Obama closed their U.S. COMPOUNDS and evicted 35 Russians! He didn't kiss their butts like Trump is!

Would next to nothing satisfy the complaint ?

Lets face it Obama's policy's and actions were always weak and ineffective.

Rage on ............The juvenile name calling never gets old.

Exactly.

China is working at world domination via the economy. From what I read, they are stockpiling gold to back their currency, and making trade deals all over the world.

Russia's economy is not up to this sort of competition. Oligarchs have stolen as much as they can, leaving the regular Russians somewhat dispirited, not to mention the discouraging impact of prisons terms and assissinations.

Lacking an economic path to dominance over other nations, Putin and the Kremlin work to destabilize them.

That there terrorist attacks right before the UK election seems such an obvious nudge to the right that I can't help but wonder if voters saw right through it.

It's classic. Attack. Then ride to the rescue. The Princess Bride puts this in as gentle terms as I've ever seen.

I see nothing wrong with Trump meeting Putin or any head of government.

People get worked up over nothing.

Default Donald Trump Is So Excited About Meeting Vladimir Putin That U.S. Officials Are Worried

Quote:


U.S. government officials are trying to curb President Donald Trump’s enthusiasm about meeting Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin at the upcoming G20 summit in Germany, the Associated Press reported.


Trump has not met Putin since being elected last year, despite his claim that he could meet the Russian leader even before being inaugurated. Now he is keen to hold a full bilateral meeting, two U.S. administration officials, one current and one former, told AP. Both spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Yes, it must be very exciting to meet your idol who happens to be the person who got you elected.

Trumpeters calling fake news is like Benedict Arnold calling traitor.

Here is another source, just to irk you people who tries to deflect this.

Trump's enthusiasm for Russia and Putin is dividing his White House, frustrating friends and foes alike
