our credit-ability is gone. I hope Iranians go through with their cyber attack secretly.

He is just baiting Americans and there are alot of us who won't get baited that is fine for his sick supporters. Sickening.

Diplomacy is no more, why can't people discuss things anymore. All those years when they were talking about Iran Nuclear Deal, going back and forth, John Kerry and his staff did alot of work on that. And this POS comes and dissolves everything, I am sure that is on Putin's orders. Sickening.

But I'll bet even he's surprised by how easily the US has become his puppet.

Who really won the Cold War?

1989 was just a temporary setback, it seems.

Putin planned on this for a very long time, and he struck when we were asleep at the wheel, and Putin took full advantage grooming his grasshopper and making our country and our institutions irrelevant. With all those who did leave all those government agencies I hope they are still investigating and have their feelers out for any trouble on the horizon, may be I am too hopeful.

But then we have to deal with a traitorous Congress and cult45 members who will never sway away from this imbecile.
