Evil! I've never poisoned my children or grandchildren nor did I boast about doing it as if it was the greatest thing he ever did for them. But that's typical of you cons isn't it. You could care less about how you impact the world--everything for you is about the bottom line. Who cares if it contains heavy metals so long as it's cheap. MW was just boasting about how religious people live 4 years longer than atheists but we atheists haven't been letting our kids lick heavy metals like you cons so who cares if you live four years longs when your lives have the quality of life of a bowl of jello. No, if you want to see evil then look no further that what you cons do to the world. It ain't pretty honey britches. You people aren't exactly loved except by maybe Russia, Poland, and your new best buds the North Koreans. Those are about the only ones who can tolerates a con today--but hey, you guys are nationalists so don't need anyone else do you...

Just two years after working to put Donald Trump in the White House, Russian leader Vladimir Putin is now getting help from Trump to achieve foreign policy objectives that Russia has sought for years.Trump has loudly criticized the NATO military alliance as unduly burdensome for the United States. He has started a trade war with many of those same allies. And on his way to the G-7 summit of industrialized democracies Friday morning, he suggested that those nations re-admit Russia to the gathering ― even though Russia continues to occupy part of Ukraine, the reason it was expelled from the group in the first place.“If this were a screenplay, Hollywood would have thrown it out as too ridiculous,” said Tom Nichols, a Russia expert at the Naval War College. “I can’t think of anybody who thinks this is a good idea.”


“Today crystallizes precisely why Putin was so eager to see Trump elected,” said Ned Price, a former CIA analyst and the National Security Council spokesman under then-President Barack Obama. “For Putin, this is return on his investment, and it’s safe to say that his investment has paid off beyond even his wildest dreams.” On his way from the White House to a Marine helicopter waiting on the South Lawn, Trump told reporters that Putin probably wished that Democrat Hillary Clinton had been elected president rather than him. He has offered this comment many times before, notwithstanding a U.S. intelligence community assessment that Putin interfered in the e******n with the goal of helping Trump win.


“I have been Russia’s worst nightmare,” Trump boasted. “But with that being said, Russia should be in this meeting. Why are we having a meeting without Russia being in the meeting? And I would recommend, and it’s up to them, but Russia should be in the meeting. They should be a part of it. You know, whether you like it or not ― and it may not be politically correct ― but we have a world to run. And in the G-7, which used to be the G-8, they threw Russia out. They should let Russia come back in. Because we should have Russia at the negotiating table.” Steven Pifer, a U.S. ambassador to Ukraine under President Bill Clinton, said to bring Russia back into the G-7 would be to reward Putin’s military aggression. “Russia was booted after it seized and illegally annexed Crimea. It went on to spark a conflict in eastern Ukraine that has k**led more than 10,000. That should not win Moscow an invitation back to the G-8 table,” Pifer said.


Neither the White House nor the National Security Council was willing to elaborate on Trump’s statement Friday. That reluctance makes sense, Nichols said, because Trump’s off-the-cuff remark likely took the rest of the government by surprise. “The president blurts something out, and then the entire foreign policy apparatus has to back up and reverse engineer why it’s not a terrible idea,” he said. “I don’t think this is a policy. I think, like most things in this White House, this is a reaction,” he added, calling it a function of Trump’s need to “win” each week of his reality TV presidency. “What could I do to annoy the G-7? I know! I could bring back Putin, and then at least I would have one friend.”


Trump, despite his frequent claims of “no collusion” with Russia, spent the final month of the p**********l campaign highlighting stolen emails that were damaging to his opponent ― even though U.S. intelligence had already informed him that Russian spy agencies had stolen the emails and were releasing them through WikiLeaks. His son Donald Trump Jr. was in contact with WikiLeaks during those weeks, and in June 2016 he had convened a meeting between top campaign officials and Russians with ties to that nation’s intelligence agencies. Trump Jr. had called the meeting after receiving an offer of material damaging to Clinton. President Trump has also claimed that he hasn’t had business interests in Russia, yet just weeks before v****g began in the 2016 primaries, he was actively seeking Putin’s help for a hotel deal in Moscow.


While Trump has pushed for closer relations with Putin since taking office, he has created rifts between the United States and its traditional allies. He has repeatedly accused NATO countries of c***ting the U.S. by not spending enough on defense ― even though under a 2014 agreement, the countries have a full decade to ramp up their spending to the target level. In recent months, he has antagonized U.S. allies around the world by imposing tariffs on steel and aluminum. Other nations are preparing to raise retaliatory tariffs, leading to fears of a trade war that could hurt the economies of all the parties involved.
