Trump meets with his master - Putin - and commits treason

I think it is time to accept something that my conservative friends don't want to accept - Trump is being controlled by Putin - and Trump is committing treason.  He just met with his Russian master and was given his marching orders.  He claims he believes the head of a hostile foreign power - the Russian killer Putin - rather than his own intelligence agencies about Russian interference in American elections in 2016 and still today.

Who thinks Trump is committing treason? former CIA director John Brennan:

Donald Trump’s press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of “high crimes & misdemeanors.” It was nothing short of treasonous. Not only were Trump’s comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???
"It's high time we called Trump by his real name -- traitor, perhaps our country's worst traitor ever. I speak not of his attack on our allies, his appeasement of our adversaries, his assault on the press, his coddling of racists, his repulsive misogyny, his rampant corruption, his terrible cronyism, his brazen nepotism, his abuse of children, his obstruction of justice, his contempt for our justice system, or his war on the environment. I speak of his systematic destruction of our economy.
Trump is hell bent on engineering a complete meltdown of U.S. trade."
 
...the real question is why. One answer is mental illness. It doesn't fit the facts. Another answer is stupidity. No one, not even Trump, is that stupid. The only answer is that he's trying to ruin our economy for the same reason he's trying to destroy NATO, alienate our allies, befriend our enemies, divide our country, undermine our democracy, and demean our values. The reason is he's a traitor."

Putin has Trump under his control for the purpose of destroying America, destroying America's influence in the world, destroying the leading voice and force for human rights in the world, for destroying America's sacred destiny of being a shining light on a hill - a symbol of hope and democracy for all of the world.  He couldn't have lucked into a better choice to destroy hope than Donald J Trump as president - a repulsively ignorant, greedy, self centered, corrupt man who spreads darkness not light across the world.

Donald J Trump is not a Republican president.  Donald J Trump is not a conservative president.  Donald J Trump is an authoritarian fascist president under the control of the wealthiest and most corrupt man in the world, Vladimir Putin.

Donald J Trump is America's dark side, the side of white supremacy, the side of plutocratic greed and destruction, the side of the plantation owners of slaves or yore, the side of the neo-Nazis and KKK, the side of environmental despoilers and polluters, the side of impoverishing labor to make them subservient to their aristocratic and plutocratic masters, the side of pulling children from their parents - and losing track of them.

Donald J Trump is the very loud, very visible shame of America.  He isn't alone. He isn't the first.  But he lifts the most shameful parts of America into the light and struts it proudly, and allows the slime crawling out from under old, moldy rocks to strut their filthy selves.

My dear conservative friends, you are not Trump.  You are not the slime crawling out from under the rocks. You are the ones who need to wake the hell up.  What is it going to take if not watching Trump stand next to Putin and side with him over his own intelligence agencies?

Only my conservative friends can save America and thus save hope in the world.  

Impeach the bastard.
