Putin warns Americans: You're being distracted!
He makes great points.
Many US observers of China correctly point to their bellicose position in the South and East China Seas as reflective of problems internal to China, that the reef issues there serve as distractions to their own citizens.
And so it is with the US, too, vis-a-vis Russia.
“Scaaaaaaary Russian hackers..!!!”
It’s sad I can trust a Russian KGB guy more than the politicians of my own country.
But that is where I am.
Let me put out my tinfoil scenario:
1) Trump wins
2) Obama claims election “manipulated by the Russians”
3) Hillary says, “Of course it was - they stole my emails!” (off Hillary’s illegal server)
4) Obama starts World War IV with the Russians, starting in Syria
5) Obama, of course, must stay in office, since “the Russians hacked the election”
Silly? Sure -— But Obama and Hillary have been blaring about this “hack” for some time now. And seem to be provoking Russia.
Good gosh.
OK /tinfoil off
Granted that was some serious tinfoil. But I’ll be honest, Obama and Hillary are really making me nervous with all their talk against Russia. Since it’s obvious they want to wreck the U.S.A. and are actively doing so.
Very interesting.
Them Rooskies done it. I seen ‘em.
Bump!
He comes at his points through logic. Of course being a former KGB guy and you can’t believe anything he says. But at least his public statements make sense. They make more sense than anything Hillary Clinton is saying. It is quite a contrast listening to Putin vs listening to Hillary and the junior varsity league people we have in the WH.
Putin is a KGB thug but he also loves his country.
This is far more than I can say about the POS Obama and all the scum in his regime, including the evil corrupt Pig In A Pant Suit.
What’s sad is that Putin can be trusted more than our current rats in charge of America.
The quality of leadership in our country is simply embarrassing in comparison to someone like Putin. When he deals with U.S. political leaders he must feel like an adult in a room full of kindergarten children.
I know!
I saw thems aliens from Roswell land right on top Hillary’s roof, vacuum up them emails and fly right to Putin’s house.
And they hads themselves a “Trump” bumper sticker right there on their spaceship!
[but he also loves his country.]
Hey, I’m sure Obama loves Kenya and/or Indonesia.
I agree. They’re trying to convince the people that Hillary is going to win with bogus polls. But if enough people say “Screw you! We don’t believe it was legit!”, their plan B is to say “Trump was right. The election was rigged but by the Russians in Trump’s favor. Therefore, it is null and void until we can hold a true election.”
All this rigged talk may play right into their plans.
And I don’t believe a damned word about our so called 17 intelligence agencies that “believe” the Russians hacked all the emails and gave them to WikiLeaks. Did anyone know we even have 17 intelligence agencies?
He’s speaking basic common sense from his relatively objective POV. Campaign blather should be taken with a grain of salt and either candidate could go in a completely different direction once in office.
Putin is clearly not thrilled with Hillary and her sycophants using Russia as their red herring existential enemy. He gave a very gentle warning that it could go too far and do real damage but for the most part he’s not worried and can’t take any of it seriously at this time.
It’s politics and Putin is clearly very well versed in politics.
I will have to admit, he makes more sense and bases his remarks on reality, something that Hillary is not able to do. Hillary is comfortable only in answering question with boilerplate — words that sound high and mighty and mean absolutely nothing.
The interetation was pretty elegant.
At best he was not complimentary to Hillary, but willing to suggest that such rhetoric as hers could recede if she gains the presidency. He seems used to this as an American election routine. (Recall Romney.)
On Trump, he ventured only as far as Trump ventured, on international cooperation, against ISIS.
interpretation.
Sorry. On cell keyboard.
Interesting that he references at the end, the remark that Hussein made during his second election campaign to tell Putin he would have more flexibility after the election.
It wouldn’t surprise me to hear that Putin gave the Little Kenyan Boy an atomic wedgie when Bathhouse started to lecture him on gays in Russia.
