As you might have noticed, he's not POTUS. Now...back to Trump kissing Putin *** today. He was puckering up, considerably. Why does he keep doing that, ya think? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bee Posted July 17, 2018 #131 Share Posted July 17, 2018 5 hours ago, and then said: He isn't going anywhere until at least 2020. He did seem off his game today but he didn't say anything that wasn't true. The man was trying to be diplomatic in public. I think that no matter what he said to Putin, they'd have been fully against him. I think he realizes this now and is going to just do what he wants and ignore them to the extent he can. The media in this country are the real 5th column. They need to be openly resisted by all means possible. They are tearing this country apart. It's the same in the UK but not quite so polarized and blatant and with more of a British flavour.... The people who own and control the MSM are now in the process of owning and controlling the internet - They will spoil it for everyone - they ARE the enemy - 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much harder to extend one's hand in peace to a former enemy. If Presidents Trump and Putin come away from this summit with a better understanding of each other and mutual respect then it has been a success. Every step closer to peace and away from hostilities benefits the whole world. well said.... thanks for that 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be pretty stupid to just suck up to them and let them get away with it... Trump goes out of his way to praise the Intelligence services, in general, and thank them for their hard work.... But he knows that there are rogue elements that are a danger to the fabric of the country that they are payed to SERVE...

Trump can't even criticize anything Putin does, even when it's clear that they hacked and meddled in our election. He's all like...oh...you gave a strong denial... I'll just ignore all this proof my own people came up with, and believe you. And incidentally, it sounds like a great idea to have the perpetrators come help us with our investigation.

Gromdor Posted July 17, 2018 #141 Share Posted July 17, 2018 When I hear of rogue intelligence agencies acting against the president, I think something more along the lines of Kennedy and the grassy knoll as opposed to a special prosecutor. Because the special prosecutor has to do all that presenting evidence stuff and proving in a court of law and what not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted July 17, 2018 #142 Share Posted July 17, 2018 President Trump is tougher on Russia in 18 months than Obama in eight years Even though the left-wing media will never give him credit, President Trump has been far tougher on Russia than his predecessor, Barack Obama. For starters, it was President Obama who, according to Reuters, was “caught on camera” saying to a Russian leader that he’ll have more flexibility after the election — not President Trump. The fact is, President Trump has been quite tough on Russia. So much so, the sanctions resemble a Russian nesting doll: one sanction of top of another, on top of another. Just last April, the Trump administration imposed new sanctions on Russia — including strict sanctions on seven of Russia’s richest individuals and 17 top government officials for their interference in our elections. The sanctions directly penalized President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle by prohibiting them from traveling to the United States ever again. He did this by opening a bank account in the West, preventing them from doing business with the West and prohibiting anyone else to do business on their behalf. cont... http://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/397212-president-trump-is-tougher-on-russia-in-18-months-than-obama-in-eight I suppose they will be labeled right-wing now. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horse ****. That was the weakest performance an American President has ever demonstrated. He couldn't even stand with our own government's assessment of the situation. He blamed the US for Russian wrongdoing. And he held out as long as he could without imposing the sanctions that Congress voted on. Ultimately, he didn't have a choice, but his deference to Putin is obvious. Especially, because Trump usually comes out swinging, even if it's at Justin Trudeau. Lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and the expelling diplomats thing is kind of a gem too, sure he kicked them out , he also made it so Russia could simply replace them with other personnel : Trump Administration Confirms Russia can Replace Expelled Diplomats Quote Donald Trump’s State Department has confirmed that Russia can replace the 60 diplomats expelled from the United States this week. “Donald Trump on Monday ordered the expulsion of 60 Russian diplomats the US identified as intelligence agents and the closure of the Russian consulate in Seattle, the most forceful action Trump has taken against Russia to date,” CNN reported at the time. “Of those being expelled, 48 of the alleged intelligence agents work at the Russian embassy in Washington and 12 are posted at the United Nations in New York.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he's robbing the Russian people blind. So much so that he's laundering money all over the world. They deal with the fallout of the sanctions, and he's lining his pockets.
