Anyway, they were too dumb to read the early indications that that would not be the case. Indications such as his choice for VP and UN Ambassador, both of whom, as well as other top picks, including Jeff Sessions, are/were very staunch, outspoken critics of KGB Putin. No way would Trump have selected these fine folks to fill these critic spots if he did not agree 100% with them. L
Pence, in his excellent VP debate, laid out loud and clear what he thought of Putin and the increasingly aggressive, expansionist course he is taking Russia. That should have sent a powerful signal to these misguided losers, but they are too screwed up in the head to think rationally.
critic = critical
