Preaching to the choir. I've been speaking out, protesting, canvassing against trump for ten years. Only for friend circles and some family disown me.

I've been doing stuff about it for years

It's all russia this and russia that. You choose him twice democraticly. Take responsibility for your actions. Did Iraqis do anything to you? No. You wreck their country. Even 9/11 wasn't afghans fault and wrecked their too. By the way, he was in Pakistan , and to this day, you send them military aid. We Iranian forced the regime to make a deal. You guys broke that deal, and now you want to attack us over it? Who in the right mind would make a deal with donald "you don't have the cards" trump and those big babies he surrounded himself with?

Huh? I'm saying it benefits Russia. That is the reality.

Ain't nowhere have I stated that the US isn't doing this. Nowhere have insinuated trump and Republicans aren't behind this. I specifically say they are doing it.

Democrats are not in power and tried to impeach him twice his first term which would bar him from being president again.

I don't think anyone should have been making deals with trump for decades. So what do you think I was implying?

Implaying that Russians put him on seat of power. I might have brought some other guy statements as yours. I anycase the sickness that rotting the whole system is internal first. Russia is trying to do what it does.

It is your country, and i have no right to criticize you, but i must ask you a question. Isn't it too soon for judging his policies? I mean, his plans might work. The US has everything. Why should you share it with Europeans? Is your criticism based on morality of it? Or just based on historical facts that seem to be repeating or your own interests?

I don't like the guy, but that's not the basis for criticism. I certainly criticize stupid policies of my government but not just because it don't like them( which i don't).
