PUTIN inserting DONALD TRUMP as an instrument to inflict ‘damage’ on OBAMA is going to get old with PRESIDENT TRUMP. He will not tolerate it.
I don’t think Donald is taking it that way. The season for this is limited at most; 20 more days.
I am certainly not seeing it that way.
The Russians, like DT and most Americans, see the problem as militant islam. I think they view Obama as muslim himself, and quite rightly, as an impediment rather than an ally.
While I personally don’t believe for a second the the Russians hacked our election, I think they know that they didn’t. I think they, again rightly, feel that Obama is accusing them of this in order to poison the relationship between Putin’s Russia and Trump’s America.
Russia and the US are natural allies against militant islam. They have had their own terrorist issues. Europe has gone all wobbly on this, and may well fall to the muslim hordes now invading. If/when that happens the US and Russia together may be forced into an alliance to save our collective civilizations.
We need to work together to solve this common threat and then we can get back to competing .
Both Trump and Putin are smart enough to see this.
