Trump Proud To Be Complimented By Putin... Considers It A Great Honor

Rational Nation USA

Hm, The Donald considers it a great honor to be complimented by the ex KGB strongman Putin while at the same time advocating actions that are not only anti civil liberty but most likely unconstitutional as well.

THE HILL - Donald Trump said on Thursday it was a “great honor” to be complimented by “highly respected” Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond,” the GOP presidential front-runner told supporters at a rally in Columbus, Ohio.

“I would get along with him,” Trump said in September. “I would get along with a lot of the world leaders that this country is not getting along with.”

He's also said Putin does not respect President Obama.

    Of course he would get along with a lot of world leader that we are not getting along with now. He thinks just like them. That's one of the problems with Trump.

    Trump is on record as favoring Putin's approach in Syria and approving of Russia's partition of the Ukraine. Under Trump, Putin is likely to win sanctions relief. Neither Putin nor Trump are respectful of human rights or the institutions of democracy. They are cut from the same cloth.

    Good points, all of you. It is hard to imagine anyone rational supporting Putin's "New Russian Empire" aggression against Ukraine, which is entirely unprovoked and is a one-sided conflict, and makes one wonder if Putin wants to finish the job Stalin started (Putin even boasted of being able to take all of Ukraine at will).

    This is not the first non-Russian nation along its borders that Putin has invaded and killed in (see his rape of Chechnya). He is hoping to do the same in Estonia, a country which like Ukraine has long suffered from aggression from Moscow, and like Ukraine, had a large proportion of its population killed off by the large aggressor empire during the 20th century.

    There are many awful things about Trump, and rubber stamping foreign warlords as they order murder and rape just adds to it.

    Someone with an ignorant pro-aggression view said that Ukraine is none of the US' business. Nor is it any of the USSR... er Russia's business.

    Agreed dmark. And as we've seen historically two wrongs seldom make a right. Unless specifically asked by the victims of outside aggression to intervene on their behalf and in the interests pf those requesting the intervention. not the intervening party who as so requested.

    Trump's idea of making America great again is to make people fear us, not earn their respect.

    But it won't be just feat, Jerry. There will be a lot of laughter too.

    Trumpf is, to the sensible and rational folks a complete joke who holds very anti American values.

    He stands as a threat to the ideals and values of our founding documents.

( Reuters ) - Global leaders on Saturday arranged a round of emergency calls to discuss the twin debt crises in Europe and the United States that are causing turmoil in financial markets . After a week that saw $2.5 trillion wiped off global stock markets, they are under pressure to show political leadership and reassure markets that Western governments have both the will and ability to reduce their huge and growing public debt loads. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who chairs the G7/G20 group of leading economies, conferred with Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of a call planned for this weekend by G7 finance ministers and central bankers.

When and How Will it End?

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Birthplace of Independent Conservatism This is America. We are an English speaking nation. We have distinct and traditional American cultural values.

Thoughts On the Civil War and What Precipitated It...

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth Over at Contra O'Reilly Will Hart has been running a interesting series on the Civil War and what the primary causes were. Historians continue to disagree with the root, or primary causes. However it is generally accepted among knowledgeable and unbiased experts that slavery had very little to do with the onset of the War Between the States. Causes were primarily economic and constitutional. Will, in his posts has done a good job of pointing this out with supporting documentation. This site offers the following, a July 2013 article by David Hirsch in support of Will Hart's arguments. Arguments this site wholly concurs with. Arthur Hirsch's recent article about the Battle of Gettysburg reveals a disturbing ignorance of the political dynamics that brought this nation to a war that 150 years later remains the most cataclysmic event in our history ("A defining day relived," July 2). It accepts the sh...
