Putin is killing Americans in uniform in the Gulf, and Trump is perfectly okay with that. Apparently they're all suckers and losers anyway.

WTF have they been pumping into him?

Good speech. Most US press got bamboozled by Bill Barr's scheme. Trump's collusion with Russia was always real, continues to be. www.youtube.com/live/ylvTFvJ...
