Exulted by Donald Trump's victory in the U.S., the Kremlin is counting the days to his inauguration and venting its anger at Barack Obama's outgoing administration, no holds barred.

Careful not to hurt chances for a thaw in U.S.-Russia relations, President Vladimir Putin and other Russian officials have deferred questions about their plans for future contacts with Trump and any agenda for those talks until he takes office on Friday.

Trump's open admiration of Putin has brought wide expectations of improved Moscow-Washington relations, but Trump has not articulated a clear Russia policy. His Cabinet nominees include both a retired general with a hawkish stance on Russia and an oil executive who has done extensive business in Russia.

Remember when Obambi told the Russians that he’d be able to be more flexible AFTER his re-election was over?

It’s going to take a long time to clean up the stench in the White House left by the obama administration.

Russia is our natural ally (white, Christian, heterosexual).

We need to make an alliance with them to repatriate the invading rapefugees.

The bigger problem is that Obama will continue to hold court across town.

He isn’t going away anytime soon.

I also don’t think it’s an accident that so many black members of congress appear to be leading the anti-Trump movement.

Putin is “not our ally.” The Russians are merely taking advantage of the idiot Left to further erode the American people’s faith in their government, their Constitution, and their way of life.

Divide and Conquer!

The forces of evil are hard at work in this country through Globalism, Illegal Immigration, “Lawfare,” and a corrupt Leftist Media. Russia merely sees the opportunity to assist America’s suicide.

So, along with “trump is a racist” he is now characterized as having “open admiration for Putin”.

Trump's open admiration of Putin

As opposed to 0bama's open admiration of every dictator on the planet.

They just know they’ll be dealing with a straight-shooter come Friday afternoon. Instead of a pathological liar, fraud, and imposter.

On another note, there must be a Lazamataz-ski count-downski thread, somewhere. They’re obviously running one, too. LOL

;)

Indeed.

Remember what happened right after Reagan took office, could some kind of surprise be in store?

.. he’d be able to be more flexible AFTER his re-election....

However, not flexible enough to save his pathetic “legacy.”

Easier for the Rooskies just to hack Laz’s thread. We see a lot of that at the Lab here lately.
