I agree. At least with Putin, you get the feeling that the “international community” can go pound sand because he is looking out Russian interests— which should be his job! Russias interests are not necessarily congruent with America’s. After watching the Obama apology tours, several European nations commit suicide, and an increasingly demanding global governance movement, taking care of number one seems to be long overdue. I think that is what many are hoping for with Trump.
What you gonna do Vlad-tell them ‘cut it out!’ /S it is sad when I have more respect for a Russian dictator than I do for the current POTUS.
