I’m pretty sure that #peepeetape is getting dropped the moment Fuckface is out of office. As soon as Trump is no longer useful to Putin he’s done. Are we to assume he couldn’t afford a decent printer back in 2007 after all his bankruptcies too? Looks like Don Jr. printed it with a potato or Eric as he’s better known.

Actually I think we should let them take over foreign soil like Crimea. I am more concerned with a country like Iran or China which are bigger threats than Russia. Russia is a dying state and Putin is popular there he has a 59% last check. So not much we can do if anything.

I do agree that Romney was correct in his assessment looking back and where we are now. It was definitely something the Obama administration should have paid more attention to.

I look back at it and I see the foreign policy hawks in congress and the DNC and RNC establishment who are screeching about Russia now. Turned a blind eye in 2012. It's the most ironic thing in american politics. Although I am not a fan of Foreign intervention of any kind. The Politicians screech about election interference and rightfully so but lets not forget the Middle East and Latin American policy of the cold war. Latin American Country: Hey US we just democratically elected this leader you cool with that? America: Nah we sending the CIA to overthrow your elected officials Edited August 20, 2020 by Gibsonfender2323 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-W.A.R- Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 There is a great chapter in "The Shock Doctrine" about Western intervention in the 90s after the fall of the Soviet Union. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, I get that the U.S. has a bad track record, particularly with its relations in the middle east. But the Putin fandom amongst some Americans is extremely misplaced. Authoritarianism should be rejected and fought. Efforts should be made to loosen America's ties to nations like Saudia Arabia, not to improve them with states like Russia.

As far as I remember he changed his signature, so that the 3 tallest spikes in his signature represent that, at the time, Republicans had taken the 3 branches of government. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Seems like anyone who speaks against Putin gets killed or a mysterious illness. It's his country and he won't give it up without taking out the competition. 22 hours ago, Gibsonfender2323 said: Saudi Arabia is a big one. Yeah, and why this country? Do we get our oil from them? You know some of the terrorists that took out the towers were from SA. I don't get it? They don't treat their people any better than other Arab nations. It has to be about money. It always is.
