Especially when stuff is sailing towards the fan that it WOULD be nice to have the world on board with, such as Islamoterrorism. Barack isn’t going to be any kind of sensible liaison. Trump is at least demonstrably good at discussing things sensibly and racking up respectable responses in a reasonable time frame, Cruz is more of an unknown quantity to Putin.
I don’t think so. While most Americans aren’t “fans” of Putin, I think a lot of us respect his commitment to putting his country first and doing what he thinks is best for Russia - a pretty stark contrast to what we see in the current occupant of the White House. I know for certain that a lot of voters believe that Trump would be more of a “Putin-esque” (no, that’s not an Italian spaghetti sauce) president and someone that our enemies would legitimately fear. I happen to believe that’s a good thing.
Thats what people chose. No matter what. It’s a lesser evil.
Negotiating with Kerry or Obama is like dealing with a car salesman.You just know the SOB is lying.
I saw someone mention that the other day, kind of gives me goose bumps.
Strong men respect each other. I see no harm here. Putin terrifies Obama and walks all over him.
That wont happen with Trump.
You, sir, insult car salesman.
The whole Republic is a lesser evil if we give it over to cynics.
Kind of sounds like Trump and Obama doesn't it?
Maybe you should listen to the points they make and act on them instead of inventing pathetic new ways every day to bring out your personal issues with me.
Apparently you enjoy having a limp wristed dandy as President, instead of someone who can be respected by world leaders?
Putin respects Trump. Does he respect Obama?
Putin had a long press conference today and he was on fire
Accused the Turks of licking America’s balls
I think he and the Donald could be a good match at the negotiating table
Some tidbits from today:
Putin on S-400 Deployment in Syria: Let Turkish Aviation Fly Now. “They [Turkish authorities] thought that we would turn tail and run! No, Russia is not that country. We have increased our presence in Syria, have increased the number of combat aircraft deployed there. There was no Russian air defense system there –now there’s the S-400. If before, Turkey had constantly violated Syrian airspace, let them try it now.”
—
“I don’t know if we need a [permanent] military base in Syria,” Putin said. “If we need to get someone - we’ll get them anyway.”
—
#Putin: Can’t imagine better military exercise than Russia’s op in Syria, we can train there for long time
—
Russian President Vladimir Putin has used crude language in a furious new attack on Turkey over the downing of a Russian combat jet last month. “The Turks”, he said, had “decided to lick the Americans in a certain place”.

Now that, ..that makes neo-cons and their traitorous allies heads explode.
The debate the other night had many Americans shaking their heads as the establishment Rinos seemed to be itching for war with the Russians.
They, like myself, asked a very simple question: when is the last time any American was killed by a Russian in a terrorist or any other attack in recent history? The Boston bombers don't count as they were Chechen Mooslimes.
How about NEVER! I know it is confusing to the Dr. Strangelove (Charles Krautscrewdriver) crowd that a bunch of right-wing conservatives would in any way side with a KGB guy. It frankly still amazes me.
But since he and his armed forces are killing our enemies in large numbers as they did against the Krauts in WWII, it is hard not to cheer the Rooskies on.
It is not Russians blowing themselves up in markets.
It is not Russians attacking the disabled and those who care for them here in America.
It was not a Russian soldier that killed a bunch of American troops at Fort Hood or Chattanooga, nor did they attack a cartoon contest.
So when the American people hear people on our side declare Russian and its people to be a threat to us...a giant collective WTF is shouted in one large and loud voice.
That voice at this time is Trump.
Now put that in your Chamber pot...and smoke it.
JMHO
Jedi.
With friends like that....
Or an assassin.
THAT right there is the one thing I fear. There have already been a lot of left-wing nutballs that have called for his assassination.
Should they...God forbid...succeed in that, I think that may be the 'go code' for the sane people of the US to pull out the tools and start cleaning house.
Yes, no problem with Putin and his abuses of power. He’s a good authoritarian, and no doubt some of the Americans who admire him wish he were in charge of the USA, too.
And you like them both, right?
Yes, they have similar values.
