H.R. McMaster: 'Putin got a lot more than he bargained for'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

H.R. McMaster, who served as former President Trump's national security adviser, said on Sunday that Russian President Vladimir Putin "got a lot more than he bargained for" when he invaded Ukraine last week.

Appearing on CBS's "Face the Nation," McMaster said Ukrainian forces have done a "tremendous" job.

"I think Putin got a lot more than he bargained for. He's in a very difficult position," McMaster told host Margaret Brennan. "And I think anything we can do obviously financially - going after his international criminal enterprise with sanctions and so forth - is important. But the support for Ukraine's ability to defend themselves is also important."

McMaster added that Putin had failed to understand that Ukraine is not an autocratic regime where a political decapitation would be effective.

1. Putin is finding out that the world is against him.

His own country isn’t too thrilled either.

2. Putin believed his own BS about Ukraine not being a country

3. Where was McMaster when we needed him?

Sorry, these people who waited to write their memoirs are guilty of following illegal orders and dereliction of duty, imo.

5. I have zero respect for McMasters...

he took the job knowing what Trump was...and he, like Kelly, and Tillerson capped off their careers babysitting a know-nothing depraved sociopath..
