As No_Recess said, he is a politician like the rest of them. Russia is just like America. It has the same power structure, it has the same institutions, it has the same interests.
Be careful about drinking too much of the government and media Kool-aid, it is bad for ya.
If all of this was as true and obvious as you claim, why is he even president? Why does he win elections? Are the elections not real? At least, as real as ours?
I think most of what you read about Putin is at best exaggerated, and at worst completely fabricated.
The story is, some guy in Russia who said mean things about Putin gets murdered, and the claim is that Putin had him killed. Yet, millions of Americans say mean things about Trump every day. Does that mean if one of them gets murdered, Trump personally ordered it?
You would think that if Putin was such a killer, who wielded such absolute control over Russia, that no one would dare run against him.
I wish i lived in your fairytale land. Everything there must be so nice.
Like loves to watch child pornography and rape children bad? Seems there is an endless amount of hate against him when at worst he's guilty of having his friends make facebook posts against Hillary.
?
Yes I honestly think he's a bad guy. Sure, he's no Hitler, but come on; do you honestly think he's a good guy?
"Credit Suisse has described Russian wealth inequality as so extreme compared to other countries that it "deserves to be placed in a separate category."One study estimates that "the wealth held offshore by rich Russians is about three times larger than official net foreign reserves, and is comparable in magnitude to total household financial assets held in Russia.""
Romney is a Mormon idiot......how is Russia our biggest threat? military? economy?
I'm not a huge Romney fan myself, but I'm not sure what his religion has to do with any of this. How are his comments on Russia, the military, the economy or any of the other things you disagree with him on figure into the fact that he's a Mormon. If he were any other religion and had said exactly the same things you're taking issue with, would you be saying, "Romney is a Lutheran idiot," or "Romney is a Catholic idiot"? I doubt it very much. Somehow, if you can't badmouth someone sufficiently based on the pertinent facts, you can throw in a mention of his religion and that might tip the scales and make you sound like you know what you're talking about.
And America has to have its way around the world exactly why?
Every country in the world, from a superpower to the smallest island in the Pacific, leverages what power it has to get its way. To think otherwise is naive.
One can only hope that the most powerful countries have an ethos of benevolence in addition to serving their own.

If Hellion1999 is being paid to post drivel, congratulations to him. Sadly, I suspect he does it for free.
