Normally, having the leader of a foreign adversary against which we are involved in a proxy war.........

Putin says America is ‘burning from the inside’ and U.S. courts are being used by Trump’s rivals

Russian President Vladimir Putin lambasted the U.S. judicial system, saying it was being used by former U.S. leader Donald Trump’s political enemies to damage the Republican presidential nominee.

“They [the U.S.] are burning themselves from the inside, their state, their political system,” Putin told media editors at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on Wednesday.

“It is obvious all over the world that the prosecution of Trump, especially in court on charges that were formed on the basis of events that happened years ago, without direct proof, is simply using the judicial system in an internal political struggle,” he said, in comments translated by Reuters.

Putin would do a lot of things for Trump if he is elected, probably launder a bank deposit for him in some European country, but the result of American fealty to Russia is not only will they be strengthened, but their relationship with China will see a new opportunity lasting at least 4 years for them to consolidate any gains they both want to make.

Yeah. It appears that sides have been chosen.

Well hell, Ray Charles could see that.....I see Putin has a perfect grasp of the obvious.

Perhaps enemy democrats are upset by the truth.

At best the statist left marxinazis are self centered power brokers. At worst the statist left marxinazis are traitors to civilized humanity. Yeah, president Putin is correct, America @ current is burning from the inside due to the power & control pagans of the statist left.

In days past, imagining a world where the presumptive Repub candidate for prez boasted about his relationship with a Russian dictator, a relationship completely out of alignment with this country's foreign policy, was impossible. Now we are living in that world.

 

[berg80]

Yeah. It appears that sides have been chosen.

Indeed. Given a choice in Helsinki between believing Putin or our own intel agencies Don chose Vlad.

That singular event would have immediately disqualified any other person running for high office. Just that one thing. With Trump there have been hundreds of similarly disqualifying events for which he has not paid a price with his cultish supporters. The failed coup being most prominent among them.

Actually, having a good relationship with as many world leaders as possible, regardless of the leadership style, fits perfectly with George Washington's view of foreign policy. I'll take that over wasteful and dangerous long term foreign entanglements.

Yep, there have been so many of those events. One of the main reasons this has been so difficult to understand.

Interesting. One on the left finally admits Ukraine is a proxy war with Russia, and not all the grand-standing, flag-waving, patriotic stuff about freedom, and stuff. The parallels with Viet Nam write themselves, the only question being how long before "advisors", money and arms are not enough and we have to put soldiers on the ground?

This country's government is, and should be, opposed to virtually everything Russia does as our interests are at odds with each other's. Good relationships with foreign leaders are, of course, desirable. But not when the genesis is the common purpose of meddling to help a candidate of Putin's choice win an election.

So many they have been flushed down the collective memory hole of The Following. Though one wonders if it would matter if they were reminded of them. Their devotion to Dear Leader being absolute.

If putin endorsed the man-made climate change DOOMSDAY HOAX would libs be forced to disagree and say climate change aint so?

Actually, the salient question is how much of Europe will Trump cede to Putin if the former is re-elected? Will he honor NATO obligations if Putin asks him not to?

Man made climate change is not a hoax. Believing otherwise places you in a tiny minority of people around the world. Many of them belong to the anti-science party, the POT.

He ceded nothing of Europe to Putin in his last term, so there is no reason to expect he would do it in his next one.

Let's see, how many panting Orange Man Bad predictions came true?

WWIII - nope
Total economic destruction - nope
Dogs and cats living together - nope
People wearing white after Labor Day, the cads - Haven't seen them.

Yet, the predictions continue in the face of reality.

No it shouldn't, this country should be pushing for peaceful ties with all nations without showing favoritism to any. The Constitution provides for opportunity here, nowhere else. Long term foreign entanglements are an undue and dangerous burden on the people with no benefit.

You’re like a Largemouth Bass striking a shinny lure

Wrong as usual and totally missing the point

Which was if putin zigged to would have to zag no matter what he said
