insane invasion of Iraq, the Russians were losing influence in the Middle East.

Because of the idiot in the WH, and the idiots from the bush administration, the U.S. is losing support in that area.

At least that is my take. I don't think weapons are the issue as far as Russia is concerned, I think it is controlling oil

...made to his base of deplorables. This is an attempt to placate 28 percent of the stupidest Americans on the planet. Nothing more. This is tRump* shooting his mouth off --yet again-- about something he really knows nothing about and has no fucking clue of the ramifications.
