Amazing, the Don draws an equivalency between the US and Putin's murderous past, and it was just a few years ago that conservatives told us President Obama hated America because of far less comments
 
Nearly every day for 8 years obama dropped bombs on civilians in the mideast. So did the three prior presidents. It's been going on for 25 years. Trump is right.

Yeah, I must admit this comment and reaction from some on the right shocked me. Since when have been morally equivalent to the evil empire? Is American Exceptionalism dead on the right now?

I mean Obama rightfully got ripped for his world wide apology tour but now it's ok for Trump to say this? Not in my book it isn't.

Trump didn't say equivalent but yes, america has a murderous past. Urban bombing was our policy in WW2 and korea and Nam and now in the mideast. Hhow many CIVILIANS have we killed since 1940? 10 million maybe 20 million.
 
The political right elected a man they knew was personally tied in with Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin while they spun, twisted and denied it.

Now their guy not only refuses to criticize Russia, he's trying to put forth the notion that we're no better than they are.

And the mindless shit-brained rubes who hate Democrats so badly because of the party's allegience to blacks and women to the point of electing a black President and nominating a woman to succeed him, just sit there stupidly defending this guy in the face of it all.

The right couldn't care less about democracy or the principles and tenets of it.

All they give a shit about is that the black guy is finally out of office and they prevented a woman from taking over.

Even though they had to sell us out to Moscow to do it.

Fucking stupid, ignorant apes.
 
i like it. We have to realize all countries including ours works for its own national interest. If that includes some black ops then it does.
