I guess if you're a tough President you must go around the world attacking nations that have done nothing to you.  Huh....who knew. :lmao:

This place is seeing infections of TDS at a level I didn’t know existed before.

Pretty amazing to watch actually….and weird.  It’s pretty hard to look away.  Like, am I seeing what I think I’m seeing?

The best is when they claim "I'm not just anti-Trump I dislike Biden too"  yet have 100-1 negative posts about Trump vs Biden.  :lol:

I see it. Clear as day.  I laughed hard as hell when one actually proclaimed “We are the true Republicans.”

I mean…  :lol:

Salty Liberaltarians voting “none of the above” as they scream unchaste, righteous virtue.

Then claim the problem with Republicans is we don't stick together.  :lol:  

Best is the one who harps fiscal responsibility but is willing to borrow to no end to fight an enemy who really isn't that great of threat to us.

Why would you attribute a tough leader as someone who needs to attack an phantom enemy that hasn't done anything to us.   Tough can just as easily be showing restraint.  

Sweden and Denmark did under pressure from the US and the EU.   Why wouldn't someone want to join NATO.  They don't make you stand up to your end of the agreement and the largest military in the world is committed to defending you.   


Then why are we pointing out Putin didn’t attack under the previous admin if we had no intentions of doing anything to stop him. It’s called bluffing. It’s like anti war liberals voting for Reagan  because they like his slogan peace through strength. “Well I like the peace part but won’t support him ever exercising the strength part.”

 

So Sweden and Finland had to be pressured, even though it’s a no brainier?!? Interesting. If the latter they would have joined long ago.  Amazing how Finland was able to join no problem without Russia invading. 9_9

Well to start I didn't say Trump would have done nothing if Russia attacked.   I'm simply saying I feel he would have done more diplomatically.   The US and England wanted NOTHING to do with peace.   You are a blind fool if you don't think Johnson and the US didn't want this to happen.   I do not think Trump would have taken that same stance.

It also wouldn't have been just a bluff....even liberal rags/outlets had the guts to admit that Trump was harder on Russia than Obama.  Trump was on TV's all over the world telling Germany how foolish they were for relying so much on Russian Energy. 

Keep in mind I didn't then and don't now support some of what he did with Russia.   

https://www.npr.org/2018/07/20/630659379/is-trump-the-toughest-ever-on-russia?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=20180720&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR37H_OhF0hv6ds3b-Bno0dc0OLvHOV3XTmFBQI6VFgJlUMY0_bsGPrmdco_aem_Ab0CEfVTc8UJV2FxVkp4MgD201ubDXz0PFKu8zt8Bxl6CFf4JuJYB90239PkN3j1VnRFiAdWEVZ6o-OmjeVzAER9

That might sound like hyperbole, but in this case, there's actually some basis for the president's boast.

"When you actually look at the substance of what this administration has done, not the rhetoric but the substance, this administration has been much tougher on Russia than any in the post-Cold War era," said Daniel Vajdich, senior fellow at the Atlantic Council.

Take military spending: Trump sought to add $1.4 billion for fiscal year 2018 to the European Deterrence Initiative — a military effort to deter Russian aggression that was initially known as the European Reassurance Initiative. That's a 41 percent increase from the last year of the Obama administration. The president also agreed to send lethal weapons to Ukraine — a step that Obama resisted. And Trump gave U.S. forces in Syria more leeway to engage with Russian troops.

While we’re certainly taking advantage of a poor miscalculation by Russia, it certainly hasn’t played out politically. I can’t imagine western leadership wanted this to happen without swift resolution if they actually wanted to be reelected, which we’re seeing play out. It certainly doesn’t help oil prices or inflation in general.

Good, I’m glad he was tough with Russia even though he said some pretty absurd things to make one think otherwise. And I hope he would have militarily checked any authoritarian government who thinks they can invade an annex sovereign nations lands (even to your dismay).

NATO wanted this conflict.....you are kidding yourself to think otherwise.

Shows what you really know that you didn't know he was tough on Russia.   Must have fell for the propaganda huh.

So we should only step in when an authoritarian govt invades?   Shouldn't we have a responsibility to every citizen of every authoritarian govt?  I mean come on neocon don't you want freedom for everybody?  :lol:

What in the world are you talking about. I just said good, glad he was. I’m merely pointing out the hypocrisy of those against supporting Ukraine while implying Trump was tough but wouldn’t have had a similar response.

No, any government that annexes another nations land, which has just been Russia in recent history.

So even if their are atrocities going on fuck em.....as long as no territorial lines are crossed.  :lol:  

There is no hypocrisy....a president can be tough on a country but not feel the need to borrow $200 billion to defeat them.   FFS man why can you not separate the two?  No Trump supporter that I know suggests we shouldn't come from a position of strength however how that is used is another thing. 

Its cute you trust NATO so much.  :lol:

In 2016 Conservatives claimed Putin was better off with Hillary in Power and he was on her side. Is that something you still believe?

Well Hillary did sell them uranium and mining rights, hit the reset button, allowed them as part of the Obama administration to invade Crimea with virtually no consequences....what do you think?  Oh I forgot took millions and millions from oligarchs are those connected to them.   Want more.

It seems to me that in 2016 if Putin has a wish list, being trusted by Republicans/MAGA more than the CIA would be a dream come true.  That was Trump’s doing. 

Weakening NATO would also be on Putin’s wish list as part of his expansionist plans. Trump was doing his best to fuck NATO over too. 

Putin formulated his takeover of Ukraine instead of stopping at Crimea during Trump’s time in the Whitehouse and because no one would tell him no or tell him the truth he went ahead with the plans anyway.  Maybe he decided MAGA would continue with their civil war and keep the US tide up.  Maybe he was relying on his allies in the Republican Party keep any military aid from reaching Ukraine. It almost worked. 
 

In the end helping Trump get elected was a win for Putin the first time.  It exacted revenge on America for the damage Reagan did to the USSR.  
 

Unfortunately for Putin, Biden prevailed over MAGA and Russia is in a far worse place as a result.

Hey, I get it, be suspicious of everything to do with Putin. He has Billions of dollars and can buy lots of politicians. 
 

 

President Donald Trump went to "extraordinary lengths" to keep details from his conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin secret – even from officials within his own administration, The Washington Post reported this weekend, citing unnamed sources.

After meeting with Putin at the 2017 Group of 20summit in Hamburg, Germany, Trump took his interpreter's notes and told him not to discuss the meeting with anyone, including other U.S. officials, the Post reported.
