Jesus, Mary, & Joseph, Krasnov Is Looney Tunes

Krasnov publicly stated he can't understand why people hate Russia but love Germany & Japan.

He then made the claim that Putin fought in WW II, a claim that for anyone else would require a straight jacket. There aren't many soldiers left from WW II, I guess Putin is one of them?

Krasnov then claimed that 51 million Russians died in WW II, the actual number is closer to 27 million, maybe Krasnov just rounded the number up?

Yeah but, Joe Biden stutters when he speaks intelligently.

...careening over the cliff with no brakes.

The reaping is going to come a whole lot sooner than anyone would wish. This country is in serious trouble, and Trump in obvious decline, unfiltered, and with no brakes, is a prescription for certain disaster.

Russian propaganda. Putin is the strongman he admires the most. Whether kompromat has affected the connection or not, Trump's weak, rattled mind has latched onto his hero-in-waiting, then spews the ridiculous including numbers he pulls from his ass.

The man is a crazed wreck, a greed head and traitor to the United States of America.

There's a reason Russia Today refers to the man as The Destroyer.

Would have been for a reporter to first ask Trump what year WWII ended before divulging Putin’s actual birth year, just to see if Trump could even accurately date the war’s end.

who thought the Civil War took place in the 1960's. Some just have no sense of time and history. One placed the war in the correct century only to ask what kind of gas they put in their car back then. Lol, wtf.

…before with Trump. (I’m sorry. I don’t have a link.) Trump is so stupid he’s willing to throw away the 75 years since the end of WWII during which Japan and Germany have been allies and during much of which the USSR posed a great threat to the West. And, obviously, now, as Russia, the threat remains but Trump can’t recognize it because his greed and imbecility are in the way.

... nations who joined us in embracing values of global citizenship -- values like human-rights, rule of law, religious freedom, self-governance, and economic justice, and the thinking underlying those values, among them rationality, compassion as a moral imperative, and scientific inquiry -- are generally our natural allies. And nations who reject those values, are typically autocratic nations with expansionist ambitions that put them at odds with moral conduct and international law.

i don't know what is in his head, but his conduct at every turn tells us, and the world, that he rejects the values of global citizenship and embraces the nations that reject those values. An upside down view at odds with a vast majority of Americans. Hence, his confusion.
