standing up to Russia and do what? put U.S. troops on Russian's border.....send the Pacific fleet and put it on Russian's coasts to make a point?......yeah, let's do that against a nuclear power country....that makes sense so you feel good about yourself and sleep better at night.
meanwhile, China has done more harm to our economy, wages and economy than Russian would ever dream of and these are the same people that don't say anything about China.
It's the brunt of jokes -- it's the backbone of how the rest of the world sees the USA. Strong and firm against Russia (USSR at one point) and their brutal regime and lack of humanity.
Again -- I know this is not life changing in our day to day lives....but this is a moment in US history that wil be significant -- and not in a positive way.
I hesitate to think Trump is really just a puppet of Putin -- I think he mishandled the press conference, the situation. He isn't made for this.......he just isn't.
He's not motivating his Allies to work with him, he's seemingly siding with adversaries...it's all upsdie down.
Does anyone agree with what Trump said at that presser?
HOLY !@#$ -- Gingrich has been a hard Trump supporter.
For him to even remotely suggest things did not go well.
There's someone out there that can save this for Trump - Not sure who - -he needs a positive, sound, reasonable Republican to step up and navigate this disaster.
(I'm so into Scandal -- there is a fixer for these things right).
They are hard at work undermining western democracies, and have been at it for a decade now. We are one of the latest victims, but not the first.
There is no difference between hacking an election to put their operative in place and occupying the country and putting one in place. It is still an attack on the republic.
This is what Russia has been doing and you people are being willfully ignorant and unpatriotic.
More than a decade.
"First, we will take Eastern Europe, then the masses of Asia, then we will encircle the United States which will be the last bastion of capitalism. We will not have to attack. It will fall like overripe fruit into our hands.
Lenin, early 1900's
"Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!"
Khrushchev, 1956
"We won't have to fire a shot, we will destroy you from within" and other similar ideas have long been attributed to speeches given by one Russian leader or another. There seems to be little proof these words were actually ever spoken but there seem to be no denials either.
oh please, you are quoting the trump hating new york times? and using just another hit piece to bolster your argument? and you are forgetting all the things obama has done in the past of similar nature? or bush 43, or clinton, or bush 41, or every other president we have had?
It's trumps responsibility to do something about it. Blaming Obama in the last months of his admistrstion is ignorant. At that point, it's up to the following administration to do something.
Russia is not a democracy and putin has never been and never will be a friend to the US. The guy is a snake. Cares about nothing more than boosting his power and personal wealth he's stripped from Russia. If you believe otherwise you're living under a rock.

I think today is the most pathetic thing that has happened in this country's history. We witnessed a spineless US President on the world stage today.
