darksidedog Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 An inflammatory post and two replies that I totally agreed with have been removed. This thread is about Trump and Putin right now. Conjecture of what may have happened decades ago, involving other people is not welcome. Stay on topic folks and if you see a disagreeable post, please report it, don't respond to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GroveHillWanderer Posted July 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) I can't understand why so many Americans continue to express their support for Trump when he continually trashes their (and his) own country. Just yesterday, before meeting Putin, Trump tweeted that there have been: Quote many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity, In his news conference a few hours later with Putin, Trump again accused his own country of feeble mindedness, saying that, Quote The United States has been foolish In many speeches since his election, Trump has described the US as "a stupid country." It just truly astounds me that any US citizen would continue to support a man that, in a complete reversal of his pledge to "put America first" is constantly putting his own country down in this way and is perfectly happy to put the US, its democratic institutions, intelligence community, people and strategic interests second to the interests of Russia and its leader Vladimir Putin.

It amazes me how a developed country can have so many sheep, divided but willing/wanting to believe the BS they hear on the fake news. Like we all find it so funny they still think Saddam had WMD Given the demographic composition of those who later became Trump supporters, it was they who overwhelmingly supported the Iraq War. At the time leftists were overwhelmingly reviled for their disbelief in the evidence. Edited July 17, 2018 by bristolboy 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now this from my contact in Moscow as to why Putin wanted to meet Trump:...……….. When Putin was a little boy he wanted to go to the circus, but his mother wouldn't let him go, so when he got the chance to meet Trump, he got his wish to meet his favourite dumpy, orange faced, dyed combover clown with the intelligence of a goldfish...…….Lucky Vlad!! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted July 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) 2 hours ago, Eric Loh said: The sanctions were imposed in 2014 over the invasion of Crimea. Never knew he was President then. Trump did expel about 60 Russian diplomats after the Skripal attempted nerve agent assassinations in the UK. And later he was angry he did it and regretted it, because he didn't know what he was doing. He wrongly thought the U.S.'s 60 number was comparable to what other individual nations were doing. When instead, the 60 number for the U.S. was about the same as all the other nations combined. (But for context, the U.S. being a larger nation and major nation vis-a-vis Russia certainly has or at least had a larger Russian "diplomatic" mission than most, probably any other country). His national security team brought him the 60 number as a recommended response, and he followed their recommendation. Thinking it was one thing when instead it was something else. He never would have approved it then if he had actually understood what he was doing. So it's wrong for anyone to take that episode as evidence of Trump strength against Russia. Trump is an idiot and a boob (and now a treasonous traitor). And that episode was just another sign of it. Yesterday was FAR FAR FAR worse.

Who wants Peace, it's overrated right?...right?...who's with me?...right? Peace is build with trust, not achieved with cunning demolition of social order. Putin, using Trump and other weak minded people have managed to anger the middle class and therefore managed to get us a step closer to a real war.
