The Republican Party is faced with a crisis within its ranks. It's standard bearer, Donald J. Trump massively fucked up while he went to Europe. Yesterday, Trump met the Russian president Vladimir Putin.
The two met privately and would later do a press conference. Let's just say, that his presser was a colossal fuck up. He blamed Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, the United States and the Democratic National Committee for the email hacks and meddling.
When asked about holding accountability, Trump basically dismissed it by saying that both countries should deserve the blame. Remember Republicans used to call Barack Obama out for "apologizing for America." I know I remember because you hear that shit constantly being peddled by Trump's favorite right wing network Fox News.
Then he would do a "victory lap" with America's most hated media agitator.
Sean "Softball" Hannity and Pecker(wood) Carlson did a sit down with Trump.
Even the most loyal Republicans would find this disturbing.

When it comes to Russian interference in our elections, do you stand with America's intelligence community or do you stand with Putin & Trump?
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???— John O. Brennan (@JohnBrennan) July 16, 2018
President Trump must clarify his statements in Helsinki on our intelligence system and Putin. It is the most serious mistake of his presidency and must be corrected—-immediately.— Newt Gingrich (@newtgingrich) July 16, 2018
I never thought I would see the day when our American President would stand on the stage with the Russian President and place blame on the United States for Russian aggression. This is shameful.— Jeff Flake (@JeffFlake) July 16, 2018
Today’s press conference in #Helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory.— John McCain (@SenJohnMcCain) July 16, 2018

Scoundrels, villains, are they who deal in crooked talk. Shifty of eye,feet ever moving,pointing with fingers,They have perversity in their hearts,always plotting evil,sowing discord. Therefore their doom comes suddenly;in an instant they are crushed beyond cure. Proverbs 6:12-19— Marco Rubio (@marcorubio) July 17, 2018
No American President has ever disgraced himself, the Presidency and the United Stated like Trump did today. The video will endure as a monument to stupidity, arrogance and idiocy throughout the ages. Trump beclowned himself and made the world much more dangerous. What a fool.— Steve Schmidt (@SteveSchmidtSES) July 16, 2018
Trump winked at the Russian leader sparking even more fury here at home. I mean this is a mess.
The President of the United States has caved to a foreign leader that's not Benjamin Netanyahu.
Donald J. Trump treats this like it's reality television. He got pawned by a guy who sends journalists to the pearly gates. He got handed his ass by a guy who would hire Russians to do an "out call."
