Making Russia Great Again

This in not tongue-in-cheek. Besides Trump, who is obviously pro-Russian, look at his appointees, several of whom have to be classified as very pro-Russian, especially Tillerson. One wonders what leverage Putin has over Trump in order to actively assist Trump in winning the election, and have Trump attack and dismiss the findings of our own intelligence agencies. Perhaps Trump is afraid they'll be finding much, much, more.

Russia is an enemy, pure and simple. Putin is a hard-line dictator, who is corrupt to the tune of $85B in assets he controls. Remember Paul Manafort, Trump's former campaign chairman? He was instrumental in assisting the former president of Ukraine improve his image, lobbying hard for him in the USA. Problem is, that he looted Ukraine before running-off to Russia to live in exile. Then Putin moves in to "protect" Ukraine. All good, right?

Russia is bad news all around, yet Trump obviously supports Putin, whom he admires, and Russian actions. Watch Trump accept the Crimean takeover and sanction further Russian terror as Putin tries to rebuild the USSR. My bet is that Trump owes Russian financiers big-time for bailing him out with loans when US banks wouldn't lend Trump money because his casinos were failing left and right.

One person who won't be helping make Russia great again is Mitt Romney, who refused to kiss Trump's ass and take back his comments about Trump during the campaign. So much for fence-mending with the mainstream GOP Donald...Mitt won't bow down to you and he lost the Secretary of State job as a result.

Bravo, Mitt. Trump is a treasonous POS.

"If" the effort to use the voting electors to block Trump from taking the Presidency works, the really good news about this that won't be talked about will be that this very action will undermine the election process in the first place which ultimately undermines the State itself.

Trump to me is irrelevant either way but on the grounds of harming the existing State in the minds of the larger public, I'm all for that so I hope their efforts to undermine the very system they want to control works to perfection!

Obama is simply a contrarian. With all the big legislation he got thru in his first administration he couldn't pass card check. Why does the union care about rewriting every traditional moral issue. We should work for one freedom, the freedom to choose a union without corporate pressure. This is why Trump got elected. Blacks, Whites, and Hispanics all agree on this, but our amoral leaders are trying to divide us for their own narrow agenda.

Wait, you're saying that Russia is our greatest geo-political threat?

It's certainly one of them. I guess you're OK with a Manchurian Candidate that wants to provoke the entire world. I'm not.

The evidence seems to be there for Russia to create a new USSR. It isn't helping that Trump is treating the presidency as a reality TV show.

Obama isn't our President in 30 days...Trump is. Russia is a threat, but Trump is a bigger one, because he's crazy.

my point exactly. Obama ignored the threat as he did ISIS and now you have a world in disarray. Hopefully we'll never elect a guy that wears mom jeans president again.

I understand that the shooter of the Russian Ambassador was a member of the Turkish Riot Police. Since earlier claims were trying to link the shooting to radical terrorist groups, can we call the Turkish Riot Police a radical terrorist group?

I was basing what I said on my Egyptian helper who was translating the Arabic into English. He said the terminology the guy was using tends to be used by ISIS. He could be totally wrong. I don't know.
