Trump Called Putin to Congratulate Putin on the Reelection Win

Seems this has upset people quite a bit that Trump called Putin to congratulate him on winning a reelection. Trump is seen as a puppet and Russian shill. And calling Putin to congratulate him on the reelection is seen as proof of that.

What did Obama do in 2012 when Putin won?

"President Obama called Russian President-elect and Prime Minister Putin to congratulate him on his recent victory in the Russian Presidential election..."

Oh...ummm....

Well, this is awkward. hmmm

Who cares, it's just standard political practice for the most part. Thought congratulating Putin on his win is overall silly regardless of who is doing it, like there was a scenario where he wouldn't win that rigged race.

IOW: it was okay when Obama did it, but not okay when Trump does.

Go on bro, give us your shitty explanation as to why.

And to be clear: Russia's recent activity is no excuse. It's not like they haven't been trying to pull similar stuff for a long time, so that as an excuse is gone. Just wanted to nip that in the butt.

I can all but guarantee he'll whine and say it's different because of what Russia did recently. Guarantee it.

And the excuse won't fly, but it will be used nonetheless.

So when Putin invaded Crimea, and won re election in 2012, Obama called him and congratulate him, whats the difference?

How did they attack our democracy? With internet trolls? Bro you are an internet troll. Should we call the CIA? You sit on here all day lying and manipulating people.

Yet again you continue this pattern of downplaying Russia’s full-scale attack on our democracy. There’s no more friendly diplomacy, those days are gone.

Lol kiddo, that WAS the excuse you were gonna use, wasn't it? Lol, called it.

But sorry no, this is just more leftist hypocrisy.

Hes an unwitting puppet doing Putins bidding, whatever Russia did, unwitting progressives puppets have done more damage in the aftermath then anything they did.

Trump was probably already on the phone with him for their nightly phone sex session.

Churchill should’ve wished Hitler a happy birthday right? Maybe the Persians could’ve just congratulated Alexander on his road victories :facepalm:

Dude you are doing Putins bidding right now, hows it feel?
