Yep, and the price for 'getting stuff done' is the subversion of human rights, state-controlled media, censorship, suppression of political dissent through assassination, oligarchic dictatorship. And what do the Russians get for this well-oiled Putin machine of awesomeness? Most of them are living below the poverty line. Russia's economy is in tatters and continues to contract.
You know, for someone who claims not to be a traitor, you have certainly abandoned every single characteristic valued by Americans.

Bullshit. Americans always kept talking to the USSR, and that was when the USSR had the ability
and actually DID INVADE western Europe ( Czechoslovakia)and partitioned Germany.
You are too stupid/young/too much of a Russiaphobic warmonger ( all 3) to understand we've been here before
and we always worked to reduce tensions with the USSR.
We actually negotiated Arms Control Agreements during the Cold War!
NO THE ECONOMY DOES NOT CONTINUE TO CONTRACT -you are a liar. dumb ass.
Russia's economy is recovering well
The country is recovering nicely from a recession and should see economic growth of 1.4% this year, according to a new report by the International Monetary Fund.
he IMF welcomed Moscow's plan to bring down its budget deficit, rebuild foreign currency reserves, privatize some state-owned companies and purge weak banks from the financial system.
But it warned that the lingering effects of sanctions could still deter investment, and Russia's government needed to pursue a much wider reform agenda to reduce the economy's dependence on oil and other commodities.
Over the next few years, the IMF expects Russia's economy to grow by about 1.5%. That compares with growth rates of more than 3.5% between 2010 and 2012.

Why Consumer Confidence Improved in Russia in June 2017
http://marketrealist.com/2017/07/why...-in-june-2017/
Retail sales in Russia (RUSL) also rose 1.2% on a year-over-year basis in June 2017, higher than the 0.7% gain in the previous month. June retail sales met market expectations and saw the strongest rise in retail sales in the last two and half years. Sales of non-food items increased, while those of food, beverages, and tobacco fell in June 2017 as compared to the previous month
You're simply spouting the ridiculous that you can't backup.
Do you think Trump will ever match this?

Putin’s struggle amid a Russia in the throes of change
July 1, 2017
Highlights:
The Russian government has little flexibility in adopting an economic program to address the demands made on it. Not only does it have a shrinking economy, a stagnant oil price, a hemorrhage of funds flowing out of its reserves, but a daily bill of about three million dollars a day in its posturing and aggression in the Donbas and Crimea plus another four million dollars a day in the Syrian campaign
What Putin has created is a society of Vampire Communism where the Undead suck the life blood from private corporations and government agencies; leaving drained and powerless structures behind them.
Putin may think he can beat and bludgeon the youthful followers of Navalny but it is very unlikely that he can beat down the pressure of an organized work force in the independent unions and the might of the Russian Army. The unions have the ability to shut things down; the military have the weapons and the training.

This is a really good and through examination of the economic woes and rising dissent in Russia.

Trump's biapartisan and reaching out to whom?? the self-professed "resistance?"
how do you reach out to anyone who is dedicated to your destruction?
Look at Obama's "outreach"
do you think and Dem would come to the White House?So far, he has summoned Republicans and Democrats to the White House. He has used public forums to make a direct pitch to the people. He has turned to his political operation to air campaign-like TV ads.
He jawboned on public forums -why is that "bipartisan"
and he put on a bunch of pro-Obamacre ads...
You are seriously going to call that outreach?
I'm not going to say Trump has been much better -
but then I'm not making the ridiculous claim Obama was "bi-partisan"
which goes back to my original point. we as a nation cannot get anything done no matter whom is in office
