Once again, Trump proves that he's the greatest thing that will ever happen to Obama's legacy. Between the foolish concessions to North Korea that no other POTUS was dumb enough to make to the groveling that POTUS is doing at the foot of the Kremlin, no one can make the argument that Trump has not taken Obama's "apology tour" to new heights.

And b/c of Trumpettes blind, cultish devotion to Trump, they will defend this diplomacy until this administration is an ugly memory. Which means that's another so-called knock on Obama that gets washed away from his record as well.

We're already seeing the results of Trump's devotees with Obama being rated the greatest POTUS of the last 40 years. So many of the criticisms that were leveled against Obama are effectively moot, while his positives get an extra layer of shine due to Republican/Trump incompetence and inability to keep pace with his successes.

I guess the agenda is to MOGA...

Obama’s foreign policy was far from good but Trump’s is so awful that it almost appears intentionally designed to be the worst policy possible.

Trump's foreign policy is whatever Putin tells him it is.

I hope the WH staff remembered to pack Trump's knee pads. He's going to need them in his meeting with the boss.

Trump saluting a North Korean general, someone who would not think twice about nuking U.S cities and killing millions of Americans. Even Obama wouldn’t be that stupid!

Just to be clear from the article...

U.S. President Donald Trump sat down with Vladimir Putin for a long-awaited summit on Monday saying he wanted good relations with Russia, after blaming Washington’s own past “foolishness and stupidity” for the countries’ hostile ties.

...
“Our relationship with Russia has NEVER been worse thanks to many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity and now, the Rigged Witch Hunt!” he tweeted before the summit began.


In case others don't get it - Obama trashed Americans in general.

Trump is specifically focused on the actions in DC.

There seems to be a recurring theme with that...

Trump is trying to kill Putin with kindness. Even though Dan Coats, the man Trump himself appointed as Director of National Security, said "the red warning lights are going off" in terms of Russia's plan to attack our democracy.

Trump might soften his voice and very passively mention the hacking, but Trump refuses to stand tall, put some bass in his voice, and say that Russia attacked us and that Russia's actions of meddling will not be tolerated.

The question is, why not? Methinks Putin has either a bunch of incriminating evidence on Trump that would prove Donald worked directly with or was aware of his campaign working with Russia, a pee pee tape, or both.

Trump is way out of his league with Putin. Putin will extract anything he wants out of Trump and Trump wont have a clue about what is really happening! What a fool Trump is!
