Because he has the power of a huge nation behind him, and thoughtlessly initiating a war with Russia isn't the greatest idea. Think Napoleon and Hitler.

That said, Russia is guilty of several serious acts of war against the west, us included, and action must be taken.

It's just...let's be thoughtful about that action.

..or someone in charge that has more smarts than this fat bag of shit. Not only is he beholding to papa Putin, but he's also too damned incompetent to deal with an advesary in a systematic and effective manner.

His answer would be to hit his "big button" on his desk. We are "in limbo" until we oust this butthead and his entire cabal from Washington.

Trump isn't a match for any of the leaders at all, and Putin is clearly pulling his strings.

Collateral damage is an easy thing to ignore on the occasions it doesn't validate our bias. When it does, we get to raise our fists of rage.

As we grow older, we realize these things. It will come to you too, in time.

seems to be getting overly confident and very brazen. He is escalating his aggression towards the west. I am afraid of what he will do to power plants and energy grids.

Russia is at war with the west, it just hasn't be declared yet.

We could fuck him up wayyyyyyy more and he knows it. I truly believe this.

We'd have to work around Pinocchio, of course.

That they used it at all is bad enough. But to use it in such a public place widely traveled at a busy time a day shows what a complete and total disregard for the safety of anyone they were operating with.

Check out the comments to this tweet. This seems to refer to the previous spy/daughter poisoning, not a new attack. I would like to see some other confirmation of this story, if someone here can provide it for me.
