Yeah, a lot of people try very hard to avoid the conclusion that our president is in Putin's pocket, but at this point it's not really a question. The only question is whether Putin is controlling him with bribes or with threats, or both.
I’ll stipulate that Trump is an agent of Putin.
Go down the checklist.
1. Destroyed the Western alliance? Putin wanted that.
2. Threatened a NATO ally over Greenland? Putin wanted that.
3. Pulled out of the intermediate nuclear pact? Putin wanted that.
4. Withdrawing 25-40,000 troops from Western Europe while Russian bellicosity is rising? Putin wanted that.
5. Russian satellites giving coordinates to Iranians killing our soldiers, and his response is “they kill us, we kill them”? What American president says that?
I think he’s been compromised.
The election of Donald Trump may be the greatest foreign policy success in post-Czarist Russian history.

I think Russia should stop murdering innocent human beings and should stop trying to conquer a neighboring country. Why can’t the U.S. administration say that, ever?

Daily, the American president acts as a mouthpiece and lickspittle for the Kremlin. The old Republican Party and conservative movement would have howled for impeachment -- correctly.

Russian propaganda is now showing Russia and the US attacking Europe together. I wonder what Americans are thinking about the side they’re now supposedly on.
Definition: "To Schmitt the bed:" To smugly create a perjury trap that's based on a falsehood and is crafted so idiotically that it turns one into a laughingstock. "A double Schmitt:" To continue to double down even as everyone mocks one's lack of honor.

NEW from @PacificResearch Free Cities Center: @StevenGreenhut examines how CA got into its insurance mess, why recent reforms are showing promise—and why the decisions Sacramento makes next could determine whether the recovery lasts. pacificresearch.org/new-pri-…
This is almost as shocking as Republicans voting with Democrats to gut PEPRA and allow the whole pension-boosting game to start again.
