What a remarkably stupid and ignorant remark. I forget what a bottom dweller you are, and how low you so easily go. But let's see. Hmm. You are aware that early in his administration he without notice blocked entry of all sorts of people into the US who were otherwise according to US completely entitled to enter?
:100: Amen, brother!The only thing in the nation worse than Trump are his supporters. — Frank Apisa
I de.idn’t criticize what Biden said on the phone. I simply posted the leaked call and quoted how Zelensky described it. I also predicted how it might be used by the Trump campaign. I’m not here to convince you what to think of it
This is the sort of anti-Trump fabulism I’m talking about. It leads to the kind of rhetoric that Claas Relotius would win awards for. — NOS4A2
None of this is even similar to what Trump was investigated and impeached for. — NOS4A2
If you're suggesting a criminal investigation is warranted, then you need to explain what crime Hunter or Joe has committed. Or is it that you're just hoping there's a fishing expedition to try and stir up some political dirt?An investigation into Biden is warranted because his son was on the board of a corrupt Ukrainian energy company at the same time his father was vice-president and point man in Ukraine. The US had just finished helping far right fascists topple the government. Suddenly Biden’s crackhead son is getting lucrative positions at a corrupt Ukrainian energy company. The same has allegedly happened in China. — NOS4A2
Ah YESS, Tovarich NOS4A2!. The US had just finished helping far right fascists topple the government. — NOS4A2
That's the nature of our political system, but it's unfortunate that it has sunk that low. It's particularly sad that Trump slings this kind of mud on a near daily basis (consider his proclaiming that Joe Scarborough should be investigated for the accidental death of Lori Klausutis).A senate probe will suffice. I suppose Ukraine should want to know why the previous American administration was meddling in their politics, as well. — NOS4A2

Whatever anyone might say about Donald Trump it cannot be denied that his greatest contribution will be remembered and celebrated all through American history as having been the man who prevented Hillary Clinton from soiling the White House anew. — Hot Potato
The US has a policy for regime change in Iran. Both the US and the EU were OK with Yanukovich before. And Yanukovich had been negotiating a free trade agreement with the EU since 2012. What happened?I think you’re wrong to downplay American meddling in Ukraine and the failure of the previous administration’s push for regime change there. — NOS4A2
Putin offered to lend 15 bn dollars to Ukraine and to give cheaper oil, and even after that the EU was open for a trade deal. As a Finn I can well understand how difficult this is when Russia puts pressure on a country when it see's the country being under it's sphere of influence. For my country it was a tight-rope act to negotiate a trade deal with the EEC when we had the Soviet Union as a neighbor.Following talks between the Russian and Ukrainian prime ministers, a government decree curtly suspended preparations for the signing of a trade pact and political association agreement between Ukraine and the EU at a summit next week in Lithuania.
The pact has been years in the making and was to have been the centrepiece of Lithuania's current rotating presidency of the EU.
Senior EU officials conceded there would be no signing in Vilnius, the Lithuanian capital. Instead, the Ukrainian government announced that it was "renewing dialogue" with Moscow on trade and economic matters and with the Kremlin's embryonic rival to the EU, the Eurasian customs union.
Well, that's your view of it. :grin: Trump you see has a habit of awkward kissing attempts. But hey, he likes Pence and Putin!Trump wasn't trying to kiss anyone. He was speaking French. "Bonjooour!" — Hot Potato
