His Latest Lie: 'Russia Is Very Unhappy Trump Won'

Cody Fenwick

August 3, 2018 4:00 am

President Donald Trump introduced a new lie to his repertoire Thursday night at a campaign in Pennsylvania, even as he attacked the media for supposedly spreading lies about him.

While defending his much-derided summit in Helsinki with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump said, “Russia’s very unhappy Trump won, that I can tell you.”

But this is a blatant lie, and we know Trump knows it’s a lie. First, we know this because the U.S. intelligence community unanimously concluded that Russia intervened in the 2016 election in order to help Trump win.

Second, we know Trump is lying because at the disastrous Helsinki summit, Putin said right in front of Trump that he wanted him to win the election.

Add Nancy Pelosi, and the Parkland kids.

There’s a common thread. It has to do with community organization, in a way. It’s the force...the bonds that hold humanity together.

They’re afraid of kids and grandmas. And the Obamas...they are terrified of them.
