TFG doubles down on praise of Putin

Trump defends praise of Putin in days since Russian troops invaded Ukraine

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Former President Donald Trump defended his praise of Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday while also calling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky "a brave man" amid Russia's deadly invasion of his country.

"He's a brave man, he's hanging in," Trump said of Zelensky in remarks at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, even as he declined to back away from complimenting Putin as "smart."

"The problem is not that Putin is smart, which, of course, he's smart," Trump said. "The problem is that our leaders are dumb... and so far, allowed him to get away with this travesty and assault on humanity."

"Putin is playing [President Joe] Biden like a drum and it's not a pretty thing to watch," he continued.

The former President has repeatedly praised Putin in the days since Russian troops crossed into Ukraine and began launching rocket strikes against the country's capital of Kyiv. His comments on Zelensky come days after he lavished praise on Putin, calling the Kremlin leader "genius" and "savvy" in a radio interview. Those remarks were the latest of many instances where the 45th President has approved of, or admired, authoritarian rulers. In addition to Putin, Trump has previously made positive comments about North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

"Putin is playing [President Joe] Biden like a drum and it's not a pretty thing to watch," he continued.

He's played Biden so well that his army is getting torn to shreds and his economy is in big trouble. There's already a big run on the banks for dollars and that's before the markets open tomorrow. NATO is more unified than ever with Sweden and Finland making noises to join. Oh, and there are demonstrations in every major city in Russia.

Trump is right about one thing. It's not pretty to watch for Putin and for those in the US like Trump who have had their lips glued to Putin's glutes for the last five years.

It's been more than five years. It's estimated the TFG is in debt to Russian banks for over a billion dollars.

Now, they're going and saying, 'Vladimir Putin is Adolf Hitler,' as if that isn't a good thing.

Who's Nick Fuentes?

From Wikipedia:

Nicholas Joseph Fuentes (born August 18, 1998) is an American far-right and white nationalist political commentator and live streamer. The Anti-Defamation League has described Fuentes as a white supremacist. A former YouTuber, his channel was permanently suspended in February 2020 for violating YouTube's hate speech policy. Fuentes has described himself as an American nationalist, Christian conservative, and paleoconservative. He has expressed antisemitic views and Holocaust denial and is opposed to women's right to vote.

He is the organizer of the America First Political Action Conference in Orlando where Marjorie Taylor Greene spoke last weekend. Paul Gosar provided a recorded message and spoke at the same event last year. Former Iowa Congressman Steve King, who was removed from his committee assignments for racist comments before being defeated in a primary in 2020 was also a speaker.

Well, too many Republicans do, such as Wendy Rogers:

Wendy Rogers said white nationalists are ‘patriots’ and called for hanging political enemies

https://www.azmirror.com/2022/02/26/wen ... l-enemies/

A Republican state senator fawned over the leader of a white nationalist movement on Friday and told his followers that she fantasizes about hanging her perceived enemies from gallows.

“I’ve said we need to build more gallows. If we try some of these high-level criminals, convict them and use a newly built set of gallows, it’ll make an example of these traitors who have betrayed our country,” Sen. Wendy Rogers, R-Flagstaff, said Feb. 25 in her speech to the white nationalist America First Political Action Conference in Florida.

Rogers told the white nationalists who were assembled in the ballroom at the Orlando World Center Marriott that they were “patriots.”

She addressed the AFPAC crowd remotely, speaking from Arizona, where she said she was busy pushing legislation. Rogers effusively praised Nick Fuentes, the event’s racist organizer, who she said had been “de-platformed everywhere” because he says things that upset “the media and the far left.”

“I truly respect Nick because he’s the most persecuted man in America,” she said to loud cheers, adding later that he was “standing up to tyranny” by creating AFPAC.

Fuentes, an advocate of turning America into a nation only for white Christians, is one of the leaders of the so-called “groyper” movement — along with the founder of American Identity Movement, a white nationalist group formerly known as Identity Ervopa — and Rogers is one of its emerging icons. The groyper movement is a collection of white nationalists who seek to normalize racism and make it a part of mainstream conservative political ideology.

AFPAC opened with Fuentes soliciting a round of applause from the crowd for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The white nationalists chanted in response, “Putin! Putin! Putin!”

In his closing speech, Fuentes said “the United States is the evil empire in the world.”

I don’t see you condemning anyone. You just post other peoples stuff you read. Most of the time when someone agrees with something, they post it. So I assume you some what agree.

No, you're not. You're passing around bullshit stories you find on the propaganda sites you inhabit that are gathered or made up by bullshit organizations like media matters and others funded by the likes of George Soros for the purpose of keeping useful idiots, like you, outraged. They know you will never bother to verify anything they tell you, as you've proven by your refusal to even listen for yourself to the actual audio of Trump's statement they completely mischaracterized and then saturated the internet with. You and your propaganda sites will never post THIS, will you?

Shit, I'm not even done editing my post and already the stalker has struck. I do highly recommend everyone use the ignore feature of this bored on the stalker. You won't miss anything, You all know everything he's going to say anyway.

You played an 18-second clip of Trump's comments. Here's some of what you didn't play.

Yesterday reporters asked me if I thought President Putin is smart. I said of course he’s smart. The problem isn’t Putin is smart — which of course he is smart — it’s that our leaders are dumb. NATO nations are not so smart, they are looking the opposite of smart.

If you had a ruble for every time that Trump has complimented Putin since he got into politics...

well right about now you'd be struggling to buy a $1 soda at McDonalds considering how much the ruble has fallen thanks to those $2 worth of sanctions that would allow Putin to take over an entire country.

Here's a priceless clip from one week ago, the night the Russians launched their attack, when Donald Trump called up Laura Ingraham's show. In about one minute, we get to hear:

1) Laura Ingraham says "We had a really pathetic display from the Ukrainian president Zelensky earlier today where he... in Russian was essentially imploring Vladimir Putin not to invade his country. Now we basically have the Ukrainian ambassador to the United Nations looking like a defeated man.

2) Trump then mentions the "amphibious attack" by Americans and Laura shouldn't know about that because U.S. forces should be doing that secretly.

3) Ingraham then had to correct him that it was the Russians who attacked. Trump: "I thought you said we were sending people."

Trump has a very keen grasp on current events. As for Ingraham, I wonder what she thinks of the "pathetic" President Zelensky now. People don't have to pass around bullshit stories. Trump gives them plenty of 100% Grade A prime moronics.

Three Republicans today voted against a House resolution expressing support for Ukraine. The resolution passed 426-3. One of the opponents was Matt Rosendale of Montana. T-girl must be so proud of the man she supported to represent Montana in the House of Representatives. --Bob

I know it's a stretch for you, Bobbo, but:
A. you don't get to say what I "must" do or not do, feel or not feel.
B. People of the same political affiliation can disagree on some matters and not others.

Not everyone walks in lock-step with members of their party. I know, I know, don't let the concept pop your brain, boo.

Oh you're so progressive. Wait. Maybe not. Anyway reference the previous threads re Repub weirdos.
Must find some cuckoo for cocoa puff dems to parade out.

Wait. That's too easy.

I'm a Democrat. For us, party discipline is a largely unknown concept. As you would know if you ever read news sources not named Fox.

But how the hell does ANYONE oppose on the floor of the House a resolution supporting Ukraine? --Bob
