When you take into account that Putin said these things would make him consider war, it's not so much bull**** as a legitimate threat.

Plus, nobody ever said that Trump wasn't going to lead us into war.

Speaking of hyperbole.....

As I noted before, Russia's military is pretty gutted since the breakup of the Soviet Union. They simply do not have the money to support it. They are planning on eliminating a half a million troops this year. ****, Israel could kick Russia's ass in a war, never mind the US with its allies.

Clinton's chest puffing and talk of negotiation over safe zones in Syria is what's called "diplomacy". Look it up.

Trump wanting to circle jerk with Putin is the absolute worst way to go. Putin's playing him like a banjo. Tillerson as Secretary of State? Really? That sure played right into Putin's hands.

Tell me this doesn't stink:

Rex is divesting himself of any connections to Exxon (though a nice payday is coming out of that, which I don't see anyone having a problem with unless they're just envious of his stock options), so whatever financial benefit the sanctions might have meant for him speculatively are pretty much a non-issue.

If they haven't made him consider war in the past. He would do it now just because a woman is in charge? gtfo.

Also, that's what everyone was so worried about. Was Clinton leading us into war, whenever anyone said Trump would likely have the possibility to do the same. It was redirected back to Clinton and how nervous people were about a war with Russia that wasn't going to happen.

People were speaking in such certain terms like they knew the future.

Lol guys why don't you just tell me what my point is and I'll edit it into my posts so you can argue against them and pat yourselves on the back for being right.

Tl;dr straw man as **** up in here.

Are you really so stupid/naive as to not see the conflicts of interest? This is Cheney/Haliburton all over again.

You are so Republican it's silly.

People are saying that Trump has already done more than Obama has.

This upsets me.

I'm not Republican: I just see it as a non-issue. How is it a conflict of interest? Unlike you, I can't predict the future nor am I a mind reader. I also don't hate rich people. So there you go?

1. You come across as a republican so maybe re-think things.

2. Non issue? Sounds like something a republican would say.

3. How is it conflict of interest? Are you ****ing serious?

4. I don't predict. I anticipate.

5. I don't hate legitimate rich people. I hate those that get rich by gaming the system. Watch the movie Margin Call sometime.

This is not fiction.
