Summary
Putin’s actions after Trump’s election, including a delayed congratulations and a denial of a phone call, suggest a lack of respect for Trump’s personal relationship with him.
Russia’s intelligence chief’s statement that Trump owes them favors for their support in his election, along with hints that he is expected to “pay back” certain obligations, amounts to a bold threat of blackmail.
Trump’s foreign policy, which favors a realignment with Russia, may be challenged by Putin’s actions and the revelation of Russian interference in the election.
So, we think Russia and Putin are telling the truth NOW?
When you’re destabilizing and spreading misinformation, you just want people at each other’s throats, so they aren’t at yours.
It’s idiotic to follow Russia or Putin News. There’s nothing there but outage fodder… for both sides.
Eh, seeing as how Putin assisting le trump has been the elephant in the room since 2015 I don’t think I’m going to turn my brain off yet.
I just want to see the kompromat lmao
I mean how bad can it be, some hooker shitting in his mouth? That’s not good enough for all this.
Don’t look at what they said. Look at what they did, like showing nudes of Melania on state TV.
He’s proud of that. That’s not shaming him.
Show nudes of other world leader’s wives/husbands. Have a nude-off!

There’s other things, like not giving a phone call congratulations. Putin quite obviously thinks Trump is a clod to be controlled.
And Trump certainly is! I’m not saying he’s not. I’m saying A) Russian statements are best ignored, and B) Trump is shallow, and the fact that his trophy wife is displayed publicly naked won’t trouble him at all.
There’s a trick you can do with what political leaders say. You don’t have to take them at their word, but they are saying things for a strategically chosen reason. You can work from that to take a good guess at their actions.
Oh they were shaming him all right. How he personally thinks about it is quite irrelevant, he still has enough wherewithal to understand how it’s meant and what impact it has on other people.
Nope. He will be proud. I guarantee it.
I won’t argue against him being proud. But he’s also going to be pissed.
Russian propaganda never tells the truth. It’s always a flower basket of bullshit that idiots of different flavors can jump on to. Perfect bluff, no one knows what they are planning.
Or they are drunk uncles with zero brain cells. That’s also a possibility.
