Trump says Putin has gone ‘absolutely crazy,’ warns of downfall of Russia

Let’s try this, South Vietnam was being invaded, do you know which country was invading them during the Vietnam War and conquered them in 1975?

So you're telling us that it's our government's job to lie (Gulf of Tonkin) to counter one invasion with our own.

Same song -- different verse that we've used in invasion after invasion since then that always end up the same - a loss and a disaster for the USA.

It's the same old, tired story that has led us to a bloated military machine and budget, that's contributed significantly to our $37 trillion deficit.

So we spend our dollars on launching never-ending wars, leading to massive debts and over a trillion dollars in annual interest, while other countries like China, Russia, and so many others focus on investing in their own infrastructure and people, and not on never-ending war machines.

Smart. Real smart, cowboy.

You're so smart. Maybe you can explain how we can continue down this path without going broke.

Why won’t you simply name the country?

.....do you know which country was invading them during the Vietnam War and conquered them in 1975?

Mr. ansell2/aka Cowboy,

Here's what I know about Vietnam in 1975. The US running/escaping/surrendering from the country we invaded in 1965 based on a lie that the "commies were going to get us" triggered by the Gulf of Tonkin lie.

I was serving my country when that invasion started in 1965, but thank the good Lord it was not in Vietnam like so many of my brave friends who died for a lie!

You know about the lie like WMDs in Iraq or going to war with the Taliban in Afghanistan, only to be defeated/abandoned/escape, and surrender to the Taliban 20 years and trillions of dollars later.

Them lies and defeats.

You might be the craziest poster here, and you sure don’t know anything about the Vietnam war, or which country invaded and conquered South Vietnam and which countries were the allies of South Vietnam.

....you sure don’t know anything about the Vietnam...

Unlike you, I know what I see, cowboy!

I saw this with my own two eyes on the news in 1975? Where were you?

What do you think is happening in that photo?

So far you have described it as “The US running/escaping/surrendering from the country we invaded in 1965”.

What do you think is happening in that photo?

Just as I wrote: “The US running/escaping/surrendering from the country we invaded in 1965” and evacuees trying to salvage in 1975 what was left of their lives after we were defeated in the US invasion.

It is a symbol of our disastrous defeat in a war we should never have been involved in, that cost us 60,000 young American lives and who knows how many that came back with missing body parts and screwed up minds who bought into the lies for the invasion.

Look at that image and tell me you think it was worth even one American life!

“””after we were defeated in the US invasion.”””

What country did we invade and who were our allies in that invasion, and who was fighting off our invasion?

I love Russia. I love the Russian people. My wife and two sons are 1/2 Russian, and we live in Russia.

What a fascinating, quickly populating thread. If only certain fans of M&Ms would recall his 'deposition' from a few months ago.

Over.

He's probably forgotten that.

It's over.
