Donald Trump, so-called President of the United States (a position until recently that was regarded as leader of the free world) has called to Congratulate the Russian Dictator, War Criminal Vladmir Putin on his election victory, a victory in a profoundly rigged election that saw Putin opponents jailed, killed and intimidated.
I could make a kinda-sorta joke about how important that it is that employees keep up a good relationship with their boss (except it's not really a joke). But overally, it's just absolutely monstrous of our illegitimate President to
(1) Congratulate a dictator on his victory in a rigged Presidential election
(2) Congratulate said dictator when he did so after his country has been staging attacks against the US and the West over the past few years including:
-The 2016 Presidential Election cyberattack / information warfare campaign and attempts to subvert our democracy.
-Russian cyberattacks on the US power grid that just earned it sanctions
-The attempted military assault on US Troops in Syria by a Kremlin-backed Private Military Contractor, an assault that ended with 200-300 dead Russian contractors.
-Within the last month, the Chemical Weapon Terrorist attack in the United Kingdom that put 20+ people at risk and was the first chemical weapons use in Europe since World War II.
-Within the last month, as part of his re-election campaign, unveils new nuclear weapons specifically to attack America
Donald J. Trump, President of the United States... the seat of Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Reagan... congratulates this man, whose country attacked ours and continues to do so.
Trump, being an utter buffoon who has absolutely no idea how to amass and wield power, is too stupid to understand that little trollish episodes like this (and let's be clear, that's exactly what this petty man is doing - trolling his domestic political opponents), only serves to undermine his already questionable authority.
Vladmir Putin, a man who laments the fall of the Soviet Union, self defines himself as an enemy of America, and unlike many who describe themselves as such, has acted upon that impulse to systematically attack us. And Donald J Trump wants improved relations with this man.
Exactly how many attacks does the United States have to endure before the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, stops being an ongoing national security incident and acts to actually defend America?
