Another uncomfortable event that the GOP and Trump supporters have a hard time explaining is the “Helsinki Paradox.”
In July of 2018, days after the Russian Federation hosted the FIFA World Cup final, The President of the United States flew to Helsinki Finland to have a summit with Vladimir Putin.
The President was asked about US intelligence findings that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. He says “I don’t see any reason why it would be” and takes the Russian president’s word that they did not interfere.
24 hours later he is walking back those comments.
The president claims he meant to say “wouldn’t.” Now, what does this mean?
There are only two possible scenarios:
- After much thought, the President really-really meant to say “wouldn’t.” As in, he sees no reason why the Russians “wouldn’t” have interfered in the 2016 election, in his favor, as the reporter asked. ***Kind of blows a giant hole in the “Russia Hoax” theory, as Donald Trump likes to call it.
- The President didn’t mean what he said 24 hours later, really does believe Putin, and doesn’t trust his own intelligence services, but was muscled into making this embarrassing correction. Not sure how this behavior disproves the “Russia Hoax” theory, besides, what kind of president corrects something he actually meant to say, especially this embarrassing?
The pretzel brain sycophants will just say “who cares” and “where is Hillary’s server/emails?” (as Trump does in Helsinki and many are doing right now).
Neither possible scenario supports the “hoax” theory, in fact they do quite the opposite.
