Should be headline top news everywhere.

One would think. Such a crazy, mixed-up world we live in now-a-days, where people swallow elephants and choke on gnats.

Imagine if Kennedy had told Russia to get their troops out of Cuba - wait, he did, which led to worldwide consternation.

You do know, the Monroe doctrine also said we would stay out of European areas too?

the United States should pull troops from Syria before telling Moscow to withdraw from Venezuela.

Deal!

The day after we pull the last of our troops out of Syria the Israeli Air Force will carpet bomb the iranians in Syria.

If Puti is a good boy Bibi might give him a heads up.

“If that’s Putin’s idea of collusion, he’s not very good at it.”

Exactly.

The only thing that Trump and Putin agree on is nationalism. The left is completely overrun by globalists, and so they attempt to smear all nationalists as racists with manufactured labels like “white nationalism.”

The difference is that Putin is more like the Dems when comes to winning elections. He will cheat and murder. So will the Dems as evidenced by Seth Ridge and the endless attempts by the left to stop illegal invaders from voting and others from voting twice or voting while dead.

As someone else around here pointed out, we need a Mexico collusion investigation.

If Russia had interfered in the election it would have been to help Hillary in order to make America weaker. Or it might have been part of the payoff for selling America’s uranium to Russia.

OK. Both Russia and America should pull all troops out of Syria. So should Iran. But neither Russia nor Iran is going to do that, so they shouldn’t tell the US to pull all troops out of Syria.

In contrast, Russia is the only one deploying troops inside Venezuela. So Russia should pull their forces out of Venezuela, and the US will reciprocate by not putting forces into Venezuela. Done and done.

Yep, the MSM would style it as Trump working with Putin to get Russia’s troops out of Venezuela.

Actually Trump unfroze Citgo accounts which allows their creditors to sue them and take their assets in the USA. Citgo is 49% owned by Russia. More “collusion”!

Like I said on another thread - Trump would have to be the worst "Russian asset", ever.

Might just happen that way; the Lord in His Word doesn’t show the U.S. or Saudi Arabia doing anything but lipservice and goofy querying toward the advance of thousands upon thousands of the combined Russian, Turkish, Iranian, Libyan, Ethiopian / Sudanese forces toward Israel.

When the time is right, God will make sure that most if not all of U.S. forces are not present in the area.

I agree that the Russians should not be in Venezuela.

The Monroe doctrine also says that we won’t meddle in European countries. Ukraine?
