GOP candidates slam Trump over Putin praise (Trump really scaring me-OK with killing journalists?)
Fox News ^ | Dec. 18, 2015 | Barnini Chakraborty

Posted on 12/18/2015 3:44:24 PM PST by mtrott

What started as a seemingly mild admiration between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin took an uncomfortable turn Friday when the GOP White House hopeful seemed to defend the Russian president’s strong-arm tactics – and dismiss his alleged killing of journalists and others who cross him.

Putin works for Russia

Trump is saying he will work for America.

0bama and the rinos work for the Satanic elites against Americans.

Let’s get over the cognitive dissonance. The federal government has a lot of skeletons in the closet. Take the Clinton administration for starters. The U.S. lost its moral high ground a long time ago.

“This guy’s just not well versed in what Putin is all about and so there’s this sort of reflexive admiration for a leader but he hasn’t really thought about the implications of that and I think you see a lot of that in Donald Trump interviews,’ ...

I’ll bet Trump knows a lot more about Putin than she does.

Trump's response was, "we kill a lot of people too"

Perhaps he's referring to events like the Doctors Without Borders hospital we apparently bombed with absolutely no one taking responsibility for?

911 Operator, how may I help you?

Well, I'm shocked. I just heard an interview and I don't know if I'll make it. I'm shocked I tell you.
Citizen FReepMeNot

Well sir, was it MSNBC?
911 operator

Well, yes..., yes it was. How did you know?
Citizen FReepMeNot

Well, sir, we get about 35 of these calls a day. They ask a lot of gotcha questions and sometimes guests are taken off guard. We notice things level out in a day or so.
911 operator

But, I'm scared. It was terrible.
Citizen FReepMeNot

I know sir, but please try to calm down. Take deep breaths. We find that warm baths help. You may want to take a nap.
911 operator

I'm sorry, I need to go now. We have important calls too...

“fairy boy cares more about making this country weak, getting rid of it’s history, and making white Christians a minority.,”

It’s way worse than that. He all in for making this country part of the caliphate. I cringe when I hear all this BS about his “ineptitude.” He’s not inept, he’s very focused on the conversion of this country to a Sharia Law place.

Killing journalists?

Is that wrong? Should I not have done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon... you know, cause I tell you, people do that all the time.

TRUMP: Vladimir Putin's praise is 'a great honor'


Business Insider ^ | December 17, 2015 | By Maxwell Tani

Republican US presidential front-runner Donald Trump is apparently "honored" that Russian President Vladimir Putin considers the real-estate magnate a "flamboyant" and "very talented" man.

"It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond," Trump said in a statement, according to Politico.

He continued: "I have always felt that Russia and the United States should be able to work well with each other towards defeating terrorism and restoring world peace, not to mention trade and all of the other benefits derived from mutual respect."

As bad as Putin is, Obama and his supporters are a greater danger to freedom and Christian values — our soft-on-Islam President is spreading homosexuality, radical feminism, socialism, and environmental extremism all over the world.

"RT [Russia Today] has been called a propaganda outlet for the Russian government[10][11][12] and its foreign policy[10][11][13][14] by former Russian officials[15] and by news reporters,[16] including former RT reporters.[17][18][19]

It has also been accused of spreading disinformation.[20][21][22]

The United Kingdom media regulator Ofcom has threatened RT with sanctions because of repeated violations of its rules on impartiality.[23]

The network states that it offers a 'Russian perspective' on global events.[24]"

I'm sure you meant Cruzers. Cruzers say Ted can do nothing wrong. They say when he's down 20, he's really "up" or "surging." They say that when IA polls come out showing him down 3,4, 5 well, he'll "make it up on the ground game." These were virtually the same lines we heard about ol Mittens.

Trump is the real deal, a guy who expresses what right now a majority of people---not just Republicans---think. DOES Putin "kill journalists?" New one on me. I never heard that. I know he imprisoned "Pussy Riot." Who did Putin kill?

Yep, and if you listen to the audio, you get even more of the sense that the fact that Putin has killed journalists was of no concern whatsoever to Trump.

The current (June, 2015) US Law of War lists journalists as bellicose. They may be shot on sight.

...

They’ve certainly been active in destroying America.

What REALLY scares people is that in fact a large number of Americans have no use at all for "journalists" any more and see them as the enemy. That's the real takeaway that all of the media, of course, is missing.

The other thing is that in a three day period, both the Foreign Minister of Mexico and the President of Russia are talking about dealing with Trump . . . not Obama, not Cruz, not Hillary. So they are already seeing something our own GOPe media wants to ignore.

Trump folks are like Obama folks. It’s a cult thing. Nothing they do, don’t do or say matters one lick. They are on the train no matter what.

I think many Trump supporters HATE the Republican Establishment more than they LOVE Donald Trump and RIGHTFULLY so, and they LOVE what Donald Trump is doing to them (the GOPe) so I must disagree with you.

The It's an anti-establishment movement and NOT a cult.

He didn’t really say that he said you didn’t ask me that question, you asked a different question. Then when asked if he condemns it, he said “Yes”.

Bull and baloney! Seems it never makes the news nor is she ever questioned although Hillery has a string of dead people from Washington to Arkansas behind every step she and Bill have made.

Scarborough is a creep. You noted yourself he TWICE challenged Trump over Putin. I’d guess Trump was referring to Hillery, but you believe what you want to.
