The stupid thing is that the unified West had no reason to fear Putin's hollow threats until Trump started doing everything he can to destroy what makes the West strong. He wants to roll over in front of Russia and make the US Putin's bitch.
The West won't roll over like him though. They'll strengthen their alliances against Russia and will become something far stronger. It just won't involve the US anymore.
Trump is afraid of putin because of the shit he has on trump. Trump is a russian asset, there is no doubt about it.
Putin may or may not have video proof of Trump raping a child but Trump sure acts like Putin might.
After all this im scared that if something like that was released let's say tomorrow third of country would not care.
I still kinda want it to be the "pee tape" everyone was speculating about last time around. Because that's the funniest possible piece of kompromat I can think of that Putin could have on ole Donnie Boy. Realistically though considering his longstanding friendship with Epstein...
I doubt that Hitlerpig would even be embarrassed by a pee tape. He'd probably be proud of it. If Putain has anything on Hitlerpig that Hitlerpig is legitimately embarrassed or afraid of, then it must be legitimately bad/evil. My money is on kids being involved....
He'd want to hide anything that shows him in a subordinate role, so there might be video of him bottoming in some particularly humiliating way. He'd also want to hide anything involving rape of minors. He's depraved enough to have done either or both.
That sounds like some deliberately, misleading propaganda dropped by Trump side to gaslight people and convince them any further Tape would be a fake one if it wasn’t that specific pee tape
I'm not sure why you assume it's one or the other. My money is on both. Probably has a whole library to choose from...
Less assuming it is one or the other than guessing which one seems more likely of the two. Probably I'm hoping that it's just the pee tape because it's the most funny option I've seen laid out. That all of this stems from an act that in and of itself registers at "okay, that's kind of weird" but isn't like omg your life is over y'know?
P[aedo] tape
And yet, the Q people: silence
I've always figured the pee tape doesn't really exist. But that doesn't stop the Russians from spreading rumors about it, anyway. It's another way to get into Trump's head. It stokes his paranoia even further.
I thought the pee tape didn't exist either, but then a Russian Call Girl was able to place Manafort on Russian Oligarch Derapaska's yacht, because she was there, and then she claimed to be the person that brokered the underage prostitutes in the Pee Video. Her story about Manafort on the yacht turned out to be true, and Manafort was convicted, so she seems to have some credibility.
For those who don't know what the Pee Pee Tape really is, supposedly HitlerPig was gifted a couple of underage prostitutes, and he wanted them to pee on the bed that the Obamas slept in when they visited Moscow as president.
Apparently they didn't pee on him, so it isn't that sort of kompromat. It's more him directing the scene, and taking great pleasure in them peeing on a bed that Obama happened to sleep in once. Weird.
When they’re children they’re called sex trafficking victims, not prostitutes.
Besides being Krasnov, what else does Vlad have on his Orange US Sock Puppet?
Him with epstien minors
Trump has been a money launderer for Putin for the past 3 decades. Trump's entire reason to own international resorts is to use them for laundering money. It's easy. Build a huge resort, say it's full even when it is not, and it just so happens to be that half the guests paid in cash. Well, the cash guest, Putin and his oligarchy bros, said "Keep this up or we will ruin you". So the choice is to make money or lose it all/get killed. Pretty easy choice right?
Whether or not he's a pedo who did illegal shit on camera is another story
Fast forward to today.
Definitely some tapes of him fucking a way too young girl in Russia
Fucking something or getting fucked by something.
I abhor Putin, but he is a legit badass hard motherfucker; whereas Trump is pudding by comparison.
Really, I’m shocked, daily, that so many Americans have rallied around this guy, McRib Bonespurs over here, as their populist “tough guy.” It’s so goddamned weird.
Not really a shocker for me tbh, most Americans that I met (and I worked in several US companies so I met some) were insecure loudmouths. Sure some of them were very good at their job but when talking to them they behaved like they invented hot water.
I'm contrast, in my part of the world we have a saying which translated would be "shuts up and does/makes".
Until now Putin did, Trump on the other hand is just making noise.
Mr Trump pledged to end the war on “day one” of his presidency. And as the conflict drags on, the giant question mark hovering over western Europe is how long it will take for the US to make good on its promise.
Why do journalists insist in taking Trump's "promises" seriously in any capacity? An otherwise good article tainted by these two ridiculous fucking sentences. He won't make good on his promise because he is incapable due to being fucking terrified of Putin the thing the fucking article is about.
However, she is equally scathing of European leaders for not coming to terms with this new reality sooner. “The fact that the Europeans are so shocked by his deference to Putin actually shows that they haven’t also done their homework,” she said.
She even literally spells it out later in the article but I guess the journalist wasn't listening.
How can the American elite suppress workers with ease but they are helpless now that their president is controlled by Russia?
Nobody with power is acting on this, or any of the policies that destroy the economy.
What is the compromat that Trump has on the thousand American billionaires?
One billionaire financing the organization of a general strike would be enough.
Why does that not happen?
He's also got everyone in power. You think they only got Trump in his pocket. We would need a complete purge of congress on both sides
He. The one whose name we don't speak. Putin?
Russia lost in Syria. There is no way Putin is in control.
A heavily militarized Rambo circle-jerking police force more than happy to unleash the dogs of war is a pretty good deterrent.
pretty much every cop is a right wing fashy thug, too.
Have to be.
anyone else would be too educated, too moral, and to much a threat against the institutional corruption.
Tbf I'd be shit scared too.
Putin, who has maintained the same “tight team” of top diplomats around him for the past 25 years, dispatched his Stanford-educated economic adviser Kirill Dmitriev, former ambassador to Washington Yuri Ushakov, and Sergei Lavrov, his comic villain foreign minister, to recent talks in Saudi Arabia.
“These guys are really skilled diplomats. They all speak absolutely excellent English,” said Hill. “They can talk the hind leg off a donkey. They can turn you around in circles. They’ve got an answer for everything.”
Batting for the US are Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state, Mike Waltz, Mr Trump’s erstwhile national security adviser, and his special envoy Steve Witkoff, a former real estate dealer. Between them, they have less than a year’s-worth of cabinet-level experience.
So, what does the dancing Russian bear make of these three cotillion debutantes? “They’re eating the neophytes on the US side for dinner,” said Hill.
I saw Hill's testimony and she is extremely credible and intelligent. This is her bottom line, and it is that we are fighting global information and geopolitical warfare against a merciless and shrewd veteran with a clown car circus act.
Hey, circus clowns are the real deal.
I have learned over the years, when this woman speaks - you should pay attention!
She's a neocon, a student of scumbag Reaganite or Cheneyoid cold warriors like Richard Pipes. One of the only good things to be said for her is her recognition that Trump is an idiot. But she's not really all that different in that regard than John Bolton, though less inclined to say outrageous things to get headlines.
Who thinks they've actually spent the money to Maintain thier nukes. Try it I say. All these scumbags can go hide in thei bunkers and their wealth will Mean jack squat. They'll need to fend off the hordes of people who will rip them limb from limb before the end of the day.
There's a very high chance that most of them no longer work. Although if even just 5% of the ones deployed are working, that's still over 80. Which is more than enough to start WW3.
And it's almost unthinkable that they haven't kept strict maintenance on at least a few.
