Trump clarifies himself

LOL. What an asshat. Lap it up, Trumpers.
“Ultimately what was agreed to is the private company [Crowdstrike] would share with us what they saw… Our forensics folks would always prefer to get access to the original device or server that’s involved, so it’s the best evidence.” -- Comey
Yes the servers were cloud based, but you still have control over your cloud assets like you do the computer in front of you. Just not the hardware. The original servers were wiped and all software reinstalled down to the operating system without the FBI getting their hands on them. Now that doesn't mean anything nefarious per se...but it means you can never recover that information for further examination. I don't know if the DNC bore any legal responsibility to maintain that information. It doesn't appear so.
Might be his biggest lie yet.....and quite lame.
Anybody who publicly accepts this BS is too stupid to reproduce and should be rendered unable to do so.
And to those who continuously dismiss and give excuses for Trump's ridiculous statements......words do matter.
You've stated that you're in the NAVY....and I've thanked you for your service. Now I have to ask, how can anyone military like Hillary over Trump? Obama/Hillary reduced the military, cut wages, cut equipment, sold our uranium to Putin, and in a short time Trump is giving you the equipment you need.
I would prefer a trained seal, as long as it could balance a ball on its nose.
I too would prefer a trained seal over the most corrupt woman ever....oop's, that's not right. Her friends like Pelosi and Maxine are just as corrupt. And you can toss in Chelsea.
Republicans do nothing for actual soldiers, military contractors love when they're in charge though. It's Democrats that try to help veterans with housing, healthcare, jobs training, wages, etc.
Trump's running the most corrupt administration ever and you want to accuse someone else of corruption? Laughable.
I don't care for her, but Clinton would have been the most vetted president of all time. She has been investigated a thousand times, and no allegations have ever stuck.
I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Clarification by Donald Trump: Where he said "will" he meant "won't."

It is very obvious that Trump is reading a prepared statement which others have written for him. I do detect some of his input such as "no collusion" but most of it, I believe, was written for him.
Wtf does Chelsea have to do with anything? This is why you’re nothing more than a garden variety troll, just throwing out random names. It’s also a hoot you try to drag her when Trumps goon kids are as shady as they come.
Some mental defective in another thread was foaming at the mouth because he hasn’t been granted access to Clinton’s personal emails. The GOP’s Clinton strategy has been nothing less than a rousing success.

Well, they want to privatize the VA which could be a huge boon to vets .... as long as they are officers in the healthcare industry.
Whoa there, slick. Where did I ever say I preferred Hillary? I prefer a Commander in a Chief who doesn’t side with adversaries over his own agencies and generally act boorish at every opportunity - someone who respects the office in which they serve.
And “need” is a relative term. Trump hasn’t given me or my command a damn thing, nor is he going to any time soon.
What we “need” is a reduction in military spending, and especially to reform our acquisitions processes so we stop giving handouts to corporations who try to build stuff that is ultimately of little utility or doesn’t meet a practical requirement. You claim to be a conservative - the military wastes more money than any social program there is.
In spite of all evidence to the contrary, your rock solid argument convinced me.
Oy. This is the state of the entrenched left and the entrenched right. So many “adults” would do well to remember sticks and stones...
Awaiting the rebuttal from all of our resident chest thumping arm-chair patriots. BuilderBob has seen American Sniper 217 times (cried on each occasion). He is far more qualified than you to say what our armed forces need.
Republicans of late have targeted military pensions for reforms, including a 2015 budget measure which reduced COLA for actual retired people actively receiving pensions significantly, to the tune of $150,000 over the course of 20 years for an O5 retiree. They did that in a budget measure - not a reform bill - and pulled the rug out from under actual retirees in one day. MOAA and other organizations pointed this out, and they removed the clause from their budget, but only after MOAA called them on it. Total savings would've been $620 million dollars. There's a system known as RAMICS which was designed, built and tested to be put on helicopters to serve as a gatling gun to shoot surface and near-surface maritime mines. The development and testing cost $640 million dollars, and it never met the requirement and the program was scrapped. Republicans have done nothing to reform acquisitions. John McCain is trying, but fighting an uphill battle in his own party.
Now, the creation of the Blended Retirement System was a necessary step, and I applaud it. The other measure they snuck in the budget was a low blow and a poor attempt to save money.
Sorry to tell you some truth, but Republican (indeed the whole Government) priorities are all screwed up with respect to military spending, IMO. As a future retiree, I'd rather have Democrats in control because they're less likely to screw the people in order to keep funneling money to defense contractors. Republicans are fine when you're serving. They *generally* approve better pay raises and expand the force, but they're not looking out for Veterans basically ever.
Both parties need to target acquisitions before they go poking around personnel benefits.

I do not disagree on acquisitions part. I am ok with projects failing. That will happen in any industry. Not ok with the process itself.
As far as when I was serving and as a vet, will take my chances with a Republican over a Democrat. Not that either are great.
Lucky to have COLA at all as Indiana teachers get zip COLA increases. Times are changing and its not good.
Lucky? How many deployments have the teachers in Indiana been on? Luck has not a god damned thing to do with it. It was part of the deal when those people served at least 20 and retired, and a Republican Congress tried to sneak it out from under them to save money.
If they want to reform the COLA out, they can. Taking it from people who are already retired by a single pen stroke hidden in a budget act is about as low as it gets, and I won’t ever defend Republicans as friendly to Vets after that. They don’t deserve it.
The use it or lose it mentality is a killer. It's what keeps bad programs alive when the money should just be redistributed. Defense contractors are kind of indirectly a "veterans" program. I have yet to see a green suiter retire and go into something like...banking.
That is the most bizarre post ever. Our local VA is one of the worst in the US, and Trump is aware. I look for it to become so much better under the current regime.
No....the allegations are real. Obama protected her as did Jarrett with the meeting with Slick on the tarmac.
Give it up and realize how much Chelsea was being paid out of the Clinton slushfund...oop's..."trust". Her wedding was also paid out of that same "trust"...oop's...Slush fund. The whole damn family is as corrupt as it gets.
Have you somehow managed to avoid all of the news about the Trump foundation?
LOL. Yes, the allegations were real. It's just that the allegations had no factual bases. It's not that the Clintons were never investigated by republican majorities; it's just that those republican majorities couldn't prove wrongdoing.
Yep....like the Russian witch hunt, no wrong doings have been proven. Only wasted speculations by a bunch of liberals....but keep looking at the sky after sundown for those black choppers.
Okay...I know you're never going to believe it...but if you had done what the Clinton's have done, your ass would be picking up soap at Terre Haute. I guess you don't find it strange that Hillary the C sold our uranium to the Russians and a couple of months later they paid Slick $500k for a 20 minute speech.
You’re batshit. That’s about the nicest thing I can think of to say about you. Get help.
