President Trump's ego is so fragile, that he refuses to believe that collusion had anything to do with the election outcome. He badly wants/needs to believe that he got elected because his public worship the ground he walks on.
Russian interference, to him, cannot be fathomable because it means there is a possibility that he wasn't the best candidate.
What it looks like we've got now is a MSM that HATES POTUS so much that they record,dissect and interpret everything he says or does in every negative way possible. This has never happened before.
Republican Senator Mike Rounds of South Dakota came up with a reason why Trump said what he did
“The president just looked right back at [Putin] and with the same straight face... basically sent a message: ’If you can sit here and tell me that with a straight face and that’s what it takes it to move forward in other negotiations, I most certainly can match you on this, and in fact I can stand here and say, ‘Of course you didn’t do it,’ even though we all know that [you did],’” “The reality is, ‘I know you did it, you know you did it, and you know that I know that you did it.’ So to me, Mr. Putin tried to tell the whopper with a straight face and President Trump basically laid out, ‘You wanna play that game? Fine. I can do the same thing because we all know you did.’”
The senator then said “I can’t come up with another [reason]― we’re all trying to find a reason why the president would have done it. And this is the only logical explanation I can come up with it,”
It makes so much sense now.
I think the reason Trump was a fool was to try to kill Putin. Trump made himself look like such a fool in hopes that Putin would retreat to his hotel room and laugh so hard hysterically at Trump that he would give himself a heart attack and die.
The most shocking thing is that Putin made Trump look like the fool he is on the world stage instead of telling him to cool it down. It went too far.

Nope. This isn't even remotely it. His body language is that of a man being dominated by his opponent, not a man in charge.
He refuses to believe the Russians tampered with the election because it might mean he didn't actually win.
I also think Putin has something on him. Not some pee tape, because it would be embarrassing, sure, but would any of his supporters actually care? Nope. They'd say it was in the past, and Trump is a Christian now, or whatever, and he's a new man.
No... what would really upset even Trump supporters would be to find out he's beholden financially to the Russian mafia or something of that sort. That Trump isn't as wealthy as he claims, because Putin has access to Trump's financials. That would also make a dent because part of the Trump allure to a large percentage of supporters is that Trump is a rich, successful man. If he was neither as rich as he claims or as successful and/or was involved in some sort of collusion that put the US in jeopardy, I do think it would matter to a large chunk of supporters. If Putin has power over enough people who hold Trump's bank notes to bankrupt Trump? People might care then.
Not all of them, though. Trump could be the devil incarnate and they would not care.

When in doubt, check it out: FAQ
How do we even know that Putin is involved? Russia is a big country with millions of people. Could there be a group there that is working behind the scenes on their own that is trying to influence elections round the world?
Obama told us he had no idea that Hillary had her own private server despite sending her emails there....
Plus there are groups in America that are actively trying to undermine our own Government and influence elections and some of these groups are not known to Trump.
I'm just saying how can we hold Putin responsible for something he might not have had any control over?
Trump is our President but he has no influence over the DNC and their back door shenanigans to rig the election.
I think Trump put his foot in his mouth as he often does and the media and Dems are hammering on it as they always do.
Maybe you should call and let the FBI and CIA know this.

You mean like THRUSH vs U.N.C.L.E. ?
Possible, but I don't think that is very likely.
If you would suggest the Russian mob, then I would think that is possible.
You may (probably will) disagree but this is what I see:
#1 After multiple bankruptcies the Trump Org can no longer get loans from most big banks.
#3 March of 2014 the Russian Federation annexes Crimea. Subsequently president Obama announces sanctions on Russia, which inhibits the flow of money between the USA and Russia. This means he not only has trouble raising cash, but he has trouble repaying his 'investors', who are notably upset.
#4 Donald Trump announces his run for the presidency in 2015
#5 'Investors' ask Putin for help getting Trump elected so he can solve their mutual problem. Trump adds old Russia hands to his campaign staff. Russian disinformation campaign kicks into high gear. Trump campaign gets the condemnation of Russia's annexation (Crimea) removed from the Republican party platform.
Or, maybe Trump supporters are just making lame excuses for Trump not having the cojones to confront Putin face to face, he's much tougher hiding behind his Twitter keyboard. But go ahead, support him for throwing his own administration's intelligence community under the bus.
explain how he threw them under the bus. Besides the media said. I'd really like to know.
