“DO NOT CONGRATULATE” Vladimir Putin—Unless You Happen to be Saint Barack
Canada Free Press ^ | 03/21/18 | Judi McLeod

Protocol is allowed by the media for Saint Obama but not for the devil they make Donald Trump out to be

Why is it that when the Washington Post is caught with its houndstooth pants down, the Mainstream and Social Media are always found looking pointedly the other way?

The WaPo’s “LEAD” story going viral today makes it seem that Donald Trump was the first—and only—president to ever congratulate Vladimir Putin on an election victory when, in point of fact, former president Barack Obama did the same thing, only in a much more gushing way:

Who can forget Obama’s infamous hot mike moment... “tell Vlad that after I’m reelected. ..”

Well, the press certainly has memory loss on that one.

I have seen no proof backed up by actual fact that Putin was elected by other that winning more votes. There are no outcries by the Russians. There are no dissidents screaming foul. There is not a centilla of evidence. I surmise the people in Russia actually like their president and elected him for another 6 years in a democratic vote.

One more example of the double standard(s) the demodummies and liberal media hypocrites put on display on a regular basis. Anything deemed “negative” is dumped on Trump.

So did Vlad tell the Donald that now he’s been re-elected, he will have more flexibility?

Every day saint barack is digging his hole deeper... the media is helping him! So many have the absolute lack of knowing who this individual is.. he is the epitome of someone you cannot trust and someone who thinks so highly of himself that he can act like the dictator he was. He threw all the laws and rules out... they are not for a king.... he elevated himself above everyone else.. he even holds his head above himself... he did more damage than anyone in canada knows or cares about.

As for speaking to putin.... there had better be dialogue with him and others... there had better be a sense of who he is and Trump has the best language of anyone, to get along with those leaders! He is criticized by elite snobs for everything he does and does not do. The media is making it easy for Trump to win again in a landslide... they have divided the nation into those who have and want to make the rest slaves... and the one who has but wants to see everyone have it also!!

I recall obozo saying on the hot mike “after MY election”. The TV pundits always say that the obozo said “after the election”.

That was before Putin committed the greatest crime against humanity ever: allegedly supporting Trump over Saint Hillary the Shrill. There can be no forgiveness or congratulations after that. < /s>

If Obama saved a child's life... by running into the street and pushing the child out of the way of a speeding car the press would hail him a hero.

If Trump did the same... Trump would be condemned for ‘grandstanding’.

CNN would question Trump's motives and muse about the possibility he might have had an affair with the driver... who was ‘really’ tring to run him over... (MSNBC's take on the subject would be worse - where truth NEVER matters and 'passion' trumps reality every time)...

The press has become the propaganda arm of the democrat party - that choice will destroy them.
