donald trump look stupid and incompetent and possibly a partner of vladimir putin or a servant of vladimir putin, a colluder with vladimir putin. so while he spent the day furious and embarrassed by the leak to not congratulate. we had to publically be proud of the thing that we know mba rae s embarrasses him. so he tweeted i called president putin of russia to congratulate him on his election victory. the l.a. times is reporting one person who speaks regularly with white house officials said the most recent leak seemed more geared toward infant liezing trump who has ignored numerous
