I don't even think they care about that any more. Such is the state of politics here. It's just Trump/GOP good, everyone else bad. They don't care what he does, who he conspires with, as long as he's sticking it to the [libtards/KKKillery/Obummers] that's all that matters.

Yep, angry, easily-aggreived, older white males are clinging to their egos and righteousness and they won't admit that they are wrong on a single-issue regarding Trump. They are ideologically-blinkered, Fox News, Trump-above-everything-else consumers who can't even take a stance on a very simple question regarding the morality of whether our current government should forcibly seprate infants from their parents at our southern border. This is not a question with two morally-equivalent sides, but such folks would balk rather than answer this easily-answered question.

That's a sad statement about what guides their judgment. And this same group will now defend Trump's statements about the Russians, even at the expense of American democracy and the hard work of literally thousands of intelligence analysts and law-enforcement agents (probably half or more of whom would self-identify as conservative themselves)

But, of course, don't question their patriotism, as they "defend" America daily through their Twitter feeds by calling people Libtards and telling foreigners to shut up.
 
The United States faces a national-security emergency. The reasons for Trump’s behavior—whether he was bribed or blackmailed or something else—are unknown. That he has publicly refused to defend his country’s independent electoral process —and did so jointly with the foreign dictator who perverted that process—is a video-recorded fact. Also, that he took the side of the same dictator against his own security and intelligence services.

And these are facts that has to be seen in the larger context of his actions in office: this week, denouncing the EU as a “foe,” and threatening to break up NATO. In the past month, wrecking the U.S.-led world trading system. His flat-footed meddling in both U.K. and German politics in support of extremist nationalist and pro-Russian forces. His continued refusal to act to protect the integrity of the U.S. electoral system.

Confronting the US after Helsinki is this question: Can it afford to wait to ascertain why Trump has subordinated himself to Putin after the president has demonstrated that he has subordinated himself? His needs impeaching, this week. The rest can then come out in the wash over the next couple of months. Up to the remaining elected leaders of the US to act.
 
With all that's going on with Trump, I do wonder if during these speeches and interviews, he's briefed before hand, in which case what comes is a more collective effort, or whether he largely shoots from the hip and what comes out is purely his personal opinion and then his staff scurry around trying to make sense of it?

He must get debriefed and tries to effect it, like going on about the UK countries after the leaving UK- going to Scotland mess.

I think a lot of it is personal opinion. I have to believe there are enough people still around the presidency that have some modicum of knowledge of how things work globally and they try to tell him what to say/do. Then he just gets that "feeling" on camera and gets on a roll and shoots completely from the hip. The whole thing is bizarre

if only #resistance liberals cared about gerrymandering and dark money and voter suppression as much as they do about Russia's relatively inconsequential propaganda...

We do, but there's very little that can be done about that until November.

Also, it's estimated that the "relatively inconsequential propaganda" reached ~30m people, and the election was lost by a margin of 0.2% of that number.

Gets briefed, doesn't pay attention, fronts media, makes up a bunch of nonsense vaguely related to a couple of words he took in at the briefing, makes sure to chuck something racist / anti media in to keep his base happy, rinse and repeat.
 
I have to say, Putin has played a blinder here. Wheeled out a sitting US President and humiliated him in front of the entire world like some Roman Triumph, and now all the patriotic 'Muricans are trying to make it out to be some Trump masterplan just so they don't have to admit they were wrong. All hail Putin and his pet orange proto-Tsar
