Trump: U.S.-Russia relations at all time low because of 'Rigged Witch Hunt'
The Washington Times ^ | Monday, July 16, 2018 | abriella Muñoz

President Trump blamed the Russian meddling investigation as one of the reasons U.S.-Russia relations are so tense, hours before his meeting with President Vladimir Putin.

He blamed U.S. “foolishness and stupidity” and the “Rigged Witch Hunt” of causing the rocky relationship between the two nations.

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump Our relationship with Russia has NEVER been worse thanks to many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity and now, the Rigged Witch Hunt! 1:05 AM - Jul 16, 2018

Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs promoted the president’s tweet with two words: “We agree.”

He also accused former President Barack Obama of covering intelligence about Russian interference in the election because he believed the Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton would win the election.

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump President Obama thought that Crooked Hillary was going to win the election, so when he was informed by the FBI about Russian Meddling, he said it couldn’t happen, was no big deal, & did NOTHING about it. When I won it became a big deal and the Rigged Witch Hunt headed by Strzok! 12:37 AM - Jul 16, 2018

I think Brennan, Clinton and their gang are very afraid of what Putin could have revealed to POTUS.

Mueller is playing petty international politics. How dare he make a tenuous political relationship with Russia worse by making this lame swipe at President Trump?

All the while knowing that any and all “misdeeds” went on and occurred during the Obama Regime.

And why indict 12 Russians? There are 120 US officials to indict. Even more. There are probably hundreds of US officials from Obama, Clinton, Comey and on down the line to indict in obvious and legitimate cases of US interference in our own 2016 election.

You want collusion and illegal conspiracy? Look at the damn Democrats. Leave the Russians alone!

If he really had it he’d have released it already.

Interesting.

I think Russia was an easy scapegoat. I do think it was an inside job. How stupid do they think the public really is not to think this?

“President Trump blamed the Russian meddling investigation as one of the reasons U.S.-Russia relations are so tense...”

Another jewel to hang around Session’s neck....single handedly causing the almost-yet-to-be-determined destruction of US Russian relations.

We have never, ever heard one talking media head or Deep State propagandist tell us about the supposed "Russian sources" for Christoper Steele's and Fusion GPS Trump dossier. No one denies they were using Russian information (or purposeful misinformation) for their research on behalf of the Clinton campaign.

Is Mueller investigating those Russian sources?

Putin fu$%^$$ed with the Clintons, the Clintons can’t “suicide” Putin, so they’re itching for payback.

Worst relationship with RUSSIA ever? I “think” it should be pointed out that we are talking about THREE countries here.
There is the United States, Russia in ADDITION to the entity formerly known as the U.S.S.R.
The location of the last two, the language, the Zip Code, and cultural histories are the same,but the government is not quite the old one, thankfully.
Russia always had ambitions, most countries do, but it was under COMMUNISM that it was a threat to the entire world.
There may be MORE dedicated Communists today in the American LEFT than there are in Russia.

Trump is a clever one. He purposely did not say the Soviet Union. In regard to “Russia”, he is correct!

He probably could, but the greater priority is to find a real Attorney General and DOJ that will actively seek out the real spies and bad actors that colluded and interfered in our 2016 election.

That is Obama, Clinton, Lynch, Comey and hundreds more.

One would hope so. There are some very few people that used to dare hope this whole Mueller investigation was going to lead to a reverse head fake when it would be revealed that Mueller, Rosenstein, Sessions, et al were actually fooling us all by working for Trump and against the Democrats.

(Hello LS)

Crazy crack pipe dream, huh?
