So much for the lunatic charge that Trump is ‘in Putin’s pocket’
American Thinker ^ | 09/03/2019 | Thomas Lifson

Die-hard Trump haters continue to maintain that the President of the United States is in thrall to, or maybe being blackmailed by Russia’s President Putin. As a corollary, they still push the notion that Russia will corrupt the 2020 presidential election, so that if and when Trump wins, they will deny him legitimacy.

The crashing and burning of the Mueller effort to prove this thesis means nothing to the deluded dead-enders. But the stupidity of this charge is refuted by the power play President Trump’s Secretary of Energy Rick Perry carried out over the holiday weekend. Via Reuters:

“We’re helping Poland to reduce its dependence on Russian gas,” U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry told a news conference in Warsaw after meeting officials from Poland and Ukraine.

The Polish government official responsible for energy infrastructure, Piotr Naimski, said Poland, which has increased purchases of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the United States in recent years, would be able to send six billion cubic meters of gas to Ukraine starting from 2021 compared to the current capability of 1.5 bcm.

“We will take every effort to diversify gas supplies to Ukraine, which is now completely dependent on Russian deliveries,” Naimski told the same conference.

Perry, Naimski and Ukraine’s Secretary of National Security Oleksandr Danylyuk signed a memorandum of understanding to enhance security of gas supplies in the region via LNG supplies from the U.S. through Poland’s and Ukraine’s infrastructure which still has to be expanded.

Russia’s domination of natural gas supply to Europe, with multiple pipelines running through Ukraine, has long been a strategic weapon.

Demon Rats, the Media (as enemy of the We The People Constitutional Republic), LIEberals, Deep State members, and the globalist oligarchy LIE all the time, even when it is frivolous lying. NOTHING they issue for in their deceitful spittle is any truth. NEVER trust these dead soul bastaiges.

The lack of evidence just goes to show how far Trump will go in obstructing justice.

I heard it said by an otherwise intelligent person, that Trump is Putin’s puppet. They actually believe that.

They threw out religion because it required unquestioning belief, and adopted the religion of liberalism, which punishes unbelievers.

Had Trump been in Stalin’s pocket, that, would have been OK with the Bolshekrats.
