The SLAM was considered too hellish even for nuclear war vs the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War and was cancelled. It's capabilities were beyond horrifying.

Nicknamed "the flying crowbar."

My bet is that Putin is bluffing.

Blowing smoke is more like it.

MSM? I am not a dem, so what do I care. Having said that, the media and talking heads (FOX, Coulter, Limbaugh) plays the president like a flute, so I guess he is a puppet with many masters.

More and more people making that claim everyday and some still playing one on the webernet too.

As long as they are in compliance with Kremlin policy and helping Putin with his goals that's all the matters.

I am really starting to think that it is the Dems that are secretly in bed with Putin while they try to blame Trump to sway public opinion against him.

Why else would the Dems want to rein back our offensive and defensive capacities?

Why would the Dems be sowing such discord for the last 2 years in an attempt to undermine Trump and divide the country?


They tell us that the Russians were trying to divide us and spread confusion during the election but that is what they and their Lefty media has been doing every single day.

The Clintons had far more to do with Russia and Putin directly than Trump ever did with his failed hotel project.



Who are the real puppets of Putin?

How specifically?

The Russians don't give two sh*** about American poitical parties. They go with whoever is going to be soft on them, and who's most likely to weaken the country. Conservatives seem to believe that he's on their side, but Putin only cares about Russia, and he would've done anything to avoid a white house with Hillary in it who Putin despises. The second a pro Russia democrat comes out Putin might give up on Trump as well.

Because it provides reasonable cover for the US to refuse to get involved in anything over there. Thats if you assume Trump is a Russian puppet. The truth is probably more complex and nuanced.

Anyone have a explanation that makes sense ?
Why doesn't Putin just pull some strings and get what he wants ? Any puppet master worth their salt has control of their puppet. When they are done with them they normally just put them back in a box until needed again. Blowing them up would end the puppet show. The show was sold out and the democrats bought all the tickets. I suppose they will demand a refund now. They were duped, again !!!

Putin threatens to target the US if it deploys missiles in Europe
https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/20/puti...in-europe.html

Putin threatens retaliation if US puts new missiles in Europe

https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/pu...8-96361810efb6
Well, I m think in since Putin wants to destroy America and the EU if he cant own it, and, Trump cant order the military to target America amd our allies with its own missiles....then yah..Putin would have to fire them off himself.

What kind of puppet is that. Even a sock puppet has to be controlled.
Can't pull their strings and make them do what the puppet master wants.
The whole puppet meme by the left has crumbled. Nothing more than a smear.

The Democrat relationship with all Countries is trust but verify at best and we verified and Putin lied. Just cause Trump , who idolizes Putin , wants to hamstring Americas protection agencies and allies, s in order to keep his Presidency of the Putin fan club...doesnt mean the Clintons are in bed with Russia. See how silly that is?

Just because Trump released enconomic sanction.s on Oligarch Derapaska akaPutin in the final hours before Democrats took Congress...doesnt mean the Clintons are in bed with Russia. Still silly.

Just because 13 Republicans spent Americas 4th of July in RUSSIA atempting to apologize to Putin for sanctions and for believing EUR that it was indeed Putins poisoning of EUR citizens... by asking him if "we" could start over. since they wernt there to "lay blame"...
Doesn't mean the Clintons are in bed with ...awe you know the rest.

Putin is seeking lover's revenge for his breakup with Obama.


Trump is treating putin badly and putin's heart is broken. no longer will he be deferred to by a US president.


No longer will Obama be around to defend him.


No longer will Obama be around to let putin play among government databases.


No longer will Putin expect to get any whispered messages form Obama through Medvedev.


No more uranium for Putin!


Just Trump horning in on Russia's energy sales to Europe and strengthening nato and building up the US military
