TV is on in the background so I have no idea where it came from. Could have read it here on DU. May have misunderstood.
I agree with the names you came up with.

(2,857 posts)That she was down for being friendly with Russia. Maybe I misunderstood but it sounded like she was laying the groundwork for that. Lifting sanctions could be close if so.

Thanks for clearing that up.

(11,936 posts)...in the FBI and CIA are definitely NOT working for Russia and they are making it known to the media.
Also, the military brass isn't down with his bullshit either. They look at him and see a poseur who thinks he is on par with them.
Even though there were disagreements with Obama and his military brass, they never looked at him like that because he never tried to portray himself the way Trump has in terms of military knowledge. Obama listened to these guys. He treated them with respect. He didn't go around and act like he knew more than they did when it comes to fighting terrorist forces in other countries. And he NEVER put the blame on them for any operations gone wrong. Obama always maintained that full responsibility goes on him, whether the outcome was good or bad, as far as terrorism / middle east conflicts / finishing off the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Obama showed respect and listened to our various national security institutions and they respected him in turn. He also was clean as a fucking whistle, really. Trump on the other hand, has put himself in a world of hurt by pissing off the people that can find out everything about you and fuck you up with it, if they want to. And he has a tower full of skeletons.
