what do you suppose Trump lambasting Putin in public would have resulted in?
Probably a spanking from Putin. Though we've heard that Trump enjoys being spanked, so probably more like getting sent to bed without his supper. Now that would be punishment for the fat orange man.
Honestly, you guys have been trying to tell us how tough Trump is, and now you're making excuses for how weak he appears. Make up your minds.
C'mon now. Texans are smart people, and you know full well that the issue with Trump and his dealings with Russia is not about him wanting "peace" with Russia. I'm sure you'd be hard-pressed to find a person who would say they don't want the US to be on better terms with Russia. That's not what this is about.
People are upset because Russia has been proven to meddle in democratic elections around the globe, including ours. It's common knowledge at this point, and the evidence for it abounds. Russia wanted to do whatever they could to sway the election in Trump's favor, and Trump refuses to acknowledge it or give Russia their rightful blame. It's dishonest of him to say otherwise, and a slap in the face to any patriotic American who can't stand the fact that Putin stuck his dirty little fingers in our pie. Seeing our president stand next to Putin, knowing what he did, and affording him compliments as opposed to taking a hard line on him made Trump look like a little weakling.
Of course, you already know all this. I get it. It's embarrassing when the person you support messes up, or has to admit an adversarial country might've helped get him elected. It's a hard pill to swallow, but it needs get down anyway. Trump messed up. We all need to hold his feet to the fire.
If Trump would have been harsher... Liberals would scream he's trying to cause a war, it's Armageddon!
Trump is careful ... Liberals scream he's too soft
pfft Trump Derangement Syndrome. Tuning into liberal media to get your fix on liberal outrage.
What in God's name is Trump Derangement Syndrome? Sounds like some petty Fox News BS. All these stupid terms getting made up everyday by a bunch of whiny and immature people acting like spoiled children. How about we let the kids be in charge of schoolyard namecalling and you go back to acting your age?
This is not about harsh vs soft. It's about strong vs. weak. Trump is weak on Russia. He has evidence handed to him from the best intelligence agencies in the world showing what Russia did and he refuses to acknowledge it because it might reflect badly on him. Where I come from, that's called weakness. He needs to stand up tall and take a firm stance against Russia, back his own people, and put his country before himself or his ego.
Democrats can’t make up their minds why they think Trump is a traitor. If Trump wants peace, they will say he’s a traitor. If trumps wants war,, they will he’s a traitor.
Whatever is the flavor of the day.
Trump's idea of "peace" with Russia is rolling over and allowing them free rein to meddle at will without consequence. In fact, to deny they meddled at all, because Vlad told him so. So there!
Thanks, but no thanks. I love my country, even if you don't.
Stop pretending that outrage over this is just coming from Democrats/leftists. Nothing to start WW3 over. But that doesn't mean you don't at least call them out over such attacks. He's failing to defend the U.S.
