President Donald Trump on Sunday morning revealed that he discussed forming a “Cyber Security unit” with Russian President Vladimir Putin, but under 24 hours later Trump walked back that suggestion.
Trump mentioned the unit in a tweetstorm about his conversation with Putin at the G20 summit and Russian election hacking.
Putin & I discussed forming an impenetrable Cyber Security unit so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded..

…and safe. Questions were asked about why the CIA & FBI had to ask the DNC 13 times for their SERVER, and were rejected, still don't….

Trump’s proposal for a partnership with Russia on cyber security drew criticism from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle on Sunday. The President then stated that the cyber unit “can’t” happen Sunday night.
The fact that President Putin and I discussed a Cyber Security unit doesn't mean I think it can happen. It can't-but a ceasefire can,& did!

Criminelly, is this guy clueless. Did he really think anyone would fall for this?? Or desire it (other than Pootie, of course, who would share nothing and take everything)…
Well, gosh, who wouldn’t think setting the fox to guard our hen house would be a good idea?
I think it’s simpler to just run everything by Putin: if he says yes-da, if he says no-nyet.
Damn, and I was ready to order my MASA hat (Make America Secure Again).
Does this asshole actually believe that he “negotiated” a “ceasefire” with Putin on cyber warfare against us, and visa versa? If so, he’s even stupider and more gullible than I imagined (and that’s saying something!) The mind boggles at the idea this corrupt and criminal FOOL is President of the United States.
