Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said Friday that President Trump is “groveling at the feet of our adversaries” shortly after the president called for Russia to be reinstated the Group of Seven (G-7).
Durbin in a tweet mockingly quoted Trump saying of himself, “Nobody has been tougher on Russia than Donald Trump,” before adding: “Now watch President Trump grovel at the feet of our adversary and punish our strongest allies,” a reference to recent tariffs on steel and aluminum imports.
While speaking to reporters on Friday prior to departing for Canada to attend the G-7 summit, the president said he has been “Russia’s worst nightmare” but called for the country to be a part of the economic talks.
“With that being said, Russia should be in this meeting,” Trump said. "Why are we having a meeting without Russia being in the meeting?"
In 2014, Russia was ousted from the then-Group of Eight after annexing Crimea and supporting pro-Kremlin separatists in eastern Ukraine.
“Whether you like it or not, and it may not be politically correct, but we have a world to run,” Trump continued. “And in the G-7, which used be the G-8, they threw Russia out. They should let Russia come back in because we should have Russia at the negotiating table.”

I still remember Durbin comparing our military to Nazis. I hope there is dirt on this a-hole that gets released too.

Nice try, Durbin. The Groveler-in-Chief was Barack Hussein Obama.

I'm surprised that no one has punched the teeth out of The Turban's lying seditious face yet...
Maybe they want him to "look purty" when he goes up on one of the DC cherry trees...

If it benefits the rest of the world economically to have Russia at the table then Trump is correct. But if their exclusion is of little consequence then the exclusion of the country try as a punishment should stand.
How funny is it for Curbing to even attempt to portray DJT as one who would “grovel” before anyone? Obviously he is confusing MAGA with the “apologizer in chief” who served before him and spent much of his time flying around the world bowing and scraping on his “apology tours”.
