This whole pile of BS with Barkydoodle sending our soldiers to the Polish border to irritate Russia...

But it was the O admin who (intentionally) strengthened Russia's military, with their "flexible" deals on missile defense and nukes, including the Iran nuke deal that Putin likes so much. This while they (the O admin) practically took apart our own military.

Donald Trump: 'Putin has eaten Obama's lunch, therefore our lunch, for a long period of time'

Mar 13, 2014
Eun Kyung Kim: TODAY SHOW (NBC)

Donald Trump slammed President Obama Thursday on TODAY for failing to take a stronger line against President Vladimir Putin in dealing with Ukraine, saying he feared Obama would now make up for lost time with imprudent moves to "show his manhood."

The real estate mogul and reality-TV star, who has criticized Putin for sending military troops into Crimea, said Obama must now take fierce steps to prevent the situation from escalating further.

"We should definitely do sanctions and we have to show some strengths. I mean, Putin has eaten Obama's lunch, therefore our lunch, for a long period of time," Trump said. ..."

Trump says NATO is obsolete but still ‘very important to me’

Reuters
January 16, 2017

LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said NATO was obsolete because it had not defended against terror attacks, but that the military alliance was still very important to him, The Times of London reported.

“I took such heat, when I said NATO was obsolete,” Trump told the newspaper in an interview. “It’s obsolete because it wasn’t taking care of terror. I took a lot of heat for two days. And then they started saying Trump is right.”

Trump added that many NATO members were not paying their fair share for U.S. protection.

“A lot of these countries aren’t paying what they’re supposed to be paying, which I think is very unfair to the United States,” Trump said. “With that being said, NATO is very important to me. There’s five countries that are paying what they’re supposed to. Five. It’s not much.”

Thanks for the Matt Lauer You-tube. I hadn’t seen that.

Of course I did see the one where Barky said to tell Vladimir I’ll have a lot more leeway after the re-election. I also have seen the news items from a black man named Obama at Patrice Lumumba University (who knows how many there were).

It’s all somewhat confusing as there are contradictory forces at work in these times. It was pretty clear that Hillary wanted a war with Russia or maybe just a convenient war somewhere to grease the way to complete control of everything and everyone because after all we’re at the mercy of the government when nukes are about to fly.

Right there at the end, when both Hillary and Obama were looking for someway (no matter how ridiculous) to stop Trump from actually taking over on the 20th, I think they were grasping at straws.

Why would Obama care if Russia attacked a NATO country. Only if we were “attacked” and couldn’t “change horses midstream in a war”...

I was living in fear that either Hillary or Obama would actually find a way for us to incite Russia to kill some of our troops (totally disposable as far as they would care).

There are so many incongruities in today’s world, but I do remember how WWII started. The only thing I could figure why the little xxxt would endanger our troops is for an incident he or she could use to derail Trump.

I also wonder why Vladimir is glued to Iran. I know there’s a possibility of a prosperous oil deal (pipeline?). But there again how can he forget Beslan?

I’m pretty glad I don’t have to know the 4 dimensional chess needed to keep the country safe. I think maybe Trump can do it.
