Trump insinuated Putin called President Obama that " bad" name.

 

[Federberg]

I searched for that and could not find anything remotely close to reliable showing that Putin used the n word regarding B. Obama (or anyone else for that matter), let alone publicly. I only found some twitter messages stating that Trump said so. This is completely un-Putin -- say what you want about the guy, the last thing he is is stupid.

I would appreciate if you could provide some evidence of that, but right now I bet it is just an urban legend.

By the way, welcome to the boards.

I’ve heard the same thing as well it had nothing to do with Trump. He didn’t say it publicly, I find it hilarious that you think he might have

The post which I replied to stated that he said it openly -- which I reworded as publicly -- that is why I added the "let alone publicly".

fair enough My understanding was that Putin and his close associates never made their contempt for a black president much of a secret. While he didn't say it publicly or to his face, it's not hard to believe that he would have been quite comfortable with his officials recounting private conversations verbatim. That in itself would have been a fairly effective message to Americans

 

[Federberg]

by the way, it's clear from the Congressional presentation made by the Administration yesterday that there was no imminent threat. The assassination was in contravention of international law. But then again... we all knew this.

As Broken pointed out, one man's terrorism is another man's self defence. All very sad. It sounds as if Trump in his seemingly drug addled speech yesterday implied that he would be happy to force the Iranians back to the negotiation table. The man is a sociopath. He pulls out of the nuclear agreement so that he can get his own version. Just like NAFTA 2.0. How utterly pathetic. What next? Pull out of NATO so he can get his own NATO 2.0? I'm starting to think the Iranians will join the Chinese and Russians In trying to ensure he wins a 2nd term. They couldn't sabotage the preeminence of the United States more effectively than he's doing

Cali, you fucking moron, did my post mention Trump once? Or are you so hellbent on shoving his dick inside your throat that you manage to bring him up when I'm talking about how every fucking American president since the turn of the 20th century is a genocidal war lord but Americans are too lacking in self-awareness to notice it?

When Americans talk about terrorism and death of innocents, do they realize their country has caused more of that (in areas in which the US should have nothing to do with) than any other country in modern history? When people like Moxie champion Barrack fucking Obama, do they bother to think for a second about the poor Middle Eastern kids that were left fatherless, the wives that were widowed, the kids that were orphaned, the parents that lost their children because of him? Or is the murder of innocents second rate if you're charismatic and charming?

That American presidents are psychopathic murderers has become so normalized that it no longer factors in in the way in which they're assessed, and that is fucking ludicrous.

EVERYTHING Suleimani is accused of, the US has done far worse. That's a fact. And that is the hypocrisy of the United States of America.

Did I ever say that Obama was a saint or that he didn't pursue policies I didn't agree with? i agree with a lot of your post, TBH. But you're treading on Cali territory by dragging me in, unbidden, and inferring my beliefs. I don't even participate on this thread that often. I'd appreciate it if you'd both stop treating me like a football.

Thanks for proving my point perfectly. Imagine labeling a mass murderer as "not a saint." US presidents having a free pass for killing innocents has been so normalized that drone strikes who took hundreds (thousands?) of innocent lives including women and children get you the "not a saint" treatment rather than "reprehensible human being" treatment.

So yet again investigations by the Justice Department into HRC's involvement with Uranium One and the Clinton Foundation have been closed, with nothing to show for it. Could it be that it was all bullshit and used to smear her? Hmmm.... maybe! And yet the clearly stupid lies and innuendo will continue

I find it hilarious that the overrated NYT who published various front page articles about this buried this vindication in some back pages. Great job NYT!

Just because you don't like him, he's hardly a "lump." And yes, Novak is talented with languages, but let's not pretend that a few phrases in Chinese makes him fluent, ok?

I wish you held the tens of thousands of pretentious Democrats (starting most of all with Obama and Hillary) to the same standard. Speaking of Obama - if I may use your words - "let's not pretend that a few phrases in (fill in foreign language during a speech) makes him fluent, ok?"

Speaking of which: did you enjoy Trump's tweets in Farsi over the weekend? Apparently Iranians did (over 200,000 likes):

No, only a brainwashed dumbass like you could take a Justice Department report seriously in light of all the findings about FISA abuse and how the Justice Department covered for the FBI. Read my post summarizing Schweizer's findings on a different thread:

The history of the underreported and underdiscussed Uranium One deal.....

I am going to ahead and post these two lists (Parts I and II) for the likes of Broken, Moxie, and Federberg, since Broken and Moxie are brainwashed by the narrow view of the (American) New York Times and Federberg is brainwashed by the dull-witted eunuchs at the BBC. A few months ago I went...

There is a reason Hillary destroyed 13 cell phones and deleted 30,000 emails.

The reason that the Clinton Foundation has not been prosecuted is that most people working in the federal government are Democrats who hate Trump. But you are too clueless to know that.

 

[calitennis127]

So, yet again, Federburg was proven wrong. This time about Soleimani. Now we have Iranians protesting against Soleimani, ripping down his posters and burning them.

How many times can Federburg be proven wrong before he re-evaulates his basic assumptions and which media he believes?


"Angry Iranians clash with police, burn Soleimani posters to protest downed plane"
Videos show men with guns on the streets, bleeding demonstrators on sidewalks, police in riot gear beating people and dissidents ripping down and defacing posters of slain general

Yeah sure. No imminent threat according to Democrats who were openly expressing hope on Twitter that Trump would have his own Benghazi debacle in Baghdad. Absolutely, Federburg. Absolutely.

Is there anything Democratic Party hacks can say that you won't believe? Just a single time?

 

[calitennis127]

Lol at all the squabbling over Flynn when the sitting US President has just pulled off one of the biggest clusterfuck moves in recent history. (sorry @Moxie, I'll get my coat).

You spoke way too soon Britbox. Looks like Trump is more popular in Iran now than Soleimani was, let alone Obama:

Lol.....you really could not be more clueless or misinformed. Would a country that has no respect for Trump do this? Did they ever do this when Obama was president?

Seeing as Twitter is blocked in Iran, its probable that exiles who have a beef with the government are the ones liking it.

A) Twitter isn't available in Iran.

B) Read your own source. It doesn't say "the most liked tweet in Iran." It says the most liked Persian tweet. Meaning anyone could have liked the tweet, irrespetive of where they live or what their nationality is.

In other words, any Trump supporter could have liked the Tweet and it counts among the total tally. So really to go based on that and make the claim you are making is insane. That said, Suleimani isn't entirely well liked in Iran, neither is the Irani regime, but that's common knowledge around these parts.
