.MaddowBlog: Republicans want to talk about which American president has shown 'weakness' toward Russia. That's a great idea.

in Geneva this morning with Russian President Vladimir Putin, as part of an important summit that's expected to last several hours. As the meeting got underway, the Republican National Committee issued a press statement, letting reporters know the party's takeaway from the international gathering.

I especially enjoyed the"objectively speaking" qualifier -- as if the assertion were somehow axiomatically true and Ted Cruz was simply unconscious between 2017 and 2020.added that"many" other Republicans"have charged that Mr. Biden has been soft on Russia."for Fox News' website, arguing that Biden was going into today's summit"with a self-dealt weak hand.

It's easy to dismiss such criticisms on the merits, but more important is the fact that Donald Trump's presidency existed. The Republican spent his 2016 campaign, and then his entire failed term in the White House, going to uncomfortable lengths to satisfy his benefactors in Moscow.President Donald Trump has an Achilles' heel when it comes to Russia. Over the years, he's made no secret that he has a soft spot for the country and its authoritarian leader, President Vladimir Putin.

MaddowBlog Lol, they are a joke at this point.

MaddowBlog Biden Obama of course that’s where they 💴 comes

MaddowBlog All 🇺🇸 POTUSes have displayed 'a wishing, a hoping' & unrealistic optimism, when it comes to Russia. They can't seem to get it thru their thick skulls that Russia is diametrically opposed to 🇺🇸, &; everything it stands for. Like lions & hyenas, they're natural enemies. Period!

MaddowBlog MaddowBlog, let’s be honest: GOP is an ongoing idiocy contest. You should help them in their game and call every time an ad-hoc ranking.

MaddowBlog WTF is the GOP talking about. Their boy gave Putin the keys to the country.

HowyofWI MaddowBlog

MaddowBlog I love when our presidents tower over Putin. He can ride shirtless as many times as he wants but just like Obama, the American president looks down on him

MaddowBlog Weakness toward Russia? Let’s see President Bush thought he was a great guy, he “looked into his eyes” when he had him out to the ranch. We have been sending gunboats around the world around the clock threatening countries. Weakness! I think we have been looking like jackasses

MaddowBlog NY Post Biden bumbles, Putin preens. ‘Disgraceful performance by an American President’ Oh wait, that was McCain on Trump, who wants to fight Hunter

MaddowBlog Impeach 46

MaddowBlog I wonder what the Democrats had to do to get an audience with Putin🤔

MaddowBlog He is a loyal, sane patriot. Unlike the LAST guy.

MaddowBlog If Republicans try that strategy in upcoming elections they will get destroyed. That's why the House, AG must have investigating/prosecuting committees, publicize results, educate voters. The Republicans strategy is to lie/change history

MaddowBlog It is. Republicans won the cold war. Democrats has spent the last 35 years mimicking America economic policy after USSR’s. I think Bernie Sanders even honeymooned in Moscow?🤔 I’ve never seen a Republican on a College Campus handing out free copies of the Communist Manifest.

MaddowBlog What else can you do when you are trying to bring down a democracy with no knowen plan other than defying? GOP=Misery.

MaddowBlog Joe gave Putin an (American made) crystal buffalo and aviators. The Former Guy gave Putin state secrets. Questions anyone?

MaddowBlog Lol. For sure.

MaddowBlog

MaddowBlog But Trump showed the GOP that they could lie on all our national media because major news outlets decided it was important to cover 'both sides,' even if one side was lying.

MaddowBlog The GOP has To say that cause I most of them are with Putin in one way or another

MaddowBlog well, one president's son was confirmed receiving money from Moscow... there is that.

MaddowBlog boring

MaddowBlog Great issue of the 21st century is cyberspace. Who will take control of this imperceptible world of the internet hwy? There r no physical dimensions & the players r invisible. Cyberspace, ransomware, & hackers r all words in our vernacular. They'll transform our 🌎, & society!

MaddowBlog Which president pulled our troupes out of Syria only to have the very positions they held occupied by russian troupes who began slaughtering our Kurdish allies.

MaddowBlog Too easy. PutinsPuppet ⬇️

MaddowBlog Which president weakened out NATO Alliance for the benefit of putin.

MaddowBlog I know POTUS is over there giving out the big gifts on taxpayer money (i.e., $6,000 bicycle to Johnson). Wonder what he's giving Putin. Maybe a submarine or two.

MaddowBlog

MaddowBlog You mean like a democratic president who canceled an American pipeline and then promoted a Russian pipeline. Or perhaps him using his influence to shutdown an investigation into his son being on the board of a Russian energy company

Putin has no respect for Biden and no worries about what Biden will do regardless of how 'tough' he talks. The WSJ is trying to put lipstick on a pending disaster. Not job of media. Joe and sponsor are not leaders. Joe uses mind of sponsor.
