  1. Or maybe because it’s obvious as hell?
    Russia helps Iran, the U.S. helps Ukraine. This is just how geopolitics works.

    Because Trump’s only job is to lick Putin and Netanyahu’s shoes. That’s why he demands Ukraine’s surrender and started war with Iran.

    no, its because this is a giant grift with the big players making a FORTUNE. US, Israel and Russia will come out of this on top while we all pay for it. Who is getting the extra money you will be paying for gas and food and everything else? Who is making the money off the interest of the loans you need to take to survive? Follow the money!

  4. I mean I know Russia is helping Iran. What are we supposed to do about that? That’s like someone saying the US helps Israel. Yea? And?

  5. my dude.. its obvious they are helping iran.. KINDA LIKE THE US AND EUROPE IS HELPING UKRAINE

    jesus.. its not rocket science

  6. Everyone misunderstands Trump and Putin’s relationship. Putin doesn’t need leverage or dirt on Trump. All he needs to do is be the contrarian to the norm and he gets the golden ticket to shove his fist up Trump and puppet him.

    The whole world saying “Starving your own citizens for make many booms bad”? Putin is right there to be like “Hey man, you go as many booms as you need to big man, it’s what real big boys do”.

    Europe screaming at Trump that he is committing war crimes and he’s unconscionable? Putin is all like “Nah man, they just jealous cuz they ain’us. Screw them kids, bombs away, pew those bridges, pow those plants”.

    Canada is all up in arms about trade deals? “Heh bro who needs some bitchy neighbour, just invade them. Or starve them. Or both. Totally cool with me man. Hell, I’ll even hold you while you scream that tweet out”.

    All Putin has to do is play to Trumps derangements because he is totally fine with basically everything Trump does regardless of how morally disgusting it is.

    My fellow Americans wake up to the dangers to our county we agree more than we disagree.

  8. there’s several russian assets in government right now, it’s not like it’s not an open secret at this point given the whole vance in oroban territory and all, and all the stuff about was it gabbard who had russian ties or an investigation shut down?

  9. Makes me wonder what Trump’s reaction would be if Putin invaded Northern Alaska now.

    I trust a fart after eating Taco Bell in a sketchy neighbourhood more then I do with Putin

  11. Trump has helped Russia several times. This is providing aid and comfort to America’s arch enemy.

    Trump is a traitor to America.

  12. *it* doesn’t trust Putin. Donald trust Piston, because Donald is a fucking moron.

    Wouldn’t be the first time. Remember when Trump trusted Putin over the US FBI about proven Russian election interference?

    >President Putin says it’s not Russia. I don’t see any reason why it would be

    Breaking News!  Putin stabs Trump in the Back, Trump blames Ukraine after Putin swears it was a setup! 

  15. Trump takes orders from Putin. The rest of us sure don’t trust either of them.

    Previously on Reddit:Trump announces 50% tariffs on Nations supplying Iran with weapons

    HA HA HA HA HA HA

    Unless those weapons come from Russia in which case Putin gets a pass…Again

  17. Or more appropriately, US ignores evidence because President of US is owned by Putin.
