“...How can this happen if Trump is Russias puppet? Why would Putin shoot at his compatriots military?...”
That is exactly what I was thinking also. These type of scenarios allow President Trump to distance himself from the lies and scandal that the socialists have tried so hard to prove in the media.
President Trump has a way of making it look as if he has lost, and then with seemingly minutes to spare, BAM, he wins again.
He has to be a very frustrating opponent.
I would like to believe that relations back channel are much better than what is communicated publicly. But I don’t.
Mattis and Tillerson were terrible choices.
