Whadya wanna bet the CIA is sitting on evidence of Trump and his camp communicating and colluding..

[ElementaryPenguin]

With Russia during the campaign - ready to dangle it threateningly over his fat orange head the moment he actually sets out to dismantle the Agency?

[MFM008]

1. Yes

I'm sure.

[Zoonart]

2. Personally...

I think that's why Woolsey high tailed. it out of there.

[ElementaryPenguin]

3. Me too

[ElementaryPenguin]

6. I think it also has him tied to Bannon and Flynn too - no matter what the political cost

And Rudy G. may have gotten a heads up to distance himself.

[Zoonart]

9. YEP

[leftofcool]

51. Yep. He has a reputation to keep.

[ElementaryPenguin]

16. In fact - the Trumpettes may have floated the threat of dismantling for some bargaining room...

In the event they had the Con Campaign absolutely nailed! Trump wouldn't be smart enough to conceive this - but the evil Bannon likely would be.

[UCmeNdc]

59. Trump wanted to weaken the CIA to help his Russian contacts.

Putin has a good thing going with Trump in play.

[pbmus]

4. Better do that sooner rather than later..

[sfwriter]

7. As soon as he is sworn in and President Pence is the assured outcome... EOM

[ElementaryPenguin]

15. Very possibly.

[Garrett78]

19. If Trump is impeached, the Republican electorate will explode.

The map doesn't look good for Democrats in 2018, but a Trump impeachment would alter the outlook.

[ElementaryPenguin]

21. I think EVEN the GOP

Would have no choice but to impeach and remove der Fuhrer from office

[ElementaryPenguin]

8. Couldn't agree more!

[Progressive dog]

5. I wouldn't bet against it nt

[ElementaryPenguin]

10. Neither would I. Not even one plug nickel!

[Freethinker65]

11. Yep. Trump will be blackmailed from both sides

[ElementaryPenguin]

12. Absolutely...

[northoftheborder]

13. Triple "yep"

This is turning into soap opera/spy novel/political thriller..........horrifying because it is all REAL, not just words in a book.........

[ElementaryPenguin]

14. Evidently they're going to break it to us very slowly and gently...

Wonder when the next chapter will end up being released.

[sinkingfeeling]

17. Yep

[Turn CO Blue]

18. Then drop it now BEFORE he's sworn in -- saving the nation nowbetter than saving CIA later. n/t

[ElementaryPenguin]

20. Amen to that, Comrade, er, brother/sister!

[mopinko]

22. whadya wanna bet

the cia knows what pootie has on him. this aint just about money. this is about bought loyalty, blackmail and plain treason.

[2naSalit]

23. I'm sure they haven't played

the whole "hand" in this game.

[ElementaryPenguin]

42. Well put! That pretty much sizes up where we are at this juncture.

[2naSalit]

43. As I have said in other comments...

I have been having a recurring dream... for over a week, in which something happens whereby the inauguration is postponed or something and it seems it is something that happens at the last minute like around the 19th.

Many of my recurring dreams actually come to pass in a manner very much like I saw in the dream. This feels like one of those and I hope that it is one of those.

Speaking to a friend today over tea, a very worldly war correspondent in fact, and they speculated that it may take about six months so the trumplodites will be terribly disillusioned and actually be glad when the cheetoking gets kennedied. He's a loose cannon and uncontrollable... which makes him expendable, which appears to be why the Rs don't give much of a shit about what he does until that fateful day... and then we will get WWIII as a consolation prize. For the time being, he's great cover for the shit they are pulling behind closed doors making us a fascist country... shock doctrine style.

[KittyWampus]

60. From what I can tell, they haven't played any hand at all. What's know from what posted last night

is not from the CIA.

[Wounded Bear]

24. They don't even have to break any rules/laws...

By law, they're not allowed to spy in/on America, but they probably have enough eyes and ears in Russia to know what is going on from their end. If nothing else, any of his business dealings would be available to our spooks in Moscow.

I can't imagine they don't have anything on him.

[former9thward]

25. Yet another CT without a particle of evidence.

But it sounds good so let's throw it out there and claim its true!

[ElementaryPenguin]

28. SPECULATION

Is basically what us lay people do around here, former!! I can tell you that about everything released so far I had luckily speculated (or deduced) had happened by the day after the election. If we slow down a bit for you - maybe you'll be able to catch up - and even contribute more than just your sour cynicism!

