I have some questions.
1. Why exactly would Putin prefer Trump over Hillary?
Is it because he thinks Trump is more of an isolationist, which in turn allows Putin to run the gamut in the Middle East and the Balkans?
2. Who set off the chemical weapons in Syria this week?
I've always thought that Assad (as evil as he may be) is the voice of reason here, simply because he is a secular dictator. He is fighting a rebellion of Islamic groups that want what other countries gained during the Arab spring -what that is I have no idea. The problem with this argument or thinking is that Assad is backed by Russia and Iran. Iran wants to be recognized, it wants to influence other Muslim nations, it wants nuclear capabilities, and eventually they just want to destroy Israel.
BTW Rex Tillerson just accused Assad of using the chem weapons. Who exactly is getting attacked with chemical weapons as in what city in Syria? What group of civilians? Are these Assad voters? Are they neighborhoods backing the rebels? The media outlets are calling it an attack by Assad. What a Charlie Foxtrot!- 1. Trump is more economically nationalist rather than militarily isolationist. Many times in his campaign wanting to increase size of military...IRNlun6

- I just don't buy that Putin would favor Trump over Hillary. Putin has said it, but I'm doubtful since he's former KGB and well seasoned politically.IRNlun6
- Trump is preferred because Putin basically owns trumpmoldero
- I've also read some say Trump was favored because of allege dirt that Putin had, which could be used as leverage against him.IRNlun6
- Putin likely has way more dirt on Hillary than Trump. After nearly a year of accusations, investigations, and espionage no one has found anything incriminating.IRNlun6
