Exactly. Stupid hyperbole and meaningless firsts. Get over it.

Not me. Tell it to China.

China can have New York if they want: let the wonderful residents of the Big Apple have a taste of the Communism/Socialism hybrid they've always wanted.

I feel like with Russia we are way past the stage of Diplomacy. It is time for some good chest puffing at the moment.

In the ideal scenario, I'd like to see us go to war with Russia and start up World War 3.

Trump would truly go down in the history books for being part of that.

Either that or to see Trump get impeached for treason and all of his sketchy ethics issues that he has going on.

I really want to see the war scenario happen though. So I could get to do a big "told you so" to the idiots that thought with Hillary we would be going to war and thought there wasn't a chance of Trump doing the same thing.

That's not enough to start a war with Russia, they have had to deal with that before with sanctions from the UN and no fly zones established. So it's bullshit to think that Hillary would all of a sudden cause a war with things that Russia has already experienced.

lol goof

When you take into account that Putin said these things would make him consider war, it's not so much bull**** as a legitimate threat.

Plus, nobody ever said that Trump wasn't going to lead us into war.

Speaking of hyperbole.....

As I noted before, Russia's military is pretty gutted since the breakup of the Soviet Union. They simply do not have the money to support it. They are planning on eliminating a half a million troops this year. ****, Israel could kick Russia's ass in a war, never mind the US with its allies.

Clinton's chest puffing and talk of negotiation over safe zones in Syria is what's called "diplomacy". Look it up.

Trump wanting to circle jerk with Putin is the absolute worst way to go. Putin's playing him like a banjo. Tillerson as Secretary of State? Really? That sure played right into Putin's hands.

Tell me this doesn't stink:
