Words escape me to adequately express both sorrow and anger at the depravity, corruption and indifference of President Trump who continued to “make nice” with Putin while the Russians placed bounties on the killing of U.S. and British troops in Afganistan. I don’t believe for a second that he was not briefed about this. What the hell has Putin got on President Trump that he, Trump, won’t act to protect American lives? The worst answer is that Putin has nothing, it is about continuing Russian help with his reelection, just like Trumps denial and mismanagement of Coronavirus is about his reelection.
And I heard the “white power” chant the first time I viewed that tweet. Maybe I’ll get into the statues and monuments thing in a future post. Trump is just using it to further divide us. Right now I am sick to my stomach about his failure to call out Putin about these bounties and take some decisive action to force Russia to stand down.
