Democrats, the Never Trumpers, the media and the wobbly establishment Republicans who all seem aghast at the outcome of a single news conference hosted by Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin
I was a child, young adult, aspiring young military man and aged warrior of the Cold War between the United States and the former Soviet Union. During my time in the military, I trained for—and became proficient at—combating the Russian hordes, or their surrogates, anywhere in the world. As a fighter pilot who really embraced the profession of arms, I must say that I have always held a strong bias against the nation-state associated with Russia. I still do not trust a Russian as far as I can throw one—nothing personal, just an abundance of caution based on historical actions, not words. Why do I feel this way? It is because the wisdom of years of experience dictates that actions are far more important than rhetoric in measuring threats. Thus, I advised candidate Trump to always keep the Russians at arm’s length. For the most part, both Candidate Trump and President Trump did just that. Perhaps this is why I am so confused by the reaction of the Democrats, the Never Trumpers, the media and the wobbly establishment Republicans who all seem aghast at the outcome of a single news conference hosted by Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
What IDIOT in the Deep State or DemoncRAT hierarchy came up with the Russia Russia Russia strategy? Now they’re stuck with it and their justifications for it keep getting more and more bizarre.
If I referred to those Mexicans, or those Guatamalens or those Kenyans. Would that be racism?
When we say: those Russians is there possibly some type of pre-conceived prejudice and bias built in to that ad hominem?
Is it racist to attribute an ethnic stereotype of Russian?
John Podesta came up with it the night they lost to Trump.
I wish Russia would return to communism so Democrats would go back to defending them.
Fischer begins by making fun of the weak character of Trump's media critics: his critics think everyone is smart except Donald J. Trump. That's why the critics all are billionaires and all got elected President. Only Trump does not know what he is doing. Only Trump does not know how to negotiate with Vladimir Putin. Heck, even Anderson Cooper knows how to stand up to Putin.
====================================
Anderson Cooper knows how to stand up to Putin?
Now that I would pay to see.
Oh, those Russians: final words uttered in the song Rasputin, sung by Boney M. That group never hit it off in the US, but were popular in Europe.
Egermency. Everyone to get from street. Glookester harbor....- the Russians are coming.
IMHO the constant visceral and near violent hatred of President Trump has (#RustyIrony) helped him. Especially with people who may have been very marginal and lukewarm to him at first. Only the most twisted and disturbed among us want to join a lynch mob. That’s what the media and “progressives” are becoming when anyone who even breathes a word of non-hostility (not even support)... can’t do business, enjoy a meal or even be in public without being harassed by vulgar shouting mobs (or profanity filled Twitter trolls!). To anyone paying attention… Trump’s protesters have become what they claim to oppose... fascists! See’em #WalkAway
If the world was anywhere close to rational, this piece would be at the top of the New York Times or Washington Post editorial page, followed by rounds on every political talk show and cable news network.
