If telling the truth and wanting what is best for the American people not to be taken advantage is wrong, then what is right?
Great post, but you have to remember, most on this board, are just like obama, we are the bad guys and we are supposed to help everyone else, even if they continue to kick us...we apologize to them because they kicked us...
“I’m freer than colleagues who will face the voters again. I can speak my mind without fearing the consequences much. And I can vote my conscience without worry.
Poise and class go a long way when dealing with foreign dignitaries. Dissing them over and over again - not so much.
Trump's fawning over Putin speaks to being pro-Russia. He's said more bad things about Trudeau than Putin. Heck, he's said more bad things about other Americans than he has said about Putin.
It makes us wonder and our allies CLEARLY wonder.
Address my point about how demanding NATO members reach their 2% funding is "pro putin".
Bush did it, Obama did it...but suddenly now it's helping Russia to have more military spending by members of a group specifically created to oppose Russia militarily lol.
Specifically tell me HOW more NATO spending helps Russia?
Nobody here wants to directly answer that and it speaks volumes to the claim being empty political garbage and hysteria.
Lot of energy from Russia if you believe lies of Trump but if you do reality check, you can find facts that around 10% of energy (Gas) is coming to Germany from Russia.
The EU's dependency on Russia is increasing.
-Natural Gas: Russia is the biggest supplier from 22% in 2001 to 30% in 2015.
-Oil: Russia is the biggest supplier with 1/3rd of all oil to the EU.
-Putin has connections to and profits personally off of this.

Nearly half the natural gas flowing through pipelines into Germany last year came from Russia. Like the rest of the European Union, Germany relies on Russian exports as its main supply of gas and crude oil. Natural gas is the fuel where Germany’s proportion of imports from Russia is highest: it’s about 40 percent for crude oil, and about 30 percent for coal.
