I listed the above outmaneuvering...Syria and Eastern Europe mostly. But political influence in the Middle east is just shocking. Did you hear, that Turkey is cuddling up with Russia now? Do you know how important Turkey is in that region?
He beat poor Obama down just bout everywhere. There was an world wide ass-kicking tour.

Chico I agree that the last administration wasn't successful in reigning in Putin's unchecked abuses of power, but that's the problem. How do you successfully convince a dictator to check himself without starting a major war against arguably your biggest rival? Clearly sanctions aren't enough, and now that Trump has eliminated those what do we do now? It seems Trump's answer is to buddy up to Russia and ignore whatever line they want to cross next.
