    Russian state media celebrates Trump's comments
    Situation Room
    President Donald Trump's comments that he would like to see Russia join the G8 are being lauded on state TV in Russia. CNN's Frederik Pleitgen reports.

    Video here: https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/20...tsr-vpx.cnn/video/playlists/around-the-world/

    As usual, Trump praises Putin and slams Obama, this time directly over the issue of Putin invading and annexing Crimea and the response to this, which was, with majority support from European members, to kick Russia from the G8, making it the G7.

    To Trump, the Danish PM is "nasty," but Putin is A-OK. :roll:

    As a national leader, Putin is probably the best in the world. Trump is very much the opposite.

    Easy to get popular when your opponents die of poison.

    The Muslim Brotherhood was always celebrating Obama comments.

    The Taliban, ISIS and jihadist were always celebrating Obama's PC rules of engagements that favored them and caused American troops to bleed and die in the name of political correctness.

    American troops are still bleeding and dying. Why don't you re-enlist?

    Our military doesn't train to kill adherents to any political ideology in particular.

    The one thing Obama loved about the Muslim Brotherhood, Taliban, ISIS, and especially Al Nusra/Al Sham was their persecution of Christians. It's still going on by Al Nusra/Al Sham, and we still support them.

    WWI was our war against an absolute monarch. WWII was our war against a fascist dictator, and the Cold War was against communism. All fell under the banner that democracies do not start wars.

    Well we proved them wrong now didn't we? Then again are we a democracy? I don't think so.

    Since you're the one that keeps pushing for a war with Russia, why don't you enlist?

    Not any more.

    The U.S. military hasn't been in the war business for a few decades now.
    The U.S. military today is in the business of being used for PC social engineering experimentations.



    Probably the biggest factor why so many in the Officers Corps and SNCO Corps have been leaving the military by the tens of thousands in the past ten years.

    It's no longer the military they remember.

    Barack Obama's only indoctrination in Christianity was at the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's "Trinity United Church of Racism" in Chicago.

    But the Russians poisoned in London weren't opponents? They're tax evaders, that's why they're running scared now and going back to Moscow.

    I don't see the problem with bringing Russia into the G8, as opposed to China they follow patent and other world trade regulations

    .

    Correction. The Russians poisoned were spies, probably double agents but not tax evaders. The tax evaders are running scared though. They don't feel safe in London after what happened to the Skripals, so they're negotiating a return to Moscow - with the money they stole of course. That is if the London banks will cough it up. I doubt it.

    Easy to become popular after the ravages of Project Hammer and Boris Yeltsin.

    If DJT could do for the US what Putin did for Russia, I would support him. Ain't gonna happen.

    He's done in a good job with Ukraine and the Crimea. He's got the Baltic states and Norway nervous too.
    Threatening to swamp the eastern seaboard of the USA with a nuclear tsunami shows his compassion and
    wisdom too.

    No you provided a single opinion that, frankly, makes no sense. Thanks for the Russian propaganda, though.
