Unsurprisingly, Putin is enjoying the tension with Europe trump has created.

Putin says Europe will ‘stand at the feet of the master’ as Trump’s tariffs alarm allies​

Russia’s Vladimir Putin warned Europe will quickly “stand at the feet of the master” after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China, provoking a global markets meltdown and alarm among European allies.

Following Trump’s decision at the weekend to impose trade duties on America’s closest trading partners, Russian President Putin said Sunday that Trump’s second administration would “restore order” in Europe.

“I assure you: Trump, with his character, with his persistence, he will restore order there quite quickly. And all of them, you will see — it will happen quickly, soon — they will all stand at the feet of the master and will wag their tails a little. Everything will fall into place,” Putin told pro-Kremlin journalist Pavel Zarubin, who presents the primetime “Moscow. Kremlin. Putin” program on the Rossiya-1 state TV channel. The comments were reported by state news agency RIA Novosti and translated by Google.
The Kremlin on Monday said it was watching on as “tensions” build between the U.S. and its allies.

“You know, there are many tensions there, so, of course, we have no desire to be associated with all this in any way or to evaluate it in any way,” Kremlin press secretary Dmitry Peskov told reporters in his daily press briefing.

Vlad knows how to play trump. Stroke his insatiable ego. What's good for Putin is bad for Europe, and us, though it may be good for Don.

<yawn> Like we care what Putin says.

<yawn> Like we care what Putin says.

Trump has long been Putin’s useful idiot.

You know what the tension is? They want someone like Trump to get the foreigners out of their countries. They want the green bullshit to stop going after their farmers. They want the crime to decrease. They want the spending to stop. They are trying to do what we just did. Instead, what they are about to get is the WEF/EU Central Bank Digital Currency. It is a nightmare that we just escaped.

Trump has long been Putin’s useful idiot.

Obviously. That's why he told NATO to spend more to defend against Putin.
That's why he warned Germany not to be energy dependent on Russia.
That's why Trump stopped the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

Now why did Biden turn around and allow the pipeline to be completed?

 

[Dragonlady]

<yawn> Like we care what Putin says.

Trump cares. Trump cares very much. Putin has been laughing at Trump and mocking him.

So? Are we supposed to run our politics on Putin's moods? I mean of all the top post titles I can think of the serve absolutely no purpose on the planet this one takes the cake. If Ted Bundy was alive I'm sure he would enjoy it too! Let's not forget Jack the ripper or Attila the Hun!

So we're supposed to wait around and see whether or not Putin is happy or sad before we make our next move? Is that correct?

German Chancellor Rebukes Vance for Supporting Party That Downplays Nazis​

Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany on Saturday accused Vice President JD Vance of unacceptably interfering in his country’s imminent elections on behalf of a party that has played down the atrocities committed by the Nazis 80 years ago.

A day after Mr. Vance stunned the Munich Security Conference by telling German leaders to drop their so-called firewall and allow the hard-right Alternative for Germany, or AfD, to enter their federal government, Mr. Scholz accused Mr. Vance of effectively violating a commitment to never again allow Germany to be led by fascists who could repeat the horrors of the Holocaust.

“A commitment to ‘never again’ is not reconcilable with support for the AfD,” Mr. Scholz said at the conference on Saturday morning, in an address opening the gathering’s second day.

Mr. Scholz said the AfD had trivialized Nazi atrocities like the concentration camp at Dachau, which Mr. Vance visited on Friday. The chancellor said Germany “would not accept” directives from outsiders about how to run its democracy — and certainly not to work with such a party.

The more turmoil Team trump creates between the US and our European allies, the more Putin grins from ear to ear. Nothing pleases Vlad like witnessing our democracy, once a beacon for the world, being shredded by an ignorant former reality TV star with a unique ability to convince rubes that breaking the government is good for them while it's actually good for him.

Yeah, AfD would be terrible!
They might actually reduce the number of fake asylum seeker plowing through crowds in Germany. Keeping "fascists" out of government is much more important than German lives.

Meh, inbred Europe has been killing each other in wars for 2,000+ years. They even came to America and tried to get uppity and we had to bitch slap them back to Europe.

When it comes bashing America liberals hang on Putin’s every word. When it comes to anything Putin says about the Ukraine, suddenly nothing Putin says can be trusted. Liberals are trash.

trump is parroting Poootin's talking points. He is a TRAITOR.

We tried to tell voters for years. Now we are a Russian ally.

So, Putin basically agrees that Trump is the leader of the World. He will also sign a cease fire with Ukraine. He knows not to mess with Trump.
