Dem senator: Trump groveling at the feet of our adversaries
The Hill ^ | 06/08/18 | Aris Folley

Posted on 06/08/2018 9:16:25 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

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.”

RIGHT! He's grovelling at the feet of our enemies, like North Korea, by forcing them to give up their nukes!

And he's hurting our allies, by imposing tough conditions on Iran!

GEAUX DURBIN GEAUX! You get that MEAN OLD TRUMP!

LOL at your face, DICK.

Turbin and Schumcky are both issuing asinine statements about President Trump’s important summits this week and next week. They are both hoping for failure and doing whatever they can to bring it about.

Two disgusting, execrable POS.

These pieces of crap in the swamp need to shut their mouths up and learn a bit. If Trump were antagonizing Putin they’d be shooting their mouths off at that. Scum of the earth who put politics above country.

Did this coward even read Obama’s Iran deal? Now they have proved Obama violated the law and gave Iran access to our banking system! And Durbin accuses Trump of groveling. Stop.

Good direction, but I think this is more accurate.

Democrat first, America second dead last.
