++Just so we get some things straight. The Russian Federation has a GDP of Italy or South Korea. Yet,I just got home from my Ethiopian coffee bar where I saw Rick ("Frothy Mix" Santorum acted as a Trump surrogate to explain how Putin is a better leader than Obama and how polls showing 57% of Americans believe the economy is good means that Trump's plan would work better.Even Pence,Trump's Vice President, says that it is incontestable that Putin is a better leader than Obama. Now how is losing the Ukraine but seizing Crimea and mired in a war in Syria show leadership?
++Trump's financial relationship to the Russians should cause deep concern whether Putin is antagonistic or not to the United States. Show us your tax returns.
++When we gets into the weeds we forget that the United States has over 680 bases overseas while Russia has two and that the US now spends more on defense than all of planet earth combined. It used to be more than the first 20 countries. And Trump and the House Republicans want to spend more.
++Trump's Putin relationship is very peculiar. The DNC papers were leaked to the New York Observer, which is owned by Trump's son-in-law. Ars Technica proved that Russian Intelligence was behind the whole thing. Meanwhile Julian Assange ,who has gone batty in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, forgot to publish Wikileaks finding that $20 billion had been stolen out of Syrian and deposited in Moscow. Julian tried yesterday floating then idea that Huma Abedin was trying to give Hillary Clinton for earbuds for her debate. The reaction was immediate by vigilante Internet watchers. Now Julian promises an October surprise but told Fox News Megyn Kelly he didn't have any more on Hillary.
++I'll give Trump a pass on his Larry King interview with RT ,the Russian television network. It's Larry King after all but I would criticize him for blasting American foreign policy on a Russian station.
++Trump's obsession with Putin remains bizarre. To spend so much time fixated on the man during the Matt Lauer summit is bizarre and worrisome.
