Donnie wants to work with Russia to fix the WORLD
Sometimes we have to start with TrumpOnTwitter to make sense of the news. So, ok.
A couple I skipped yesterday:
Anna Wintour came to my office at Trump Tower to ask me to meet with the editors of Conde Nast & Steven Newhouse, a friend. Will go this AM.

That’s a trivial but still telling item – telling because it betrays that he wants us to know that editors come to him now, even big name editors like Anna Wintour. He wants us to be impressed. He’s that needy.
I am asking the chairs of the House and Senate committees to investigate top secret intelligence shared with NBC prior to me seeing it.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 6, 2017
Rachel Maddow pointed out last night how absurd that is – the report was all over the news and it’s just routine for leaks like that to happen. NBC is not a special offender. But NBC…well…it’s not Fox, put it that way.
Also Trump looks ridiculous asking Congress to investigate trivial offenses against his Presidential Self. He looks even more ridiculous telling us he’s doing so via Twitter.
Then came his sober assessment of the Russian hacking.
Gross negligence by the Democratic National Committee allowed hacking to take place.The Republican National Committee had strong defense!

No, that’s another lie. Russia did also hack the RNC, but it didn’t share what it found with Wikileaks, because Putin wanted Trump to win.
Why? Partly to get revenge on Clinton for dissing him, but also to get a stupid easily-manipulated patsy in the office.
Intelligence stated very strongly there was absolutely no evidence that hacking affected the election results. Voting machines not touched!

No; another lie. It did not state that. It stated that it did not investigate that question, not that “here was absolutely no evidence that hacking affected the election results.”
Only reason the hacking of the poorly defended DNC is discussed is that the loss by the Dems was so big that they are totally embarrassed!

Study that one for awhile. Let it sink in. Ponder it.
He’s saying that Russian tampering with the US election is no big deal and wouldn’t even be discussed if the Democrats weren’t red-faced about losing.
Having a good relationship with Russia is a good thing, not a bad thing. Only "stupid" people, or fools, would think that it is bad! We…..

have enough problems around the world without yet another one. When I am President, Russia will respect us far more than they do now and….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 7, 2017
both countries will, perhaps, work together to solve some of the many great and pressing problems and issues of the WORLD!

He thinks Russia respects him.
Yeah, well, he managed to convince himself that Obama respected him after Obama was polite and nice to him at their meeting. He doesn’t understand people like the Obamas, people who are courteous and polite to their guests, even if they do not like or respect them. That’s called diplomacy.
That first tweet; does ‘a friend’ simply mean that they haven’t said anything bad about him yet? Also, considering he sent the tweet at 2.18pm, he’d have to be a time-traveller to be able to ‘go this AM’.
One final point; I think it’s time somebody taught Trump some new superlatives, ‘great’ is really starting to grate.
