ORIGINAL: BoscoX I trust Vladamir Putin way more than Pelosi or Schumer, or any Democrat party operative. They are hideous people BoscoSanity's sig line reads: "After my election I have more flexibility." - Barack Obama, caught whispering to America's most dangerous enemy on a hot mic" Obama said that to Putin. So, according to BoscoSanity, Putin is both "America's most dangerous enemy" and more trustworthy and less "hideous" than "any Democrat party operative". The RWNJs keep making a huge deal of this, as if it excuses Trump... but when it comes down to it, it sounds like Obama is just blowing him off. He didn't say it to Putin, he said it to some nagging Russian diplomat who wanted an answer... he also said it while he was president. Not that the RWNJs care, but even during an election, the president is still the president as well as a candidate, so they are involved with more of the drama and things like being approached by Russian diplomats is common. Obama was always a little cocky and probably didn't doubt he was going to be re-elected, but he also didn't hesitate to stand up to Russia after they invaded Crimea. Trump is pandering to Russia at every turn, ignoring provocations, refusing to insult or denigrate Putin in any way despite the fact that practically everyone else is a target of his ire. It's one thing to give vague assurances to foreign powers, it's quite another to be openly, undeniably afraid of doing anything to upset them.