[triron]

29. I had as well

[former9thward]

30. Oh BS

I read countless posts here which claim the Russians hacked voting machines and changed vote totals. That is not being put forward as "speculation" but as truth and it is clear many believe it even though there is zero evidence of that. It is all baseless CTs no matter how its dressed up.

[ElementaryPenguin]

32. You do such a good job of arguing Trump's position...

Perhaps Kellyanne has a position for you...

[former9thward]

34. You do such a good job of personal attacks which violate TOS.

I think a job is open for you.... BTW its also Obama's position...

[ElementaryPenguin]

38. Being that he's President...

Obama is obviously encumbered with responsibilities that do not allow him to speak as freely as you and I can do about probably most subjects. It won't do for a President (other than the idiot Trump) to publicly speculate - and there are always going to be issues that he cannot be candid about. Be that as it may, Obama's story doesn't quite add up, but the determination might well be (and maybe justifiably so) that the American public is stable enough to handle proof of hacking actual voting tallies - and that the American President was just selected by the Russian President.

You don't have to buy my theory, and that's fine. I'm afraid I don't have time to at the moment to include some of the circumstantial evidence that I feel strongly supports what I'm suggesting, but you've probably seen most of it by now anyway. To each his own.

[unblock]

26. he publicly asked them to hack hillary's server and publish the contraband emails.

it's already public information.

oh, you mean *more* evidence of that sort of thing?

[uponit7771]

41. Right, no need for theories we can take the public info before us

[emulatorloo]

27. Yes. I bet it is all in the classified report.

[former9thward]

31. If it was in the classified report it would have been leaked.

Almost instantly.

[emulatorloo]

35. Not necessarily 'instantly'. Let's wait and see.

Someone may get increasingly frustrated and leak it later

[emulatorloo]

53. Turns out my hunch was right, it was leaked today, 1/10/2017

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=2677910

[ElementaryPenguin]

54. Kudos, emulatorloo!

You know a fascist traitor when you see one!!! (Too bad 40 some odd percent of the population did not! - they made it close enough to steal!)

[BadGimp]

33. you'd win that bet imo

[AgadorSparticus]

36. I think you are right.Trump has made it clear his disdain for the IC-at least here in the US, anyway

He probably has glowing words for the kgb.

He is openly treasonous. I feel like something will happen to him.

[ElementaryPenguin]

40. Publically humiliate the C.I.A., refuse to cooperate with the Secret Service,

Pick a fight with the Bush Crime Family, and don't even bother hide a traitorous preference the Russian government over America's.

Hmmm. Doesn't sound like the safest course of action a U.S. President could possibly take.

[Lil Missy]

37. Exactly what I was thinking. I think they've got him by the balls.

[ElementaryPenguin]

39. I know it. They really do.

Amazing. Trump is like Adolph Hitler meets Eddie Haskel meets Barney Fife.

[2naSalit]

44. LOL!!!

[hollowdweller]

45. I can't help but think he's in on it or they have something on him

[ElementaryPenguin]

46. He acts guiltier by the day...

[triron]

49. Yes he was and is complicit.

[meow2u3]

47. Mr. Drumpf, it's not wise to pick a fight with the CIA

They put their lives on the line to neutralize foreign threats to national security, including and especially those from your beloved comrade Putin. It's even more foolish to insult or threaten to dismantle the agency at Pootie's behest.

If you don't believe me, ask the surviving Kennedys. From JFK and RFK to their sons, they all met untimely deaths, either by assassins' bullets or by some sort of "accident."

If Comrade Casino values his life or the lives of his family, he had better not pick a fight with the CIA; he's bound to lose. That should be warning enough, but I doubt he'll heed it.

[ElementaryPenguin]

48. "Comrade Casino RARELY heeds advice...

Unless it comes from his dear Pootie!

[triron]

50. kick for visibility

[nycbos]

52. Indeed.

Charles Colson (of watergate fame) said "Once you have them by the balls their hearts and minds will follow."

[lame54]

55. WTF are they waiting for

[libtodeath]

56. If they do then get him indicted now.

[UCmeNdc]

57. They should start the investigation ASAP!

They need to interrogate Rudy Giuliani, Roger Stone, Breitbart, Chris Christie, etc.

[UCmeNdc]

58. No wonder Trump wants to dismantle the CIA and NSA... Put the old pros out to pasture before they

can verify and report.

[ElementaryPenguin]

61. I expect they'll get him before he gets them...
