Ron Johnson on MTP . . . . . WOW. And Chuck Todd can't make him shut the fuck up

[Stinky The Clown]

Peter Strzyk(sp?) / Deep State / Other pure conspiracy theories and relating them breathlessly to Ukraine. Paul Manafort was framed. CIA kicking things into overdrive. DNC/HRC involved in Russian hacking. Does not trust CIA. Does not trust FBI

[Pachamama]

1. Ron Johnson is owned

Like Lindsay Graham and others, he has his orders and is owned by Trump....

I wish Chuck Todd had asked him exactly why he went to Russia and what he did there.....

[Stinky The Clown]

2. The is the latest strategy to defend Trump.

Operation CONFUSE THE FUCK OUT OF EVERYONE

[blm]

15. Red meat toss day. Calling for their AlexJones-conditioned faithful to arm up

with telephones or guns to protect Trump from their version of Deep State.

Johnson knows this is exactly what he is doing, and he doesn’t care how much lying he has to do to pull it off.

[spanone]

3. I used to assume Senators were smart. Not anymore.

[jcgoldie]

4. Chuck Todd has been trying to get these fuckers to actually answer questions the past 2 weeks

...then he seems dismayed and surprised when they gish gallop and dodge... Hello Chuck! You've allowed them to do that shit for 5 years now and egged them on with both sidesist bullshit... NOW you're suddenly surprised?

[Arkansas Granny]

5. I wish they had cut his mic. It will be interesting to see how many Republicans

will parrot that message. Were those the subject of the current talking points email?

[dewsgirl]

6. I have got to give credit where credit is due, Chuck Todd has

seriously stepped it up this past week or so.

[Heron5]

7. Right?

It’s like he’s channeling his inner Jeff Mason. Answer the question I’m asking, not the one you want to answer., because I’m going to ask it again and again anyway thereby revealing your indefensible position.

[dewsgirl]

13. I like to think behind the scenes they are being coached

On how to handle the Trump admin. better. From the unfortunate mistakes the press have made in other countries, I'm hoping they will all step up like this and defend our country.

[PJMcK]

28. Journalists at this level should not need to be coached

Meet The Press is at the pinnacle of broadcast news. Chuck Todd has many years in this business yet he's still a hack.

It's about time he stepped up his game.

[dewsgirl]

31. I meant in order to develop new strategies for pushing back

For the increasing gaslighting from these people. I was also thinking of the press Corp.

8. After Moscow Trip, Ron Johnson Says Election Meddling Overblown

https://www.rollcall.com/news/politics/republican-senator-returns-moscow-says-election-meddling-overblown

One of the Republican senators back from a trip to Moscow is suggesting that Congress went too far in punishing Russia for meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

“I’ve been pretty upfront that the election interference — as serious as that was, and unacceptable — is not the greatest threat to our democracy,” Sen. Ron Johnson said in an interview with the Washington Examiner published over the weekend. “We’ve blown it way out of proportion.”

Johnson (R-Moscow) had spent the 4th of July in Russia!

[Captain Zero]

11. We need to call them the #Moscow4thGOP !!

Can we get a list? They are the most compromised and now minimizing the election interference with pure bullshit. What were they shown and told in Moscow on their July 4th visit!! Because all of them are apologists for Trump and his puppet master, Putin, now.

[Paladin]

9. Whoa! Chucky Todd got ANGRY with Johnson.

Wassamatta, Chucky? Is that "Both Sides Do It, So Both Sides Are Equally Guilty" approach of yours wearing a little thin---even on you?

[lindysalsagal]

10. We don't need clever pundits, we need referees.

Boxing gloves, muzzles.

[LakeArenal]

12. Ron Johnson is one of the corner stones of

Eliminating unions, gerrymandering WI, ruining the environment, gutting public school funding, pipeline, ending solar credits, eliminating plans for high speed rail, and what ever else that is wrong politically.

He wants to run for President.

Most hated list in Wi
With Fitzgeralds, Grothman, Olsen,
Lots of douchebaggery.

[cp]

16. Don't forget rat Vos

RoJo is the stupidest senator Wisconsin ever sent to D.C.

He never responded to my letter asking him why he went to Moscow....

[usaf-vet]

22. Sen. Ron Johnson is the Chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Sen. Ron Johnson is the Chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

RoJo, as he is called in Wisconsin, needs to explain what does he know about Russian hacking of the 2016 election.

What does he know and when did he know it about the 2016 election. Wisconsin is one of the states that put Trump in the White House.

Wisconsin State elections have a checkered past. From gerrymandering, stacking of the state supreme court with the help of the Koch brothers millions of dollars and other election irregularities.

As far as running for president IMHO he might actually replace Trump as the most intellectually challenged person to seek that office.

17. Who would have thought that

"Night of the Living Dead" was a look into the future.

Johnson, Graham, Rudy, dump and family, etc.

POD PEOPLE!!!

[LeftInTX]

18. I give up. These GOP senators keep changing their minds!

Two days ago Johnson:

A top US diplomat told Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) that the Trump administration was blocking hundreds of millions of dollars in US military aid to Ukraine until the country agreed to launch investigations Trump was demanding, Johnson told the Wall Street Journal Friday.

Johnson said that the US ambassador to the European Union, Gordon Sondland, told him in late August that the administration was demanding Ukraine investigate “what happened in 2016,” and that if President Trump had “confidence” in the investigation, he’d “release the military spending.”

It’s been well documented by now that Trump tried to push Ukraine to launch investigations designed to serve his political needs — one into the origins of the FBI’s Russia investigation, and one into the Biden family.

20. These guys have dementia. Imagine living in their nut job Fox and Hanity world.

[CentralMass]

27. Either there are some naked photos or they are getting suit cases full of rubles. Or both.

[Pepsidog]

19. Why is MSBC giving these bumble-fucks a platform. Keep them on Fox.

[LiberalLovinLug]

21. Chuck is in way over his head

And always has been.

[usaf-vet]

23. He has allowed it to happen. He's been willing to allow lies to be told without pushing back.....

... to curry favors from the GOP and allow their RW conspiracies to spread.

Now that the time has come to try and get to the truth he has no record of being tough and demanding the guest answer the questions.

Today he was stonewalled by the lightweight Ron Johnson aka "RoJo" a Trump toady.

[rusty fender]

24. How do you know when a Repuke is a passenger

on the ill-fated ship that is the USSR Putin? When they defend Trumpass’s crimes

[Skittles]

25. that senator is literally PERFORMING for Trump, knowing Trump will LOVE it

it is sickening beyond BELIEF how many people are willing to humiliate and degrade themselves for a fascist buffoon

[padah513]

29. Performing yes but trying to get back in Trump's good graces, if there is such a thing

Johnson told the press that he was blocked by President Trump from telling the Ukrainian president that the delayed relief funds were on the way. He's just scrambling to cover his butt now, scared that Trump might tweet about him.

[NCLefty]

26. He was a hack before this. Oh, look: he's still a hack.

[BlueWI]

30. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting.

We need to find a good opponent for our bought and sold senator. Defeating Johnson in 2022 would be a service to the whole country.

[helpisontheway]

32. He should have cut to commercial. Nt
