Trump is playing power politics and laying it on the line.
For those who bitch about “Oh lord, how will he deal with Putin??!!”
Wellllll...
Like this. Play by my rules or go take a hike. We’ll see then how far Putin and others of his ilk want to take it.
Agreed.
This was a no-brainier for Donald. All win, no loss.
It reminds me of when RR fired the air trafficking controllers. It sent a message: I MEAN what I say, and I’m not afraid to be non-conventional.
That’s how Reagan played it.
The Russians wouldn’t give on any point .. and demanded USA give everything.
Reagan got up from the table and walked out. The same idiot media went ballistic.
But, that’s when the Russians knew they had a hard-nose guy who was not going to fold and bend like the others. It would appear to me that Trump is doing the same thing .. just a slight change in the method.
