Russia is strengthening support and alliances with Venezuela, Cuba, and Iran. Back in March Russia sent 100 troops to Venezuela, Trump supposedly told Putin to get out...which Putin ignored.

Recently Russia sent a missile cruiser to Cuba, while taking a position against the US and pledging to help them against bad US policies. They also sent a military plane to Venezuela. Russia has apparently locked down the oil in Venezuela with loans.

Iran is an ally of Cuba and Venezuela, and Putin weighed into the tensions between Trump and Iran with a public statement right before Trump's "ready to attack but called it off" that it would be stupid for the US to attack Iran. I read that as a threat, not a philosophical comment on Trump's intelligence.

So with Russia taking sides with Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran, it puts Trump in a position of having to cave in on his talk of attacking, Oh, and China is apparently in the mix against the US as well. These articles give some historical background to the alliances that have developed here.

No matter what Trump does, if he does not make war it is bad and if he does it is also wrong. The problem is that he won the elections although his opponents did all kinds of machinations and were so sure of the victory that they still can not understand what happened that they lost.

If Putin is such a bad ass, why didn't he do anything when Russians troops fired at our guys in Syria and they returned fire and killed 200 of Putin's troops. Putin didn't a damn thing.

You're cheering for Putin, are ya? That's real American of you. Looks like Putin doesn't love Trump as much as you Soviet proletariats had hoped.

Even though this has been dis proven completely and repeatedly, you continue to cling to your security blanket. What ever you need to do to live in the Trump American Nation, I guess.
