This is after the last two years of them telling us it’s not.
What are the Trumpbots reactions to the news that Trump was actually discussing handing over 11 US citizens, including Michael McFaul, the former US ambassador to Russia, to Putin?
Plus Bill Browder, who is no longer even a US citizen.
And all because Vlad is still mightily pissed off by the Magnitsky Act, which Obama signed, and which Trump has been doing everything in his power to undermine since taking office.
The Magnitsky Act being so named after Sergey Magnitsky, Browder’s lawyer, who was left to rot in a Russian prison cell before being beaten to death.
Putin wouldn’t want any of these 12 people dead, of course. No, he’s a nice man who wouldn’t have any truck with that sort of thing.
Why would Trump discuss all this, I wonder?
Any US President worth a fuck would have immediately told Putin to get lost in no uncertain terms.
“Gov. Romney, I’m glad that you recognize that al-Qaida is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what’s the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia, not al-Qaida. You said Russia … the 1980s, they’re now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War’s been over for 20 years," Obama said.
Howls of laughter from Democrats and eager beavers like yourself staying up to all hours.
You are wrong on every single issue you raised, but hardly a surprise given the whole Republican platform is based on distortions and lies.
The Republican theme seems to be lets to go back to the glorious 1950s and the cold war when minorities and women were kept in their place. Good luck with that strategy in 2012. It is truly sad what this once great political party has become, looking at the audience last night it has clearly become the party of old angry white people who want “their” country back.
Republican attack dogs like Sean Hannity launched a dispicable campaign against Obama because of the Church he attended. This time they cannot use religion as it will backfire, most Americans have no clue what Mormonism is and who can blame them. Republicans are doing everything they can to suppress the black vote, changing the voting laws and requiring forms of identification that exclude poor minorities. Republicans and the Tea Party that now control them want a white America run by white men. To succeed they will do everything necessary, as they did in Florida in 2000, to suppress the minority vote.
Funny how you are now the classic caricature of everything you wrote against in 2012!
Funny how you’re now agreeing with @Tim_Riggins about Romney in 2012 when you said the whole Republican campaign was based on distortions and lies!
And you wonder why you’re a laughing stock.
Poor Tim will be scandalised when he reads the above. I think he thought he could rely on you for moral support.
FYI I think Trump behaved like a clown at the summit. It has nothing to do with me thinking it’s funny how you just twist yourself to whatever like the Democratic Twitterati are going on.
I’m sure intelligent posters at the time and now can read the entire post for themselves and see what an excellent commentator the 2012 version of labane1917 was, as indeed the 2018 version is.
I am not a Republican, nor a Democrat, I am an Independent, a word you clearly have no understanding of. I voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012, but now realize 2012 was a mistake.
Intelligent people modify their opinions as facts change. My interest then and now is in the truth, another word you have no understanding of.
You can’t work out whether you think Russia is a danger to the US and Europe or whether the US and Europe should submit to every single thing Russia wants.
Romney was indeed correct about the threat of Russia. Obama actually realised the Russian threat and acted.
Trump is the exact opposite. He wants to ally with Russia on its own terms. He is doing Russia’s bidding for it, because he is clearly controlled by them.
And here you are trying to say that both Romney and Trump were/are correct, because they both have an ® after their name, even though they saying/doing the exact opposite things, all while shouting “but Obama”.
You have no idea how much of a clownshoe that makes you look like.
The gas thing is you actually came across as sane and knowledgeable in 2012.
You come across as the exact opposite in 2018, and you have done ever since you registered here, because your views here are the exact opposite of your views in 2012.
What happened, mate?
Did a “liberal” run your dog over?
Or did you just take the INTERNET too seriously and end up going mental?
