Trump Says Snowden is "A Total Traitor Living the Life"

Trump is as insane and as dangerous as they get. The only problem is all the rest of the candidates are as insane and dangerous, they just hide it.

From the Washington Times:

Businessman and 2016 GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump says if he’s elected president, Russian President Vladimir Putin would turn over former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden.

“If I’m president, Putin says ‘hey, boom — you’re gone’ — I guarantee you that,” Mr. Trump said in an interview with CNN.

Mr. Trump called Mr. Snowden, who faces Espionage Act charges for his role in leaking information about the NSA’s phone-snooping program, a “total traitor” and said he “would deal with him harshly.”

“And if I were president, Putin would give him over. I would get along with Putin. I’ve dealt with Russia,” Mr. Trump said.

  1. Trump is a POS. Snowden is a man. A real man.
    I hope, and I figure he will, Trump destroys himself in this campaign. You called it right RW, when you said he is a Fascist. Benito would be proud.

  2. UGGG. This is VERY disappointing. And after he sounded at least half way decent on the Federal Reserve, the wars and a couple other issues. He could have sewed up the libertarians if he'd have come out different on this.

  3. Although I dread a Trump presidency, I hope he damages the GOP "brand" so catastrophically during the campaign that the party splits.

    I still think he may be a stalking horse, running in cahoots with Clinton, but if he thought he could win he would stab her in the back.
