I think you’ve touched on why a lot of conservative americans have an odd respect for Putin. At least he seems to go in to win. We have not had that since they pulled Saddam out of that hole. And even that victory was thrown away.
I totally agree. I don’t like Putin and I don’t trust him. But one has to acknowledge that he will defend his country. Something Obama would never do in a million lifetimes.
I agree. At least with Putin, you get the feeling that the “international community” can go pound sand because he is looking out Russian interests— which should be his job! Russias interests are not necessarily congruent with America’s. After watching the Obama apology tours, several European nations commit suicide, and an increasingly demanding global governance movement, taking care of number one seems to be long overdue. I think that is what many are hoping for with Trump.
Just like Trump.
People really do respect a man with manhood.
One thing I'll give Putin, there is no question about his love for his country. I've missed that in our leader for the last eight years.
I think we respect him as a nationalist who sticks up for his own nation, and recognizes the globalists as enemy.
Incidentally, he is an enemy of the Clinton crime syndicate, which I am starting to view as a group simply seeing the Obama weakness all around them, and interpreting the Mideast and Africa as a TON OF LOOT, WEAKLY GUARDED.
For years, Putin has been the only one opposing them.
The reason conservative Americans respect Putin is that he is a LEADER who loves his country as opposed to the Kenyan Klown who lives in the White Mosque.
