Senator Paul defends Trump's meeting with Putin, citing historic precedent and diplomatic necessity.

It shocks me that anyone would object to making an attempt to improve relations between two countries who possess 90% of the world's nuclear weapons, weapons that are on hair-trigger alert.

Even a minuscule increase in the probability of war between the USA and Russia is unconscionable. We should be taking whatever steps we can to reduce and mitigate that risk given the catastrophic consequences of such.

Unfortunately, some people seem more concerned with partisan gain than with promoting peace. It is especially troubling to see "liberals" jumping on the bellicose bandwagon. Liberals are supposed to be the ones calling for diplomacy and dialog. Instead, they more resemble the ghost of Joseph McCarthy.

Pretty obvious Trump stands for peace and the opposition stands for war.

This can be proven by the past statements of Dem. Senator John McCain (well, he sure the hell isn't a conservative). That little pipsqueak always wants to go to war.

Brennan no longer holds a position in our government. I do believe Brennan should die at the end of a rope following his indictment, trial, and conviction. We cannot allow coup plotters to live.

Right, all those Veterans that support Trump are cowards. All those brave men and women who left parts of themselves on foreign soil are cowards.

Why don't you go to Arlington National Cemetery and take a sh*t on some of the graves while you're at it?

My late father in law was a Marine vet from WW2. He was wounded in the shoulder by a Japanese sniper . His last car was a Toyota. I think he forgave the Japanese and no longer saw them as the enemy. I am a Vietnam veteran but no longer consider Ho Chi Minh the enemy, in fact I have several shirts in my closet made in Vietnam. The Cold War is over, we have more to fear from Little Rocket Man and ISIS these days then the Russians. Why would you want to start the Cold War again?

Let me ask you a serious question. When you were "serving your country" in the military did you spend a lot of time on KP or Mess Cook duties?

The left clings to anything Russia in the hopes it will Tarnish Trump, facts and truth doesnt matter nor common sense

They wring their hands over great relations with Iran because they are "Building Nukes, the want good relations with Nkorea who has nukes, yet russia that most likely has the most nukes in the world stashed they dont want good relations.

You stated all Trump supporters are cowards. I merely stated that some Veterans who left body parts on foreign soil support Trump. Then suggested that since you have such a low opinion of those who served and support Trump that perhaps you should go to Arlington and shit on the graves.

I wasn't speaking for the military dead, I was just pointing out that those Trump supporters who lost body parts on foreign soil are not the cowards you allege them to be.

No thanks are necessary since I was more than happy to clarify that for you.

All it takes is the government seal of approval and all these dumb fucks eat all this shit up. Opposing the FBI or any other government agencies isn't treason. They need to prove evidence of their assertions. They aren't God, their word alone isn't gospel. And for all of Trumps faults, at least he's trying to improve relations with the world's second biggest power instead of trying to stir shit up like the establishment and their cronies are.

In other words, an indictment isn't a conviction.
