Mainstream media keeps incorrectly characterizing Trump's Putin comments

[Lester The Nightfly]

I wonder how much Trump's jibber-jabber is tied to him still being butt hurt that Zelensky wouldn't go along with being extorted that lead to Trump's first impeachment?

[MotorCityRadioFreak]

If anyone looks at the pictures from the meetings Trump had with Putin in 2019, it was very obvious that Trump was falling all over Vlad. He envied that power and fascist system.

For sake of argument I think one can, hypothetically, be savvy, smart and sinister.
I don't see how sinister inherently negates either of the other two.

I explained earlier how it does.

100% agree. Your priorities could be diametrically opposed to anyone else but can still be savvy and smart about accomplishing your goals.

Definition of savvy:

having or showing perception, comprehension, or shrewdness especially in practical matters

So yeah, you can be both at the same time.

btw - Clay and Buck as I type this are just now saying almost exactly what I said in this thread about their interview with Trump and about how the media twisted it.

Take every word that the former President has said over the last week, and put it in Hillary's mouth and then tell me how you would feel.

I'm sorry, we aren't "incorrectly characterizing" anything.

I'm not a fan of Trump, but this comment is one hell of a red herring.

[bmw]

The media routinely takes Trump's sarcasm and reports it as if Trump said and meant it. They did that throughout Trump's presidency and they're doing it now, and I think they KNOW what they're doing. That's what makes it dishonest reporting.

As to Hillary, sorry, she's not capable of Trump's sarcasm, so your whataboutism fails.

Isn't there a chunk of Russia that USED TO BE Finland?

Uh.....yeah. There USED TO BE 13 colonies too. What exactly is your point?

Kinda like confusing Iranians for Ukranians?

Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks, but he'll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people...
