So where are the transcripts of all phone calls from every other US president?

You can bet your sweet

label they exist. But no need to rehash those if the former presidents weren’t compulsive liars bent on corruption.

@blackLabel

See, now look what all this liberal nonsense has caused. Opposition parties and liberals actually think they get transcripts of every single thing now.

Is this sarcasm?

Its the people’s government. Should be transparent.

willibAnother day, another Trump smear article in the fake corporate media. What else is new.

Another day, another attack on media outlets providing perspectives different from the those pushed by media controlled by Bannon, Putin and their ilk. Can these posters provide links to media they believe are objective? If not, their daily attacks make their posts worthless.

BORING!

We want the Trump ones where he drags other countries into his personal corruption, not the ones by the non-criminal presidents discussing legitimate issues of state between two countries (yawn).

So Blacklabel, go and ask your representative to file for disclosure.

He or She will ask you why?

you will answer......something I guess. Eventually you might receive the transcripts.

That won't magically absolve Trump of his crimes.

Well, I have to hand it to Putin - he accurately forecast what a disaster Trump would be for the Western Alliance. His sweeping and systemic influence operation has to be one of the most successful attacks against the Western democracies ever.

Trump attacks NATO, he insults the French and the Germans, he inserts himself in the UK's Brexit, calls Mexico a country of rapists, and oh yes, says he's in love with Kim Jong Un.....

Now he starts problems with one of our longest and closest allies, the Aussies.

Can it be any more clear? Putin's poisonous propaganda convinced a bunch of week-minded Americans to vote for a Russian proxy. And he's proven it every day since 20 Jan 2017....

And now he got caught trying a Putin-like move to smear his opponent...

Impeach this Impostor and Traitor....

Why is it people always post things like this without telling us what we should be reading?

But it would be amusing to see Trump's lawyers try the "but Obama and Clinton..." defense in court that his online fans are always coming out with. "Barack Obama might have had some juicy conversations with Putin and a few other bad guys maybe, so let's just say no more about this impeachment stuff."

Good luck with that.

Me: how did we know we could trust them when we never saw any transcripts? 

Because there were no whistleblowers.

Wow, that was mentally taxing. I need a nap now.

No.

You do understand that we still have not seen a transcript of the call between Donny and the president of the Ukraine, correct? We've seen a summary that included a footnote that specifically said it wasnt verbatim.

Yet more evidence that Trump is using his power as President to attack and discredit political opponents. This is there behaviour you would expect from someone like Putin, but not the USA.

The Republicans must ask themselves whether it is worth staying with Trump for the next election.

Unfortunately, the Australian PM, Slogan ScoMo, has become another lap dog to Washington. He has agreed to assist Trump to gain re-election, has agreed to buy more US military equipment to support US economy, has agreed to more US military bases in Australia and has agreed to support the US in military aggression against both NK and China. Our PM is making Australia a target and the people do nothing.

There is even talk now of possible nuclear arm. Within the next 2-3 years Australia will have US nuclear base in Queensland/Northern Territory. Australia has always wanted to be appointed US deputy in the Pacific.

About two weeks ago, I commented on this site that PM Slogan ScoMo was going to Washington to receive his orders from Trump and this is exactly what has happened. Now we need to find out exactly what those orders are, what was promised to Trump.

The world is laughing at how two parties from the so-called great nation are killing each other. And everyone gets to witness how savage things can get when one is the rebel of the State. If Trump dodges all the attacks purposely launched at him, he might as well deserve to run another 4 years. I'm really disappointed at his performance but the Democrat party played so dirty and low, they don't deserve any goodness going their way. Investigate all of them crooks politicians on both sides.

How do we know they werent, without released or leaked transcripts of all their calls?

if the former presidents weren’t compulsive liars bent on corruption.

liberals: we didnt need transcripts because we could "trust" all other Presidents except Orange Man Bad!

Me: how did we know we could trust them when we never saw any transcripts? No one ever told us what Obama was being "flexible" about with Russia but only after his reelection.

I am quite sure Obama and Putin talked about some things I wouldnt like and would be interested to know about, you know under "transparency" and all that.

-7 ( +2 / -9 )

Whatever. It’s a transcript. quit whining 8 hours later.
