Published 1 min ago on September 3, 2020By Matthew Chapman
On Thursday, The Washington Post reported that Democratic senators are calling on President Donald Trump to impose a new round of sanctions on Russia following reports of a new scheme to undermine the 2020 presidential election.
Congress has mandated a broad range of sanctions tools, and it is long past time for the administration to send a direct message to President [Vladimir] Putin: the U.S. will respond immediately and forcefully to continuing election interference, said the letter, written by Sens. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Ron Wyden (D-OR).

Felony or not, Trumpy-Boy is filling in the role of Russian Agent with uncanny perfection. There is NOTHING that he'll do to offend his mentor, Vlad Putin. If he does, Vlad will take him to the woodshed and "whip him like a dog." Trump is Putin's servant.

He said he "didn't know why he wouldn't accept foreign interference" if it was offered.
An amoral creature if there ever was one.

How can we issue strong sanctions against Russia that do absolutely nothing but sound tough. Asking for Vlad.
