump has been pushing the Russian misinformation campaign that Belarus is in danger of a Polish invasion, that Montenegro is a dangerous agressive people who could cause WW111 at the same time that a Russian coup was underway there because Montenegro was going to join NATO, a coup which was uncovered and failed, and now Trump is spreading the lie that the reason the Russians invaded Afghanistan in the 90's was because of the threat of terrorism when in fact it is well known that the reason was to prop up a communist regime there.

    And do you remember Trumps rude shoving aside a leader of a fellow NATO member country during the Nato summit? Turns out that leader that he so rudely shoved out of his way was the President of Montenegro, the very leader of the country that Trump was calling dangerous as Russia was trying to overthrow him in a failed coup.

    So, I wonder why Trump would be pushing this Russian propaganda against American allies. And where is he getting this information? Any idea's Trump supporters?

        That my irrelevant error is all you got out of it is very telling, OBP.

          Very telling indeed. Anything to take away focus...

            I thought you didn't like people attacking other posters, Charles. Why don't you focus on the content of my post instead of denigrating me?

                I already told you why. The only "content" in your post was to point to an irrelevant error.

                    Sounds like an excuse to me. Why do you imagine I'm trying to "take away focus"? Why is the error irrelevant?

                      Is it democrat propaganda, MM? I actually heard Trump, saw him making these statements. So what exactly am I pushing that is fake news/propaganda?

                        .... Trump’s brain, partly. He has no brain of his own so he has to borrow from other people that he admires.

                          That would be interesting, and could possibly implicate the NI as well. Do you know something I don't, did they actually run these stories. But even if that is where Trump picked up the story, why would he be pushing Russian propaganda against U.S. NATO allies regardless of where he picked it up? I agree the guy is an empty vessel, but it matters if the empty vessel is controlled by Russia.
