1. The new "I bet people are too stupid to know this is stupid" talking point from the Trump Administration is to chastise democrats re: Putin meeting because they (who weren't alive at the time) didn't chastise Roosevelt for meeting with Stalin. Sigh...idiocy....
2...when Hitler opened up a second front by his invasion of Russia in violation of the non aggression pact, a military alliance with Russia became a war necessity. We were at war with Nazi Germany, Nazi Germany invaded Russia, thus Russia and the United States had a military...
3...alliance of necessity. They met in the Tehran Conference with Churchill, to agree upon opening a second western front against Germany. That came right after the Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran. Then there was the Yalta Conference, where the allied forces met to discuss....

6...completely uneducated, they will say anything to justify their stupid ideas, the "whatabout" argument is all they have, and they depend on their slavish followers who have never read a history book not to know they are spewing garbage. Bottom line:....
7...Putin directly attacked our democracy. Trump dismisses it as a lie. This poses a more important long-term threat to American national security than 9/11 did. This is a major nation state, with vast resources, engineering a brilliant effort to spew falsehoods to undermine....
8...our elections and place American democracy in question. We should be sanctioning Russia, aligning NATO (which has also been attacked) in military preparations that lets Russia know we will defend our democracy and if it doesnt back down, we will act through whatever means...
9...necessary. But instead, Trump Administration denies the existence of something every western ally agrees is happening, all of our intel services agree, and the Justice Department agrees. Why does Trump disagree? Stupid or complicit. But DONT let them start this BS new....
10...talking point that there is ANY comparison between Roosevelt meeting with a country that is fighting the same enemy, and Trump meeting the enemy while denying the enemy attacked.
