More (apparent) acknowledgement that Putin meddled =>https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/879317636164841474 …
He never acknowledged it w/out caveats the way other Republicans I talk to did & continue to do (Rs like Nunes & Cotton.)

nunes & cotton r principled. Trump is pragmatic. He rarely cedes a pt unless it gives him advantage
-
I think that's part of the problem, because he views it as "his" advantage & not "U.S." advantage. IMO instinct v. deliberate.
-
Maybe. I'm giving him benefit of doubt that he IS operating in country's best interest which don't conflict w/his. Until I see otherwise
-
Fair enough. I'll stipulate. But actions & results matter more than motivations -- just my view. Appreciate yours.

Dem & media would be in perpetual outrage even if Jeb had won.Jeb would have appeased. Trump's combative style is good for grassroots energy
-
Those aren't only choices. But I agree that as they always have, would treat Jeb same as they've treated all Rs, which isn't far off from DT

That's the brilliance of Trump-speak. He leaves wriggle room
