NOW we have a problem with Vladimir Putin......

Vladimir Putin has never had a warm and cozy relationship
with the United States but it was only the rare occasions he
took provocative steps against the desires of our country
that aroused concern, which he did almost as soon as Barack
Obama took office by attacking Crimea in the Ukraine.

But, since last year the angst many have towards Putin has
risen to the point that President Trump, is being asked about
him, even suggesting he label him a killer.

Its interesting less than thirty days into the office President
Trump is being challenged to criticize Putin after eight years
former President Obama was never urged to publicly criticize
the Russian president or Russia's role in the Middle East.

But, this is what we can expect from a politically biased media
towards President Trump.

If you wonder "why now", consider the state of the Democrat
Party and its cheerleaders portraying themselves as journalists
equally disappointed Hillary Clinton is not our president.

Think back to when we learned the Democrat Party was working
with the Hillary Clinton campaign to 'lock in'  the nomination.

The immediate response was an attack on the source of this news,
a deliberate misdirection to avoid embarrassment; blame Russia
for hacking emails between these two parties.

The compliant media had no problem with what was learned
or any interest in what the Democrats and Clinton were doing;
its interest was solely on how the emails became known even
though the source denies Putin was involved. (Nixon should
have been this lucky when his tapes were learned of)

This does not matter when the political axe was already sharpened
to "chop down" the Trump presidency before it even started,
with the assertion Putin rigged the election, meant to undermine
Trump's legitimacy.

What is most disturbing is that to protect whatever degree of
'purity' remains in Democrat party politics they now weaken
the important relationship with the only other country capable
enough to join the United States in destroying worldwide
terrorism and stabilize the Middle East.

All of a sudden Russia and Vladimir Putin are a problem that
requires Congressional hearings,  all of a sudden a nominee
to Trump's cabinet is asked at call Putin a "war criminal", all
of a sudden the president is told during an interview that "Putin
is a killer".

This is where we are. From all sides President Trump is being
dragged into a place that will make it very difficult to have
a relationship with Russia that will be cooperative.

President Trump refuses to take the 'bait', and even placed
a 'mirror' on our own country's role in destabilizing many
Arab states.

Both Trump and Putin see what is going on, both men appear
to respect one another, and remain focused on how they can
be constructive partners in stabilizing the Middle East.
