Are We Going To Let Tr**p Get Away With This?....

His denouncing Biden and supporting Putin and Russia is really the final straw.

He's got to be stopped and held accountable.

He's switched sides. He's a traitor.

1. He's been a traitor for YEARS.

6. He was and is a Putin plant

It’s the only thing that made any sense for how he behaved when he was in the White House and how he has behaved since leaving. He is owned by and fears Putin.

8. I believe that the U.S. Secret Service should be an impartial entity....

However, if they have a traitor in their midst they should arrest that traitor even if he, somehow, was a president.

13. There's nobody to hold him to account. So we get treated to the spectacle

of a former American president cheering on our enemy as he attacks a sovereign country and destabilizes the world. Of course, he did try to overthrow the US government with a bunch of fired-up goons... so is this worse, or just the same?

Putin is playing Biden like a drum. That's just the facts. To point that out isn't treason, nor does it mean you approve of him doing so.

And Putin is pretty smart for doing this now when Cap'n Dementia is the prez. Slo Joe is incompetent, weak, and foolish. That's just the facts. To point that out isn't treason, nor does it mean you approve of him doing so.

China would be smart to do the same. That's just the facts. To point that out isn't treason, nor does it mean you approve of China doing so.

Trump stating that Putin's tactics are savvy is in no way an endorsement of Putin's actions. It is merely a statement of fact. To use a DU phrase "Putin is playing three-dimensional chess will Biden is playing checkers."

Hitler was smart in how he played Chamberlain and Daladier. That isn't praising Hitler, just stating a fact.

Putin was smart in how he played Biden. That isn't praising Putin, just stating a fact.

Chamberlain and Daladier were stupid in handling Hitler. That is fact, not disloyalty to the UK or France.

Biden was stupid in handling Putin. That is fact, not disloyalty to the US.

I found this
Quote
What Trump said: “I said, ‘This is genius,’” Trump said in the interview. “Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine, of Ukraine ― Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful.”

“So, Putin is now saying, ‘It’s independent.’ A large section of Ukraine. I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s going to go in and be a peacekeeper.
“That’s strongest peace force. … We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy. … I know him very well. Very, very well.”

"Cunning" and "calculating" would be better word choices than "genius" or "savvy," which sound complimentary.

I hate to admit it, but aside from the MSM, Trump's own mouth is often his own worst enemy. And '22 and '24 are too damn important to give the MSM more ammunition than what they already make up themselves.

Does anyone have an actual quote of what Trump said?

The complete interview is available here:

https://www.clayandbuck.com/president-trump-with-cb-from-mar-a-lago/

And the entire quote by Trump and the question he was responding to were:

Quote
BUCK: Mr. President, in the last 24 hours we know Russia has said that they are recognizing two breakaway regions of Ukraine, and now this White House is stating that this is an “invasion.” That’s a strong word. What went wrong here? What has the current occupant of the Oval Office done that he could have done differently?

PRESIDENT TRUMP: Well, what went wrong was a rigged election and what went wrong is a candidate that shouldn’t be there and a man that has no concept of what he’s doing. I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, “This is genius.” Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine. Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful.

So, Putin is now saying, “It’s independent,” a large section of Ukraine. I said, “How smart is that?” And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s strongest peace force… We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy… I know him very well. Very, very well.

By the way, this never would have happened with us. Had I been in office, not even thinkable. This would never have happened. But here’s a guy that says, you know, “I’m gonna declare a big portion of Ukraine independent,” he used the word “independent,” “and we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.” You gotta say that’s pretty savvy. And you know what the response was from Biden? There was no response. They didn’t have one for that. No, it’s very sad. Very sad.

So, yes, Trump's words are being taken out of context, but, as Dandi said, he could have made the point is a better way.

I agree. Trump's mouth is his worst enemy. He is correct though.  Putin played the world like a violin and spanked Biden like a $5,000 dominatrix does to her clientele.

how is Trump's words any different than the losing coach of a football game commending the decisions of the winning coach in leading his team to victory? 

The losing coach is not supporting the winning coach nor did he throw the game on purpose, he's merely pointing out that the winning coach had a superior strategy and executed his plans better.

In the case of Ukraine, Putin saw that America's leadership and expected response is weak and exploited that weakness.  Trump merely pointed that out as a genius strategy.

     Trump's vocabulary is roughly at a 9th-grade level, so I will give him a pass on choosing "genius" rather than "cunning." That said, I remember when second-guessing the POTUS during Iraq was considered "patriotic."

Let's pretend Trump said what DUmmies imagine he said and meant. It's counter-factual, but for the sake of discussion, so what? We aren't at war with Russia.

Looking over this whole situation, something Jesus said comes to mind.
Quote
For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?
Luke 14:28

This is exactly what Putin did. He evaluated how sanctions would affect Russia versus how Europe would deal with a reduction in oil and natural gas and realized that most of the things Biden and Europe are willing to do will make sure they are holding the short straw. What he stands to gain apparently is greater than the cost of acquiring it.

Scrolled through too fast and missed this. I agree 100%  Trump's mouth is his most powerful weapon, but he often points it at his own head or foot or other body part.  It's nice to see a president who isn't perfectly molded plastic all the time, but Trump needs to work on the filter and slowing down a touch to think about how things sound before they come out of his mouth if he is going to stay involved in politics and especially if he's going to run again. 

There are times when it works great (rallies, most casual interviews) but there are times when a well prepared speech/release is more effective, and he is capable of dropping those as well.
