Donald Trump claims Putin annexed Crimea because he didnt respect Barack Obama
They expelled Russia and a reporter asked me, Do you think you would be better off with Russia and I said absolutely, Trump said. We spend probably 25 percent of our time talking about Russia. I said to myself, Wouldnt it be better if they were here?'
Trump then went on to say that he would be able to get Putin to listen to him simply by asking the Russian president to do him a favor and stop invading other countries.
Im not for Russia, Im for the United States, but as an example example, if Vladimir Putin were sitting next to me today instead of one of the others and we were having dinner the other night in Canada I could say, Would you do me a favor? Would you get out of Syria? Would you do me a favor, would you get out of Ukraine?' Trump said.
It is unclear why Trump has not asked the Russian leader to get out of Syria or get out of Crimea. Indeed, Trump has also not asked Putin to stop trying to infiltrate the 2018 midterm election.

another president in this manner.

It's the code of the road, and Trump wiped his fat backside with it coming in the door.

May I take allowances with our neighbor to the north and speak, fuck both of you, for them.

(3,479 posts)9. Satitizing Trump is like making a film that pokes fun of
the Naked Gun series. The subject is already so absurd and goofy, it's almost an impossible task.
Even the Onion has its work cut out for it with this circus clown.
