He's not "screwing anything up". He's doing these things deliberately. He has spent his whole entire life around groups and individuals dedicated to the destruction of America and advancement of Russia and communism. Russia is far from through with communism, despite all the BS you read and hear in the media.
Yeah, but the ruskies don’t like competition. They need an opposite to keep the “revolution” going.
How much of the USA will Obama try to give away when he goes to Ghana?
