If I am not mistaken, the Us and Russia were on good terms during George Bush's term. Obama is antagonistic to just about every country besides Iran. Russia is the one stabilizing factor in the Middle East since the inept US foreign policy under Obama/Clinton.
Putin is more of a nationalist than a globalist. I don't hear about mass migration into Russia and he is not part of the EU. I believe the media is owned by globalist billionaires and have conditioned people to believe certain things about Putin. He just wants a sovereign country like Trump.
Putin is extremely popular in Russia. People like having a leader who is dedicated to the interests of their country.
That's a loaded statement and an argument that screams ignorance about the realities of life in Russia.
Russia does not have free press. Journalists who are critical of Putin and his regime end up jailed, exiled, or worse. It's difficult to say what people think because they only see and hear a positive view of Putin unless they are specifically risking their livelihoods and lives to seek out further information and dissent.
Why do American conservatives long for an authoritarian style dictator to lead them? Is it because they are unable to think for themselves? Do you conservatives know the danger of this? It has happened in the past, and it NEVER ends well.
Learn to think for yourselves. Once you do, you will see what the history of a violent oligarch like Putin has behind him, and why someone like this is a direct threat to Democracy.
And what's more important to Trump, the interests of his country or his many business interests in Russia?
His son said they have very little there. If McDonalds can build places, why not Trump? Are you worried about improving the economy for other countries?
If Hillary and Puin liked each other, there would be a 100 million stories about haw awesome that is. If Trump was a Dem yu would see the same....this is a fight of the people verses the elites that have been running the country to their benefit (how rich has Hillary become taking money to support whatever she is paid to support).
In fact, Russia is leaving its communist past behind and should be encouraged to continue to work together with America for peace in Europe and the Middle-East.
The last thing our media needs to do is warmongering against Russia unless the establishment wants to create a self-fulfilling prophecy that does turn the Russian “Bear” into our enemy in order to distract us from the many domestic enemies of our great republic.
President Putin is not the enemy, he is against global elite, not Americans. So don't make Putin or Russia the enemy, it is pathetic.

The puppets of the wealthy cannot be hidden from the public any longer.
Trump has expressed admiration for Putin. Putin is a borderline dictator; he has silenced his critics with imprisonment and is widely believed to have killed at least two rivals. He has enriched himself tremendously through corruption. Is this what Trump believes is an admirable quality in a leader of a major power? Is this what Trump strives to be? That is what scare me about Trump.
