“Never-Trumper” Vindman tells Atlantic editor: Trump is Putin’s “Useful Idiot”
Byberry ^ | 9-15-2020 | Frank Bojazi

Alexander Vindman was a key witness during impeachment trial of President Donald Trump. Vindman has more recently become a big name in the anti-Trump movement. Vindman gave an interview with The Atlantic editor in Chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, in which Vindman was very critical of President Trump, particularly when it came to Goldberg’s questions about Russian intelligence.

Keep in mind, this is likely Vindman’s first big interview in quite a while. Also, something to keep in mind, is that Goldberg recently was criticized about his story that mentioned anonymous sources being highly critical of Trump, saying that he called military who lost their lives both “suckers” and “losers.” Goldberg was criticized for using anonymous sources and his foes on social media accused him of making the story up – but Goldberg claimed he stood by his reporting.

This guy is like the little baby in the highchair that keeps licking the lemon and making everyone laugh. Keeps doing it for the reaction.

If Russia was still communist the American Left still adore them and would be doing their bidding just like they actively do the ChiCom’s.

Though many, like Biden, would still want their 30 pieces of silver first.

Others like Bernie would do it for free.

That makes Biden better than Bernie ... which is about the same sort of defense of his character as opining that the shallower bits of a cesspool are preferable to the deeper.

When they searched for “Russian collusion” they never looked where it actually was. Fusion GPS was on a Russian payroll. So was Podesta. So was Christopher Steele. And so, famously, if you paid attention, were both Clintons.

Then, of course, half of Washington is on the Saudi payroll, and the Chinese payroll. And Qatar, and Ukraine.

You’re doing good if you are on the payroll of anyone of them, but the trifecta for the top tier of politicians is if you are on the payroll of all of the above.

Obama as a Dum Dum caption:

Putin thinking “My dear black friends overthrowing America taught me a word that applies to Obama:
Sucka!”

History will remember President Trump and his accomplishments leading this country and as a world leader. Today’s peace agreements signed between Israel, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates is a great example.

As for Vindman, what have you accomplished for the good of our country and world? In three years some may remember he was somehow involved in the sham impeachment. In five years he will likely be forgotten. Histori

Trump actually owns Putin and Russia. The US Oil and Gas output as a result of Trumps policies have nearly destroyed Russia’s energy dominance. Vindman and all the Dems don’t have a clue.

Trump has unleashed a global energy monster and Russia is sucking wind because of it.....

Our dishonest media can’t afford to let those facts get to the voting public prior to the election. Vindman is a socialist wannabe leader.....he’s destroyed himself.

They invented this idea and made themselves believe it. Some of these idiots actually believe that Trump is Putin’s puppet.

I do believe that Russia would rather have Trump as President than any of the Deep State actors, although not for the reasons the left is trying to invent. Putin, like Trump, is not looking to a New World Order, but rather wants to keep each country’s sovereignty. I do not see any evidence of Russia trying to interfere with this election, nor has any been shown from 2016.

Isn’t there some level of UCMJ control that can be exercised against recent commissioned officer retirees behaving this way?

Fat, insubordinate traitorous prick. If he’s still military I think his CIC will have words.
