Group Psychology, Bill. If he'd said the same thing while you were still backing Cruz or Carson or something you'd be jumping on him as hard as me or KG are, but now that you've begun to see him as your guy to get into the whitehouse you're going to give him more of a benefit of the doubt.Originally posted by Bill the Cat View Post

I was already thinking of starting a thread on the many Trump-russia links. Russian investment in Trumps businesses, Trump and Putin complementing each other, Russian hackers in the DNC systems, Trump mostly ignoring the party platform except interfering to ensure America wasn't blocking a Russian takeover of Estonia, wanting to pull out of NATO etc... lots of Trump links to Russia, none of which is highly suspicious in its own right, but they've begun to add up.
It's possible that Vlad simply sees Hillary as a war-mongering hawk and Trump as a simpleton and also a noninterventionist and so thinks a Trump presidency will allow Russia to expand militarily in a way that a Clinton presidency won't."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump

That's who Trump is... he'll do anything for his own advantage with little regard to the consequences. That's always been his modus operandi. I don't see why he should get the benefit of the doubt here... a presidential candidate should in any event know national security isn't a joking batter so I should assume he's being serious.Originally posted by Bill the Cat View Post"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

KG, I don't trust Trump further than I can throw him, but even my understanding of law wouldn't put his action in this category.Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostI am Punkinhead.

Obvious sarcastic hyperbole to mock the DNC claim that Russia hacked them
Yeah convict Trump on treason over a joke while letting Hillary get away with breaking national security laws and the DNC rigging the nomination
That sounds about right

I highly doubt that. I've been around long enough to know when someone is using sarcasm, as Trump was doing here. It has nothing to do with who he is currently.Originally posted by Jaecp View Post
I give everyone the benefit of the doubt. That's who I am.but now that you've begun to see him as your guy to get into the whitehouse you're going to give him more of a benefit of the doubt.
Knowing the context of Trump's tongue in cheek comment helps to shatter that perception.That's politics and its hard as hell to recognize in oneself and harder still to break.That's what

Treason is a legal concept. I don't think you can get to a moral equivalent from what he actually said.Originally posted by KingsGambit View Post
I think you can make a case for it being an idiotic thing to say - especially from a presidential candidate. But that doesn't make it treason in any real sense."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot
