OPINION - Donald Trump can’t come back from his grotesque praise for ‘genius’ tyrant Vladimir Putin
evening std ^ | 3/16/22 | Sarah Baxter

Posted on 03/16/2022 5:39:06 AM PDT by central_va

Come on, Republicans, it is time to dump Trump. You know it. Even members of his Make America Great Again fan club know it. Somebody has to summon up the courage to tell the former US president that he is no longer the man of the hour — and that he must give up his vengeful drive to regain power.

Bars?

Tell that to Nelson Mandela… etc.

Or someone who wrote letters from the Birmingham jail.

Jail does not work to defeat your enemies.

Well, except Epstein … Epstein did not kill himself.

We’ll see what the end game is with Ukraine. If Putin does get what he wants (safety for Ukrainian Russians and Ukrainian neutrality), he will go down as a genius, as no one was interested in discussing those subjects with him prior to the attack.

Trumps right. Also, Putin didn’t behave badly during the Trump Admin. He did though during Obozo.

Even Bill Maher is asking, “If Trump and Putin were so close, then why didn’t Putin attack Ukraine when Trump was president?”

Right or wrong, better or worse, I think that Putin expected Trump to be reelected in 2020. Europe and NATO have proven to be more united and more opposed to the invasion than Putin anticipated. Given Trump's opposition to NATO, his acrimonious relationship with most European leaders, his poor relationship with the Ukraine, and his good relationship with Putin himself I think Putin thought his chances of success would be better under a second Trump administration. Again, it may well be a major miscalculation on Putin's part but I believe that was behind his decision.

Sarah is an ignorant azzhole. Trump said that as a warning not to take Putin lightly. The elitists ignored him and look where we are now.

He called Putin a “genius” only because he thought Putin was using troop deployment at the border as a negotiating tactic and nothing more. Many of us thought the same too. It’s a page out of the Art of The Deal. The actual invasion and shelling of cities that followed was completely unexpected.

And Joe said he was a great man, too.

This is a BS lie you are repeating. Joe likened Putin to Peter the Great, that's all. No big deal.

Putin is not our enemy.

When two of my kids challenged me before I voted in 2016, I told them that improved relations with Russia and avoiding war were my top priorities, because deteriorating relations with Russia and war were the two greatest threats to MAGA.

I believed that then, and I believe that now.

Putin is an enemy of the global empire that controls DC, and so am I. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

The story about the little boy that cried wolf comes to mind.

The media and the left (I am repeating myself) has from day one demonized Trump. They twisted everything he said and done and in fact impeached him (twice) based on lies and fabricated evidence.

So why should anyone (that supports) Trump be swayed by any argument made by the media? Rhetorical question, they shouldn’t and will not change their support of Trump.

i tried to contact sarah baxter to ask her exactly what trump said about putin... without her subjectivity getting in the way, but they do not put a contact for authors of articles any more... i guess too much bad press.

i am called a cultist for my appreciation of trump, but if trump strays from freedom, i will dump trump, the ones calling me a cultist will never dump their love of government. who is the cultist now, eh?

It’s called damning with faint praise. Trump knows how to manipulate also. Flattery is also a possibility. They say it will get you anywhere.

Putin was going into the Ukraine no matter who was in the Oval Office.

"...Even members of his Make America Great Again fan club know it..."

Yeah. She is hobnobbing with MAGA Fan Club membersall over the place at her Manhattan parties rubbing elbows with them, so she knows exactly what they are thinking.

Perhaps someone should tell her that Peggy Noonan doesn't count...
