surely you prefer to discuss the more convenient propaganda, instead of inconvenient one ... like that evil Putin who does not want to cooperate - here is what cooperation that US means, example = http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/02/07/the-strategic-suicide-of-aligning-with-russia-in-syria/ =
"In the summer and early fall of 2016, during the negotiations over a potential “Joint Implementation Center” to conduct coordinated targeting against Nusra and the Islamic State, Obama insisted that Moscow enforce a nationwide ceasefire (including in besieged Aleppo) and ensure unfettered humanitarian access across Syria for the United Nations as preconditions. Obama also required that, if and when the Joint Implementation Center was established, Russia commit to following the laws of war, avoid targeting the moderate opposition, ground Assad’s air force over most of the country, provide the United States a veto over Russian counterterrorism targets, and press the Assad regime back into negotiations on a political transition. Ultimately, the Russians proved unable or unwilling to convince Assad (and Iran) to meet these conditions, and the proposal collapsed."
how dare Putin refuse to give US veto over Russia while not being offered the veto over US strikes... he is really not a reliable partner, is he ... so what exactly Putin was offered that was beneficial for him and not for US ? a single item please ?
so no wonder that Kerry was told to go and f..k himself
The feckless and weak Obama is gone. No one is going to tell Trump, Tillerson or Mattis to go f..k themselves. What Liberals, Leftists and Democrats fail to realize is that every time Trump strikes back whether it's about Taiwan or about Nordstrom and his daughter, the leaders of the world check their own bellicosity toward the US. They don't want to wind up on the fist end of his small hand. That advances American interests in the world.
Because Obama always knocked American values and place in the world, I think Trump and many Americans see Putin as a true patriot for his Russian people as our leader should be for us. While Trump can disagree with Putins' illegal and immoral methods, he wants to be a true American patriot. We weren't getting that during the last 8 years. Make America Great Again wasn't just a neat campaign slogan. It stirred patriotic feelings in many Americans who felt their own president and the world had lost respect for them and frankly we have lost a lot of respect for ourselves. Trump was going to return that respect using the tools of trade policy, jobs, a strong military, immigration, tax reform, Obamacare, regulation and others.
