    So Putin gets all huffy because President Joe Biden called him a "killer" in an interview.

    Russia recalled its U.S. ambassador on Wednesday in protest.

    My, my how things have changed. For the better.

    Instead of publicly sucking the Russian despot's cock, the new U.S. president actually calls him out for being a tinpot dictator and threat to the free world.

    @Paladin is overjoyed.

    It's a scandal!

    Next thing you know, we'll discover that he isn't trading love letters with Kim Jong Un.

    How refreshing to have a President who cares more about standing up for what's right than his "good relationship" with a murderous tyrant.

    I love the fact that a reporter asked White House press secretary Jen Psaki whether she could clarify Biden's comment or if he regretted them. Her response: "Nope. The President gave a direct answer to a direct question."

    You heard it here first: Saying that the people who teach our kids should have decent pay and working conditions is exactly the same as murdering people.

    It’s amazing to see republican supporters supporting Putin over Biden and calling Biden a pussy over the “strong” Putin

    This is how fucked up America is right now

    not at all what I said. We can't control much of the madness involved with the necessity of dealing with other world leaders/militaries/governments, but we can at least handle our own issues:

    Why are you fascinated with our concerns? Don't you have maple sap to collect, and baby seals to club and shit like that to keep you busy?

    And yet the GOP still voted against that holiday for honoring the cops on Jan 6th.

    Blue lives matter until they can't be used to shut down black lives. :borg:

    Why are you so upset at a simple observation?

    I’d say it’s because you’re concerned that people in your party prefer Putin over your president but you’re too stupid to grasp that so maybe this is just more of a Pavlovian response for you, which just illustrates how partisan you are

    I'm not triggered or upset over this. I just find it often borderline ridiculous that Ten Lubak is always busting on how bad America is (especially politically) when he doesn't even live here and has no no skin in the game whatsoever. Yes, some could argue that whatever America does affects the world - thus it could affect him too - but America is also on the hook to defend Canada if (god forbid) they are ever under attack, so we can be as fucked up we want to be and he'll be safe & sound no matter what.

    "Rooting for Putin?" That's the official talking point? :lol: Hyperbole and baseless assumptions much? :lol: Maybe some Trumpists are - but very few I would think. Are the Democrats/liberals upset & confused because conservatives in general don't think Joebama is the greatest thing since sliced bread? :weep: Get used to it kid. I think before long a lot of liberals will have buyer's remorse.

    Why don't you tell the class what characteristics of Uncle Vlady you admire most?

    No skin the game? I do a lot of business in America and my wife is American (she thinks it’s a shithole too though)

    Listen, if you can’t take some rather benign observations about how shitty your country is, maybe like a Paw Patrol message board is more up your alley :)

    Bullshit. China is exponentially a bigger threat than Russia at every level.

    You think you’re insulting me here but that’s the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me

    Honestly who would want to go and vacation in America, what a colossal waste of money and time :lol:

    Anyways maybe you could enlighten us as to why your fellow Republicans are throwing their support behind someone as shockingly terrible as Putin?
