Republicans and even Fox are flipping,
We can't allow them to backtrack. It is extremely unpopular right now to be pro-Putin, pro-Russia and that is the only reason we are seeing GQP politicians saying bad things about Putin and Russia.
I have a solution to end their hypocrisy;
What do you think about Speaker Pelosi writing up a resolution, not only condemning Putin and the Russian invasion, but condemning Trump's praise of Putin. Put the resolution up for a vote on the House floor, force Republicans to publicly denounce Trump.
Anyone have the Speaker's phone number so I can suggest this?
:whatever:

3. Horrible miscalculation
White people suffering on TV. Not good for their audience. Throw in the old people who grew up hating Russia. I’m working on a post about this.

4. I agree
The president needs to speak about Ukraine at the SOTUS and ask everyone to stand that supports Ukraine.
:thatsright:

9. But Trump is still their leader,
if Republicans are sincere about denouncing Putin and Russia then they need to denounce their leader's praise of Putin.

6. I think President Biden should call the Republicans out by name tomorrow night.
Especially that f--g moron and others that want to invade Canada or support white supremacy.

11. I'm going after their leader, Trump.

14. FOX viewers must have whiplash this morning?
Watching their favorite "truthtellers" do an about-face so quickly?
Where is their wanna-be Putin? Does he still think Putin is a "genius"?
Aren't they really nothing more than two peas in a pod?

18. Of course they are flipping - there is no Russian money going into their pockets
As long as there are sanctions, there will be no more Russian money going into their pockets. They want this over with fast. They don't really care if Putin stays in power. Some other Russian oligarch will take his place.
As for asking Speaker Pelosi to condemn Trump I don't know if that would work.
To contact her, start here: 202-224-3121. That is the number for the House of representatives. The contact form on her own website is for her constituents only - https://www.speaker.gov/contact

22. Remember also,
that Trump just won the straw poll at CPAC. He is the leading GQP presidential candidate for 2024. The American voters need to know if Republicans are going to condemn Trump's praise of Putin. Trump did not condemn Putin, Trump condemned the invasion.

34. I guarantee you that Republicans
will try to blame president Biden for mishandling the Russian invasion. The opposite is the truth. President Biden was the leader in keeping NATO and our coalition together. President Biden convinced Germany to abandon the gas pipeline, convinced Germany to do SWIFT. Now Germany is one of the leading countries combatting Putin.
Finland is getting ready to vote to join NATO and Sweden may be next. President Biden repaired all of the damage that Trump did to NATO and to our allies, but Republicans are going to say that Trump would have done a better job.
We need to get them on record now, condemning Trump's praise of Putin.

36. Trump is not your average private citizen.
He just won the CPAC straw poll which means he is the leading GQP presidential candidate in 2024. Trump is a former president who inserted himself into the Ukraine invasion. Trump took the side of our enemy, even Mitt Romney called his praise of Putin almost treason.

40. President Biden has done a fantastic job,
but I guarantee that the GQP will try to blame him for the invasion. If Republicans are sincere in condemning Putin they can show it by voting on the House floor.

44. Trump is a pro-Putin, pro Russian sympathizer who tried and is still trying to overthrow
the US government and a fair presidential election. He should be labeled as such without question.
No more revisionist history or GQP amnesia. That's what he and his followers are: a foreign and domestic danger to American democracy.

45. Maybe other DUers here
could call or email the Speaker's office with the suggestion to condemn Putin, the invasion, and Trump's praise of Putin.
It is easy to email her, or call her. I think it would help if more people contacted her.
Hey, she is the best Speaker ever, if this is a dumb idea she will act accordingly.
Star Member gab13by13 (8,161 posts)
53. They will turn in a heartbeat,
and I guarantee you will hear them say things like, president Biden did a terrible job in Ukraine. Trump would have stopped the invasion.
I guarantee they will flip again in 2024 and renew their fealty to Trump. Get them on record now while the invasion is going on.

54. EXCELLENT idea.
There’s instability in the trumPutin axis right now. That needs to be EXPLOITED. And RIGHT NOW.
Ukraine presents a PERFECT opportunity to diminish them both. Glue them together in the public mindset. Encourage all doubts, shaky loyalties, second thoughts about taking THAT side; and reinforce the perception that trump is a bad guy CUZ HE’S SIDING WITH THE BAD GUY. Guilt by his close association.
There have already been reports about how effective the US-led “information war” online, on social media has been against the Russians. This is FREAKIN’ FANTASTIC news!!!!!

:whatever: Trump strengthened NATO by encouraging them to pay for their own defense. You know, do what they agreed to do.

They’re still grasping at straws. This is what happens when they ensconce themselves in bazarroworld and their only filter is themselves.

As I posted in the other thread about this, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=128416.0 :
In what perpendicular DUniverse is Rs and Fox accurately pointing out that Putin played Biden like a star forward plays a hockey puck being "pro-Putin" and "pro-Russia"?

Wow. Serious spin there. :o
I am curious as to how they will blame President Trump for Taiwan falling to the CCP under Brandon's watch. That will be comedy gold.

As with every world event, DUmmies believe they own the narrative outright. Because a couple of horse's asses forget to finish their thought about Putin and/or China, the entirety of the Right is for Russia. Because Tucker Carlson exposes leftist hypocrisy on every show, he's a tool of Putin. Because we have the gall to point out that Biden is even less effective and inspiring than 0bama, we aren't "patriots." As if 2001-2009 or so never happened.
This will all take care of itself in November when the 99.75% of the voting public that had no idea what DU is gets to have its say.

Trump didn't praise Putin, ya ****ing morons. It's good to know your enemy. Patton was so enamored by Rommel's tactics that he read his book and studied him. He also called Rommel a genius.
Damn you people are stupid. There's no wonder why EVEN democrat presidents get Republicans to serve as SecDef. If it were up to you clowns we'd be speaking another language.

You can tell how worried they are about the upcoming elections. They think that they can misquote and twist words to swing the vote, but the polls keep telling them that America is not happy with the Dems. DU is a predictable barometer. Their effusive, ridiculous praise of Slo-Joe and the other Dems is a clear indicator that they already think that Congress is going to flip to the Republicans. They already have their "voter suppression" excuse rolled out, but will never acknowledge that voters care about things like the economy, inflation, fuel prices, foreign and domestic policy, etc. All the things that Biden has royally screwed up.
