Domestically never was my fear about Trump.
Globally was where most of my concerns lie.
And frankly...... Trump has proven to be Putin's bitch.
By doing what? As compared to who?
The very same policy wonks who used to tout Obama as brilliant want Trump to what? March up to Putin and punch him in the face? What does that achieve? A friendly Putin might be more able or willing to help in Syria or Iran or North Korea....but we're going to toss the very idea of peace aside to have a shooting war with Russia? Yeah that sounds brilliant.
Very same folks scared to death of Trump starting a nuclear war are now bitching about him attempting to get along with Russia......and nobody finds that odd?
We'll see what happens with Putin in the future.
He dedicated how much time and effort to deride some dumb athletes for failing to 'stand up' for America? Today from my eyes, he was no different by failing to do so.
That is a ridiculous comparison.
Russia can go to war with us in any number of ways.....athletes can :dontknow:
Um exactly. Trump likes his low hanging fruit. He can find the metal and moxie to call irrelevant individuals out while wrapping himself in the flag. Or he can slam allies on a world stage to rally his base. More so his voters can do the same and find the voice. But in the eye of Russian leader who he treats like a swooning teen idol more than a serious threat and actor..he caves. He was an empty suit mumbling praise upon him and nodding along and failing to defend the same colors, Republic, law enforcement and personnel. Because why...we have to fear
offending master Putin? We mustn't upset or speak even the slightest stern tone to Putin? We don't really think Putin respects
that do we? It's laughable. You do not stand on foreign soil before the world and follow along and fail to stand up, in some manner, some way, for the ones who have fought and those who will fight all these 'wars' we talk about. You take a man on his actions, on his conduct and character. Not some mealy mouthed half baked excuse like "I meant would". Honestly...Democrat-Republican-Independent. Terrible episode.
