Ain’t nobody gonna talk to Russia like that mock up post you made. Can’t be friends when your being threatened. Russia is fighting for survival. Been pushed into a corner for decades and is punching out. Threatening them at this point just ruins what decent negotiations we’ve had. Russia understands America’s position. We’re both fighting a deepstate. Putin has called this out publicly. And Russia has been very public to warning those who get in the way of their survival and safety of their people. America and Russia want the same things. We just got some trash to get rid of first.
This makes sense to me. I think Trump respects Putin, and I think Putin respects Trump. They are two grownups amongst a world full of toddlers throwing tantrums. Given how this went down, I do think MAGA_Patriot is right that Trump and Putin had some sort of agreement before things went into motion, but I can't buy that Trump basically threatened Russia's existence to get cooperation when that is literally the only reason they made a move in the first place. You don't attack a cornered bear... unless you want to be lunch.
My comment slid from serious to trying to be witty about Trump supposedly telling Putin he would take the beautiful domes off his head (attacking Moscow) if he ever invaded Ukraine. It was a supposed threat that Putin said he never heard, and Foreign Minister Lavrov considered to be "just a figure of speech" while campaigning for president.

I agree with you u/Cyberhawk, u/marvinthehaggler, and u/HereComesTrouble that POTUS would not talk to Putin like that.

I agree we've been on the same side for some time against the powers of evil in high places.
