Biden is entirely right. If Trump is elected again, Putin will become the most powerful man in the world.

Note that fmr Pres Trump's comment about handing a NATO country over to Pres Putin comes only a few days after the Pres Putin interview in which Pres Putin said that Poland asked Hitler to invade it.

Is that timing a coincidence?

Fact Check: Putin Defends Hitler's Invasion of Poland in Carlson Interview
www.newsweek.com

... The controversial interview in Moscow, released on Thursday, sparked a wave of mockery as Putin lectured Carlson, talking through Russian history from the 9th century to the present day.

Some commentators alleged that while talking through the Soviet campaign in World War II, Putin claimed that Adolf Hitler had been "forced" to invade Poland in 1939.

The Claim

A post on X, formerly Twitter, by former Ukrainian Deputy Internal Affairs Minister Anton Gerashchenko, on February 9, 2024, viewed 755,000 times, said: "Putin said the Poles forced Hitler to attack them in 1939.

"Hitler just wanted to 'realize his plans' and Poland was 'uncooperative' and 'forced' Hitler to attack and start World War II, Putin said.

"So, 1939, late August.

"Hitler: Poland, we want to annex you, agree!

"Poland: We don't agree, we are a sovereign state and will remain so.

"Hitler: You force me to conquer you by force. I declare war against you. God knows, it's your fault!

"And Putin says: Hitler had no choice but to start with Poland. ...

"Trump said he would encourage Russia to do "whatever the hell they want" to any NATO member country that doesn't meet spending guidelines on defense."

Deplorable talk like this gets maga maroons hard.

That is what I cannot understand.

The MAGA folk seem to be so focused upon worshiping at the altar of Cult Trump that they (intentionally?) ignore the severe threat to freedom their actions seem to support.

Can someone please explain to me the reasoning why that observation seems to be true? Or false?


thx.

Trump is the guy who never meets spending guidelines on his debts or his taxes.

Perhaps Putin should invade him... but that would be wasting his best tool.

It's an alpha male thing. You wouldn't understand.

I kid... :)

Have you ever seen a WWE wrestling match. Live?

It's weird to you and me. It's not even real. But they somehow can suspend reason and convince themselves it is. And they eat it up.

Read Fantasyland by Kurt Anderson. He explains it very well.

From his website.

"In this sweeping, eloquent history of America, one of our sharpest observers, Kurt Andersen, demonstrates that what's happening in our country today"this strange, post-truth, "fake news" moment we're all living through"is not something entirely new, but rather the ultimate expression of our national character and path. America was founded by wishful dreamers, magical thinkers, and true believers, by impresarios and their audiences, by hucksters and their suckers. Believe-whatever-you-want fantasy is deeply embedded in our DNA."

lol...

I just heard a Dem in a GOP House Hearing respond to some crazed Climate talk by one of the -------.

He said, "I serve with some of the greatest minds of the 19th century."

I forget, how many wars did we get into or become a part of because of Trump? Which party accused Trump of collusion without any evidence and losing the case? How much love did Trump give to China, a staunch ally of Russia?

I'm not saying Trump is any better and I've said many times I don't want him in office. However, ignoring reality just because you have a frail ego doesn't make your case better, it actually destroys it.

I bet you don't count a cold civil war as a war, do you?

You don't want trump in office, you just argue every day that the only alternative shouldnt be in office. Another trump supporter who doesn't want to be held accountable for what trump does.

Wait, you mean when the subject of an investigation has the power to limit and squash the investigation, the conclusion is that he's innocent? Welp I'm convinced because I'm a naive moron!

BTW - why did trump choose a russian asset as his campaign manager, out of everyone in the country he could have picked?

"Biden Says Trump Is Bowing Down to Putin"

Trump has done everything to show his fealty but being filmed kissing Putin's wee wee.

Putin has something on Trump worse than tapes of Trump having sex with teenagers.

As I've pointed out before 1Lumper2, you are a lumper and an idiot. Why you would believe anything Putin says is beyond me, but since you do:

Putin says he didn't like the Tucker Carlson interview because it was too soft.

"I honestly thought he would be aggressive and ask tough questions. I wanted that, because I would have given tough answers back [...] to be frank, I didn't get much pleasure from this interview."

Translation: Putin thinks Tucker is a boring wimp.

Russian President Vladimir Putin

Most of us just write "Putin".

Takes an extraordinary amount of admiration to write "Russian President Vladimir Putin".

Of course he's going to say that. He wants Dementia don back in the white house to restart the pipeline of classified US intel flowing into Moscow.

Quoting Putin on who he would prefer as president is as good as getting a recipe from Jeffery Dalhmer.

This is just part of the Democrat's super effective strategy to make Lewzer the nominee.

It's interesting how supposed translations in directs differ depending on the source.

Talking to Russian journalist Pavel Aleksandrovich Zarubin on state-television Rossiya-1 on Wednesday, the Russian president said: "To be honest, I thought that he would behave aggressively and ask so-called sharp questions. I was not just prepared for this, I wanted it, because it would give me the opportunity to respond in the same way."

Nice of him to say "bowing". Hmmmmm Interesting... a few years back I distinctly remember him "bending over" for Putin at a press conference. There was something about him not understanding why Putin would interfere with the election.

wee wee all the way home pigs
