The chances of me running into Obama are very slim and if I did I wouldn't talk politics.
Either way Obama would probably have learned the facts first, or rather, he would've known them already. I confess I don't. Do you?
Nope. Obama wanted to pardon him and then the justice department talked him out of it. Seems like trump is in the same boat.

But why did they talk him out of it? Because it was wrong to pardon him or because it would further inflame the right?
If the supposed crimes took place before the Mann Act, he should be pardoned, even though he skipped bail. This would be a great chance for Trump to outdo Obama on something.

How about bombing Syria?
Very tough decision to make.
Losing so much sleep over it.
Almost 1/3 of your base is retained because of the brainwashing ideas of victimhood. That's why the left wants open borders. Only way to stay relevant.

Is he a puppet or not?
Putin told him to bomb Syria to make it appear there is no collusion.

Do you really think this was his idea?
In the end it had no effect and he warned his pals for days that it was coming.
Ah...the old Trump doesn't do anything card. Must be great to live in this world where anything can be explained using this logic.

As a parent trying to raise kind, respectful boys, it freaks me out
how normalized we have become to the leader of our nation
trading in middle school insults about people’s personal appearance.

Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd of Fake News NBC just stated that we have given up so much in our negotiations with North Korea, and they have given up nothing. Wow, we haven’t given up anything & they have agreed to denuclearization (so great for World), site closure, & no more testing!

There's obviously a push and pull inside the administration on Russia. A lot of key people in the exec branch and and Rs in congress are quite hawkish, so there's a bit of a schizophrenic approach.
But we can look at it and draw a few conclusions, can't we? On one hand, the reversal of policy on Ukraine arms sales and the announcement of new sanctions. On the other hand, inviting Lavrov and Kislyak to the Oval, publicly accepting Putin's disavowal of election meddling, offering Putin a face to face meeting, the fact that they dragged feet for months on new sanctions, then announced them, but aren't apparently enforcing them.
So it doesn't exactly stack up to puppethood, but it's an odd and continuing display of deference towards a legit bad actor. Is that even subject to debate?
