Hope not.
Bill, I really appreciate the fact that we can and often do get into spirited arguments, without it getting weird.

She didn't start anything in this thread. You came in and started calling everyone who is suspicious of Trump crazy and irrational and started telling Androbot that she needs mental help. If you really can't see how you've instigated tension in this thread and made things personally insulting unnecessarily I don't know if you can be reasoned with because you lack the self awareness to be able to gauge your own behaviour honestly. It's either that or you are being dishonest and are intentionally trolling. It's hard to tell (then again, that's probably to be expected on a forum full of autistic people--sometimes we are going to find ourselves unaware of how our behaviour is effecting others.) The only person who has ever called me a bully is you Ezra, so you may want to check your "documentation." And for Heaven's sake, can you not just move on already, you are starting to creep me out.

How and why would we have to give up every "strategic interest" we have to get it done? What are you referring to?
I think the US government kills people too, the Clinton's have a longer list of associates that have turned up dead than Putin. I think it's silly to pretend like we don't do the same things, Russia and the US seem like two peas in a pod. As for trusting Putin, what are you worried about? What do you think he's going to do? Lets not act like there isn't an 'intelligence state' in the US either, I see no reason not to accept their extending of the olive branch and consider a great opportunity to forge a bond between our two countries.
It doesn't matter if our relationship benefits Russia more because the US and its allies will benefit plenty, it benefiting Russia more gives the US leverage and possibly dependency. I think they can be an equal partner in this War on Terror, somebody that actually carries their own weight unlike our sad sack friends who refuse to spend to a measly 2% on defense and refuse to partake in any combat missions might actually help us win this thing. If we have no intention of winning then we should completely withdraw our forces and disengage.
I've been saying this stuff for years now which you can look up on this site, long before Trump was a candidate. I've said this plenty of times but it was in fact Trump's nuanced position on Russia that initially sold me on his candidacy.

Yes and the Russians have also been planting pro-Russian propaganda certain websites since 2012, I don't doubt you've been saying it for a long time, the Russians have been grooming you for a long time.
Ah so if one doesn't see the problems with Russia the way that they're supposedly supposed to, that means they have been brainwashed by the Russians.
