Considering that we have two countries capable of destroying each other and most likely the world the only logical solution is for both to get along with each other.
However, the elitists will not make money in a peaceful world and war is on their minds. HRC was a warhawk who was expected to do the bidding of the elites and somehow involve the US in a war with Russia. They are trying desperately to bait the Russians with all this hacking nonsense and Putin won't bite.
Have you ever considered how this world would be if all the money spend on defense could be channeled into peaceful avenues?
Like it or not our only sensible choice is for Russia and the US to work together for a better world.

Yah. Except that CIS PM KGB Lt. Col. V. Putin was trained & indoctrinated (& presumably willingly believed) that a better world means a world dominated by the CIS (& the nomenklatura & the military & the organs, of course). In that respect, in the monomaniacal focus upon world domination, Putin's posse is very much like the radical jihadists that he likes to point to & wave around, as if those excesses somehow explained or justified his (& the CIS') excesses.
Sure, we can collaborate with the CIS - when it's in our interests. Otherwise, we opposed the USSR, the Warsaw Pact, & any number of other tinhorn wanna-be godlets, & good riddance to the lot. This little pipsqueak of an Ivan-come-lately is merely the latest incarnation of the Rus will to power. He won't be the last, either. We can always use an appetizer - helps clear the palate - until the main event comes up with China.
Russians don't really give a damn about the politics of gay rights and all that crap. It's mainly just other people in the world pointing fingers like children on the play ground and expecting Russians to be like them. It's all a waste of time.
Great comparison. The US is better place to be poor because of the weather. We really pat our selves on the back for having such a superior civilization under California sunshine. If Russia had better weather and more arable land , I rather be there. Its actually free . You can disappear into in Asiatic Russia. If only it were like Southern California.
Not true.
US is a better place for the poor because of the presence of the Democrats, ( the left) on governmental level, where Russia is run exclusively by the ultra-right forces.
This, and because American economy overall is bigger and better of course, while Russian economy is dependent on foreign investments. *Investors* want good money on their returns - they don't care about Russia's poor. Neither does the government, that's all about "making money."
Russia is interfering in the political process all over the place. US, France, Germany..we'll see who's next. I've heard things about Australia and New Zealand as well.
Poland is a big ally of the US and Poland for historical reasons cannot be friends with Russia. Poland was partitioned for 2 centuries between Germany, Austria-Hungary and Russia. Under Russian occupation, they tried to destroy Polish culture and language, kids were not allowed to speak Polish at school or church. Poland regained independence in 1918. Then during WWII, they signed pact Ribbentrop-Molotov to invade and split the country between them. After WWII, they installed pupped soviet government against people's will and imposed communism for 50 years. They massacred Polish officers at Katyn. Nowdays they are militarizing Kaliningrad. They took Crimea under force. Many Ukrainians fled to Poland to rebuild their lives.
Would you want to be friends with a neighbor that hacks into your personal computer to take advantage of you? Can anyone say, "Suckers!"
I think Putin has a lot on Trump, perhaps his tax returns and more, and while he released it all on Hillary, he knew there is more to gain by making Trump his pawn. When has there been a newly elected president more worshipful of a Russian ex KGB agent? When have we seen a president nominate a Secretary of State so obviously designed to please that same Russian ex KGB agent?
Think about Trump's ex campaign manager Paul Manafort. All Putin had to do is go through Paul Manafort, tell him he has the goods on Trump and if Trump plays balls, he won't release them.

I personally don't understand why we need enemies?
Since the end of our territorial advances, and our bordering nations, realizing we were a force not to be reckoned with, we have forced ourselves upon other nations and created one enemy after another. Woodrow Wilson passed the Nation Building Act and it gets us all up in other nations business and creates an enemy of any nation, that is not some form of democracy. He wanted us all up in the League of Nations and this One World Government idea. Now, we are in the UN, and guess what. They are trying to rule us and the people of the United States, by-passing anything our congress or the states themselves have to say about it.
