Here's the guy who punk'd CPAC with Russian flags

Had fun handing out Russian flags with the word Trump on them out at CPAC. Also It was really fun calling Trump a fascist puppet to his face. Safe to say I won't be welcome back to CPAC anytime soon.

Trump fans were waving tiny Russian flags until CPAC staff confiscated them

Source: Vox

 :thatsright:

Quote
CNNs Peter Hamby was at National Harbor to watch President Donald Trumps speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday, and he saw audience members waving tiny Russian flags emblazoned with the name TRUMP. Staffers seem to have swiftly realized this was a bad look for a president who is under suspicion of a variety of shady ties with Russia, and confiscated them.

At the same time, the speech itself really only deepened the questions around Trump and Russia. He denounced the Washington Post reporting that led to National Security Adviser Michael Flynns firing, for example, as having been based on fake sources. But if the sources were fake, then why did he fire Flynn? Then he specifically denounced the whole idea of stories based on anonymous sources. But just hours ago, the Trump White House held an anonymous briefing with senior White House officials to deny reports that Chief of Staff Reince Priebus had made improper contact with the FBI regarding the investigation.

Flags or no flags, questions about what exactly is going on here wont stop until the White House allows a thorough and independent investigation.

So... we have manufactured outrage perped by the left to continue a fake story. AND the DUmp eats it up.

13. Good lord.

If my father were alive to see this he would be disgusted. So it's not enough to support Trump, you have to support America's greatest threat? What kind of madness is this?!

17. OMG, why isn't this headline news at NYT, Washington Post etc?

this is totally mind boggling. Instead of giving out US flags, they want to celebrate Russia? Really, Russia over the US, that is just astounding, jaw dropping even! Now they are bringing their treachery out in the open, for at least a few minutes anyway. Wonder which bright person realized how horrible this was and tried to hide it. I'm sure the love/fear of Russia is real for Drumpf and since they supported him financially when our banks wouldn't, think he's all in for Putin and this just proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt. This wasn't a mistake, this is their mission, promote Russia over us and try to keep it hidden from everyone except the "in crowd", their fellow haters of America.

there isn't really one. Some leftist infiltrated the CPAC and handed out russian flags. The staff kicked him out. Press of course took a shit load of photos and it's now out on the web that trump Supportes were waving russian flags.

The way I take it, some lefty (or a few) trolled CPAC by handing out Russian flags. The some ProgNewMedia source(s) - Vox was quoted - claimed it was real (whether by mistake or deceptively, I won't guess; stupidity works as an explanation, as does TDS).

The real story is that some leftist douchebag thought he punked CPAC but he really punked the FAKE NEWS media. Again, giving the point, set, and match to trump.

This is going to be a great year as the FAKE NEWS leftist implode by themselves with just a bit of nudging by people much smarter than the msm are.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

MSM lefties are going to come to hate the Fake News meme they created. Their faces are going to be ground into it until :marsattacks: .

President Trump needs to dig out some of the pics and video from Hillary and Bernie rallies where people were burning the American Flag and waving commie and Mexican rags. :-)
