In his July 16th summit with Putin, Trump put on “one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory. The damage inflicted by President Trump’s naiveté, egotism, false equivalence, and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate. But it is clear that the summit in Helsinki was a tragic mistake."
(Republican John McCain from Arizona)”Once again, Trump takes to the international stage to embarrass America, undermine our institutions, weaken our alliances, & embrace a dictator. Russia interfered in our elections & attacked our democracy. Putin must be held accountable -- not rewarded. Disgraceful.”
(Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts)”Trump's press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of 'high crimes & misdemeanors.' It was nothing short of treasonous.”
(John Brennan, former CIA director)“Disgusting!”
(Neil Cavuto, Fox Broadcasting news anchor and journalist)This “will be seen by Russia as a sign of weakness and create far more problems than it solves.”
(Republican Senator Lindsey Graham from South Carolina)“The president is putting himself over our country.”
(Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer from New York)The president’s performance was “shameful.”
(Republican Senator Jeff Flake from Arizona)“This is a sad, shameful moment for our great nation.”
(Tim Kaine, a Democrat from Virginia)”For the President to side with Putin over his own intelligence officials and blame the United States for Russia's attack on our democracy is a complete disgrace.”
(Mark Warner, Senate Intelligence Committee Vice-Chairman)
I love the poorly educated.
Donald Trump
