Should have chosen a different career lol

True to form, you don't answer the question.

You think, in that moment of "asking for info" from Putin, Trump could have spared a word or two for the innocent Ukrainians that Putin is currently slaughtering?

To be clear, I think people have been somewhat harsh on Mearsheimer, there may be a discussion to be had about how we got to this point, even if I don't agree with his view that it's all US driven.... but, contrary to the "this guy was right the entire time" line, he's been pretty wrong on the actual invasion and everything that has transpired since. Putin did do a full scale invasion, Putin did try to take Kyiv, Putin's aims went beyond theoretical NATO membership for Ukraine, and the cultural and linguistic ties to Russia didn't cause Ukrainians to lay down arms... if anything, from what has been reported, it has only caused Ukrainians (particularly those in the east) to reevaluate their views on Russia. EDIT: And on the last point, Yaroslav Trofimov (who has reported for WSJ on the ground in Ukraine) was asked about that question on a Reddit AMA yesterday, and, IIRC, he seemed to suggested that the damage that Russia has done will take multiple generations to fix.... on top of Putin needing to be gone.

Considering Archie's feelings on negotiation with Iran, if he's comparing Trump's actions with that of negotiations with Iran, it stands to reason that Archie now believes that Trump is weak and not patriotic.

"Our partner"

That must be some of that "strong leadership" that certain folks keep talking about

It goes without saying, but the only thing anyone should be asking of Putin is to stop murdering innocent Ukrainians.

Meanwhile, this guy.... I'll be honest, this take sort of defies logic, at least based off of how Greene has looked and carried himself on the field.

I guess I'm unclear what CNN has to do with the fact that Trump, physically, went golfing far more times than Obama did while in office. Doesn't really matter who reports it, CNN, Fox, whoever.... those are just the facts bro.

As for 3/29...

I agree.... trembling in fear at offending Putin doesn't make Putin go away.

Ouch

As I was saying

Umm, OK... do these guys prefer the alternative?

Is that THE Roman Abramovitch?

That's a new one lol

It kinda goes back to the Washington Post headline (ie. GLOBAL UPROAR) versus the more muted reaction that the remarks actually recieved.... including from Moscow! It's fine to be critical of the remarks in terms of geopolitics while recognizing that they aren't a DEFCON 1 situation and that the remarks may be received differently depending on who the audience is. I don't get why that is controversial, but here we are.

Could also be the need to evaluate other talent to determine who gets remaining open roles on the team.

I still really don't get people's desire to bring Reyes over Hill, but idk

Miguel Diaz definitely had a bad day yesterday

As I was saying.
