Ralph Peters: "I Am Convinced That Vladimir Putin Has Some Grip On President Trump"
Real Clear Politics ^ | 6/6/2018 | ian schwartz

Retired Lt. Col. Ralph Peters, a former FOX News contributor, told Anderson Cooper on Wednesday that he is "convinced" Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin has some type of "grip" on President Trump.

"I am convinced that Vladimir Putin has some a grip on President Trump," Peters said on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360. "And, Anderson, when I first learned of the Steele dossier, it just rang true to me, because that’s how the Russians do things. And before he became a candidate or president, Donald Trump was the perfect target for Russian intelligence."

"Here is someone who has no self-control, a sense of sexual entitlement and intermittent financial crisis," he said of Trump. "I mean, that’s made-to-order for seduction by Russian intelligence."

Peters also talked about his time at FOX News, why he left, and why he believes the network is doing a great deal of damage to the country.

“Good thing this brain dead idiot is retired because I shudder at the thought of any armed serviceman serving under this stupid man..”

That is absolutely true. I can't imagine an intelligent person having to report to him.

Michael “Mullet Head” Mullen is another one. Served as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

He was awarded a bucket full of silver and gold stars before being vetted by Bloomberg to be a possible vice-presidential running mate in 2016.

A recent appearance in the national media by Mullen was truly frightening. And his career was advanced by Republicans! What were they thinking?

Even before he became unhinged with Trump derangement, I always thought there was something a little off about Peters.

Well, how can you argue with his feelings? Disregard everything we've learned so far about the Steele Dossier - it must be true.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is fascinating and it teaches us that people we thought were rational...aint.

"It just rang true" (IOW: he wants to believe it)

"Someone with no self control" (who doesn't drink, smoke, or do drugs)

"sexual entitlement" (describes an awful lot of men, many of whom are in Hollywood or the media, I notice)

These people are nuts. No one controls Donald Trump. He'd rather go down in flames than submit to blackmail, and if money mattered to him, he wouldn't have given it up to be President. We've known who Trump is since the 80s. I doubt any of his secrets would shock us.

Putin has Hillary, Comey, Rosenstien, Mueller, Lynch, Obama, Brennan, and Clapper by their short hairs.

Put in has nothing on Trump. Anyone who really thinks Putin wanted Trump to win doesn’t have a brain. Putin has enough dirt on the deep state to put them all in prison for life.

Peters is a retired Army LTC, which is nothing special.

I guess that makes Putin the best friend the US ever had.

Well my Great-Aunt Tilly was convinced tiny people were living inside her walls. And, to be honest, I put more stock in Aunt Tilly's beliefs than I do Ralph Peters...

Col. Peters is worried about our Purity of Essence.

It is curious how many of these former FoxNews commentators and hosts join other networks and seem to have little problem turning to the left in their commentaries and hosting.

mp," Peters said on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360. "And, Anderson, when I first learned of the Steele dossier, it just rang true to me, because that’s how the Russians do things.

They do things just like the core of the Hillary Campaign?

Hmmmmm.
