The top 4 news items at the WaPo are about Trump.
He is smart. It’s not like he lied. It’s happening all over social media. Blaming Trump for this. In the world of DEMS. If something bad happens it was the fault of the Republican President before them if something good happens they own it. It’s like we’re all in Jr. High.
Luckily the only people lapping it up are those who so badly want to.
It’s fake news but if President Trump would rely on some talented advisors he could have made a much more effective statement.
One would think...
What Trump actually said is that Putin was savvy for waiting until he was out of office.
And the dishonest MSM has put an unbelievable spin on that.
While simultaneously ignoring this.
Putin OWNS the BIDEN CRIME FAMILY!! He IS AN EVIL GENIUS....he was SMART enough NOT to do this crap while TRUMP was in office!
One can consider one’s enemy smart and respect his abilities without supporting what he is doing. Apparently, Dems are too stupid to know this. Instead, they praise Biden who talks big while giving our enemies (China, Russia, Iran) what they want. Trump did not lose two countries in his first year and a month, Biden did. Dems are mentally ill.
Praise is obviously completely fake news. It’s important to recognize that the guy on the otherside of the table isn’t a monster but has goals, plans, schemes etc. By acknowledging there strengths and failures you can actually strategize to concur, contain, negotiate etc. Policy by cheerleading by rhetoric, one liners etc is exactly why Trump succeeds where all others have failed. Bush - Georgia, Obama - Crimea, Biden - Ukraine. Trump - calm. Putin is a Thug, Tyrant, KGB etc. That’s how all the others tried to contain Russia. Completely failed, all of them.

The spin will go something like this:
Putin is a dictator.
Trump says Putin is very smart.
Trump admires Putin and wishes he could be like him.
Trump will be a dictator like Putin if elected in 2024.
Meanwhile, re: Biden’s incompetence and dementia...crickets.
The lie isn’t that Trump said Putin was smart.
The BALDFACED lie is he praised Putin.
Everywhere you go today, if the DNCMedia allows, go online and protest this use of the idea that Trump praised Putin.
“Smart” does not equal “good”; pointing out someone is smart does not mean that you’re in favor of that person or his actions.
Ted Bundy had an IQ of 136. When I point that out I’m simply presenting a fact, I’m certainly not saying that I support Ted Bundy or anything he’s ever done.
Trump is the Master at trolling the media. He’s laughing his ass off at them.
Putin saw repeated weakness in both ObamaIdiot and BidenIdiot.
Further, deep down in the back of Putin’s mind, he is probably whispering to himself, ‘come mess in my back yard again and mess with an election (2014) that would have likely put a pro-Russian Ukrainian government in place rather than the current Ukrainian government. Bet.
I despise Putin. He is a brilliant geopolitical tactician who is willing to ruthlessly pursue his own interests regardless of human cost. Just because I despise the man doesn’t mean I don’t recognize his intelligence. Obviously, smart people can also be evil.
Putin supports rebels in Ukraine to create unrest and “breakaway” republics.
Years later Putin recognizes those republics as independent.
Putin sends military to stop Ukrainian aggression against the independent republics.
I would call that “Very Smart”
Too bad the US could not do that in Cuba, Hungary and Czechoslovakia when it had the chance.
It is smart to take advantage of the situation, and of the weakened US that Biden and his handlers have brought about. Biden won't stop Putin from invading Ukraine, even taking over the entire country. He (Biden) will make sure that there are safe spaces for LGBQT Ukrainians and he'll make sure portable vaccination clinics are set up to ensure everyone gets boosted. I wish I could say that is satire but I don't think it is. I guarantee you somewhere in the Biden admin there are emails floating around between concerned staffers addressing exactly these topics. Guaranteed. They may not make them public or take action, but these are their focus, not those "toxic masculinity" types in their uniforms...
