    He's 66 years old with five-plus years left in his term. He loves his country. Find someone good who won't Yeltsinize it.

    What I read here:

    Trump ruined a seven-year-old's Christmas.
    Trump didn't go to Church for Christmas/Christmas Eve.
    Trump was alone, and abandoned by his family on Christmas.
    Trump didn't visit the troops on Christmas.

    None of it was right.

    Great job guys!

    Barbara Bush, Laura Bush, and Melania Trump all visited troops in war zones.

    Michelle Obama never did.

    Why does Michelle Obama hate our troops?

    I think that while Russian's feel a sense of pride over becoming a world power (I have worked in Russia so I have a little knowledge of the situation) Russia has economic problems. Much of the economic progress that Russia made under Putin was due to the rise in commodity prices and the country finally adjusting to the new economic system (and the conversion was a bitch). I think that Putin has taken the Russian economy about as far as he is going to. If the standard of living of the Russian people is going to rise I think the Russians need to move past Putin.

    I don't understand how Putin intervening in Syria or increasing the defense budget helps in increasing the standard of living of the Russian people. You can argue that the Unite States does the same things. OK. But that is a different argument for a different country. But the Russian people do not enjoy a very high standard of living.

    And how many Russian branded products other than Vodka sell on the world market.

    Fake news! Clearly taken at Andrews Air Force Base near DC. Fake president! Q is working with Robert Mueller to take down Trump. Leadership must change!

    Their defense budget increases are minuscule, as in $18 billion over SEVEN YEARS.

    The country is sitting on $70 trillion in natural resources, double that of the next-highest country. So the potential is there. And don't forget, global warming will make them the breadbasket of the world in a few years.

    And finally, I wish --- and I'm certain the Russian citizens wish --- Putin could concentrate all his efforts on domestic issues, making life better for his people. But, ahem, with NATO crawling up your ass and Western-led coups on your borders . . .

    Well if Trump DID visit the troops then clearly all the Russian stuff is bogus too.
