There's a reason you have to explain things multiple times.

Second part... I would have probably just ignored them. You act like a bratty child and you get treated like a bratty child. Sanctions and ignore. I understand that the rules change when you have a credible nuclear deterrent which they now do but still... what are they really going to do with it? They are a poor, paranoid nation, led by a ruling elite that really just wants to stay in power. Now they are still all of those things with nuclear weapons and they want to cash in on that clout. Don't believe me? Here is what Tom Cotton thinks...

Thank goodness for instant replay. After consulting the transcript of his comments at the Helsinki press conference with Vladimir Putin yesterday, Trump says he misspoke. He said he meant to say: “I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be Russia” rather than “why it would be Russia.”
Hey, we've all done that a million times, right?

Rookie mistake
Meanwhile, in other news, the market is creeping steadily towards its all-time highs...and according to some, broke some resistance today...

The more I watch Trump...the more convinced I become that a team of beleaguered managers is really responsible for his vast wealth. This man can't get out of his own way.

He's definitely not as sharp as he used to be.

So, Trump gets another mulligan? I prefer presidents who don't misspeak.
Wait, what? I hear HRC just issued a correction to her campaign speech. She meant "basket of adorables."

After all the lies, obstruction, delays,...Congress has been getting from the US 'national security organizations', I see no reason not to believe what Putin says just as much.

Youre right, you did say that. So I apologize for missing that part....(something else you aren't accustomed too).
However, the premise of my reply still remains...…
You still try to play both sides. I don't see "ignoring them" as the same as Sanctioning them. Ignore doesn't mean to take an action against...…
So again, either way it fell, you would be able to say, "see, I was right".....
Now I wont go as far as Mike and call you what he has....but "ignore" seems appropriate.....
Have a good one Mr, "Im always right"...…

So when "he" said you could keep your plan and you could keep your doctor....
You were ok with that "misspeak"??? lmao
It would be easier to say you would prefer to hold the opposition party to a higher standard....

"He" did not misspeak. As Obama's medical adviser, Dr. Death (aka Dr. Zeke Emanuel) later explained, the full statement was "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, if you can afford your doctor."
Dr. Death pointed out that the part about affording your doctor was the "fine print", and you don't read the fine print when giving a political speech.
Now we just need to identify the equivalent of Dr. Death on Trump's team of advisor, although I suspect it is The Donald himself. Apparently the "n't" in “I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be Russia” was the fine print.
