Gowdy says Trump cabinet members should resign for Putin surrender
Poast new message in this thread
Date: July 22nd, 2018 7:58 PM Author: overrated idea he suggested https://www.politico.com/story/2018/07/22/gowdy-trump-putin-russia-735558 House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy chastised Donald Trump for inviting Russian President Vladimir Putin to Washington, saying Sunday that some members of the president's administration should consider quitting if Trump won't listen to their advice.
“The fact that we have to talk to you about Syria or other matters is very different from issuing an invitation,” Gowdy said on “Fox News Sunday” of the Putin invitation, which the White House confirmed last week would be extended for the fall. “Those should be reserved for, I think, our allies.”
The South Carolina Republican suggested that some members of the administration may need to consider leaving if Trump continues to disregard their advice to stand firm against Russia.
That concern has dominated discourse in Washington since Trump’s summit with Putin in Helsinki last week, at which he spoke more harshly of the FBI than of Russia.
“It can be proven beyond any evidentiary burden that Russia is not our friend and they tried to attack us in 2016,” Gowdy told host Bret Baier. “So the president either needs to rely on the people that he has chosen to advise him, or those advisers need to reevaluate whether or not they can serve in this administration. But the disconnect cannot continue.”
Political commentators and Democratic lawmakers said after Trump's news conference with Putin — in which he refused to side with the U.S. intelligence community on the issue of Russia's interference in the 2016 election and said he held both countries responsible for tensions — that advisers including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and national security adviser John Bolton should quit their posts.
But Republican lawmakers have been more hesitant to call for such a response from the president's team.

Earlier this weekend, U.S. Ambassador to Russia Jon Huntsman penned an op-ed for a Utah newspaper in which he said he would not resign, saying he felt he is very much needed in the role. And Coats said during a Thursday interview with NBC News' Andrea Mitchell that the question of resigning was "a place I don't really go to publicly."
"As long as I'm able to have the ability to seek the truth and speak the truth, I'm on board," Coats said. After Trump indicated Monday that he did not believe Russia was responsible for hacking Democratic Party computers and other wrongdoing during the 2016 election, Coats defended American spies' assessment that Moscow was to blame.
Gowdy struck a tone of admonishment Sunday on Trump’s refusal to side with the U.S. intelligence community — comments that the president later partially walked back.
“I’m glad he corrected it,” Gowdy said, “but when you’re the leader of the free world, every syllable matters.”
Still, Gowdy urged Trump to separate concerns about Russian interference from his frustration with the investigations into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Moscow.
“I have not seen one scintilla of evidence that this president colluded, conspired, confederated with Russia,” he said. “And neither has anyone else, or you may rest assured Adam Schiff would have leaked it,” he said, referring to the Democratic congressman from California.
Congressional Democrats continued Sunday to be skeptical of the response of their Republican colleagues on the Russia issue.
“When it comes to defending the country, they're not willing to follow through,” Schiff said on ABC’s “This Week.”
Others were just rather startled at the week’s whole turn of events.
“The fact that we have to question the integrity, the honesty and the loyalty of a commander in chief when it comes to dealing with Russia is a problem in and of itself,” said Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) on CNN‘s “State of the Union."

After graduating from Harvard University in 2001 with a Bachelor of Science in physics, Moulton joined the United States Marine Corps. He served four tours in Iraq and then went on to earn his master's degrees in business and public policy in a dual program at Harvard. He entered politics in 2014, running for Massachusetts's 6th congressional district. He defeated incumbent U.S. Representative John F. Tierney in the Democratic primary and then defeated former Republican State Senator Richard Tisei in the general election.

Date: July 22nd, 2018 8:02 PM Author: lilac pea-brained kitty cat parlor Did Soviet Union leaders ever visit USA for state visits during the cold war when we were under the threat of nuclear annihilation and serious espionage by USSR and when we were fighting proxy wars all over the world against them?
I wonder if all the US presidents who invited Soviet leaders also surrendered to them according to Gowdy? Or maybe USSR was an ally and was not a threat to US? or maybe USSR was not involved in activities within and outside US that was not against our national interest?
I think DRUMPF should be impeached for this invitation which is UNPRECEDENTED. State visits are ONLY for our allies |

Date: July 22nd, 2018 8:09 PM Author: lilac pea-brained kitty cat parlor I was responding to this IDIOTIC argument by Gowdy
"Gowdy said on Fox News Sunday of the Putin invitation, which the White House confirmed last week would be extended for the fall. Those should be reserved for, I think, our allies"
We have had official state visits by leaders of USSR and only an idiot will think that Russia is more a serious or dangerous adversary than USSR
As for as cabinet members resigning yes they should if they disagree with Trump's approach to relationship with Russia. We elected Trump (not Mattis or Pompeo or Coats) to set our foreign policy and he has the final say like every other POTUS before him. If they dont like it they should resign and while any president should seriously consider the advice of his cabinet the final decision is his.
Nixon didn't even keep his cabinet informed about his all important China policy and visit. so the idea somehow that Trump should be bend over for his cabinet silly

OH NO DRUMPF INVITED PUTIN. He is a Russian puppet just like Eisenhower who invited Khrushcev
Trump openly said during the 2016 campaign that he wanted friendly relationship with Russia and that he wants to cooperate with Putin on Syria/ISIS/Ukraine etc
if coats/mattis/pompeo/gowdy think this is bad policy then they should quit their current position and run for POTUS because last time I checked the people elected a guy who openly said he wants to improve relationship with Russia
We didn't elect Trump to maintain the status quo and just like Nixon/China, Obama/Cuba he has every right to pursure his vision especially when he openly campaigned for it

Date: July 22nd, 2018 8:45 PM Author: lilac pea-brained kitty cat parlor what was incorrect about my Nixon/China answer? Nixon kept everybody in the dark including his secretary of state William Rogers. It was purely a Kissinger/Nixon project until Nixon himself was ready to go to China.
I guess they dont teach history at Howard or Spellman or whatever shithole u went to for college?
http://articles.latimes.com/2001/jan/04/local/me-8268
"Nixon sent Kissinger to China in 1971, a diplomatic opening that turned more than two decades of foreign policy on its heels; Rogers was kept ignorant of the trip until the national security advisor was en route. Nixon went to China in 1972; Rogers stayed home. Kissinger conducted secret negotiations with the North Vietnamese; Rogers was again in the dark. Nixon met with Anatoly Dobrynin, the Soviet Union's ambassador to Washington; Rogers was kept out." |

Whether its an apt analogy is purely subjective. But no I didnt "lie" about how Nixon treated his cabinet when it came to foreign policy dumbass. Trump if anything is too nice and should have completely shut them out like Nixon |
