He may admire the fact that Putin puts the interests of Russia first, that's a good thing. Nobody likes leaders who always think of others and neglect themselves

we are moving into a post democratic world, because you cannot have multiculturalism and democracy.
it's impossible and a contradiction

What people forget is the K.G.B never really  disappeared  when Communism finished
Putin himself is an ex K.G.B member...

Yeah they just divided the spoils amongst themselves. As lfc hints maybe that's what Trump wants: a USA without democracy where the elite keep the wealth. He certainly doesn't like parting with any of his own money.

Trump wants good relationships with Russia...because making them an enemy achieves nothing.

Making enemies for the sake of it is not a good policy.

This world faces lots of problems, it is easier to solve them if we all work together.

Trump will make a very good president.

The second country to develop nuclear weapons.

It has the largest arsenal of any country and is investing
heavily in the modernization of its warheads and delivery systems.    

7,300 warheads

United Kingdom    :   215 warheads

It maintains a fleet of four nuclear-armed submarines in Scotland, each carrying 16 Trident missiles.

Its parliament voted in 2016 to overhaul its nuclear forces.

Let Russia worry about that if they are silly enough it won't affect America

Trump's a big Iran-hater. Putin may have to throw them under a bus to stay chummy with Donald

yes any sensible person would hate the regime in Iran, so if Putin listens to Trump well that's good news right there

probably the only thing we can be sure about Trump's foreign policy is that he will be very pro-Israel. that means he's not going to be able to ignore Middle East bogeymen like Iran.

If he doesn't ? well there's not much Trump can do about that. It's Irans loss not Americas

they never bailed anyone out - they were always looking after their own interests. you think they spends billions on military bases all over the world to help the locals. think again..

America and Trump will do deals with individual countries, just between the two and the benefit of both. That's how it will work now

Probably not, it is not so important, Trump wants to bring everything back home, he's right there also.
It's takes a new way of thinking, in American and here and Europe and the other shi@countries all over the world

It won't work like that. Trump will find that out when he has to get off Twitter and makes some real decisions.

It will be difficult because the world doesn't work like that. People had their heads turned in 2016 by people with absolutely no experience of government and decision making.

Trump made himself popular because, like you, many in the US believe they spend billions on military bases all over the world to help the locals. They don't and they never have. The US only takes an interest in foreign affairs when it's in their interests. They stop doing that and they cease to prosper.

And for information there are no "leftists" in US government and never have been.

It is not just the number of Nuclear warheads but also delivery systems and also the overall military power of a country.

I would say the United States still leads in this myself.

Still if people think Trump is nothing but a Putin puppet not much I can say.

What about the people who voted into power are they all Putin's puppets as wellCrazy


Putin is not set on World domination, can one say the same about the United States?

I believe in peace not war(unless it cannot be avoided)

I have also witnessed the mess the United States interference has caused in the Middle East since circa 1990,

they have turned it into a bloodbath Sad

not only gave there been leftists in government in the US, there have been communists who, as in Britain hate their own country
