No one voted twice for Ted K. to occupy the office of POTUS.

Irrelevant to the point being made. Whether Ted K. was POTUS or not makes no difference.

Your veiled apology for acutely emotionally disordered Trump is unreasonable.

Your made up bullshit is the only thing that is unreasonable.

Clearly most of the left here really don't care about any personal integrity as they spew the party's nonsense talking points. It's rather sad.,

Talk to President Trump about personal integrety, then you can talk to all the voters who put him in there. That conversation may be more difficult for you though.

Trump grants clemency to troops in three controversial war crimes cases

POTUS intervenes in the cases of two Army officers and a Navy SEAL.

www.militarytimes.com

November 15, 2019
"President Donald Trump on Friday granted clemency to three controversial military figures embroiled in charges of war crimes, arguing the moves will give troops “the confidence to fight” without worrying about potential legal overreach.

Army 1st Lt. Clint Lorance, convicted of second degree murder in the death of two Afghans, was given a full pardon from president for the crimes. Army Maj. Mathew Golsteyn, who faced murder charges next year for a similar crime, was also given a full pardon for those alleged offenses.

Special Warfare Operator Chief Edward Gallagher, who earlier this fall was acquitted of a string of alleged war crimes, had his rank restored to Chief Petty Officer by the president..."

This time, the beneficiaries included three corrupt former members of Congress—Reps. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.), Chris Collins (R-N.Y.), and Steve Stockman (R-Texas)—and two men, George Papadopoulos and Alex van der Zwaan, who pleaded guilty to lying to investigators as part of the Trump-Russia Scandal.

Trump also pardoned four former security contractors—Nicholas Slatten, Paul Slough, Evan Liberty, and Dustin Heard—who had been convicted for their roles in the 2007 killings of Iraqi civilians. The four men were employees of Blackwater, the company founded by Erik Prince, the brother of Trump Education Secretary Betsy DeVos. Trump also pardoned Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, former border patrol agents who were convicted in the 2005 shooting of an alleged drug smuggler.."

So, why this "stink" associated with Reagan, Bush, Casey, and Gates?

Reagan and John Shaheen were both born in Tampico, IL, Shaheen's sister was married to ABC news co-anchor, Hugh Downs, for more than 60 years. Shaheen's protege, Roy Furmark, cost Robert Gates his appointment as DCI in 1991.

Candid responses, please! are these details too complicated to respond to, or maybe just too much to wrap a fragile mind around,
or perhaps there is an attention span issue? Compare the evidence supporting an October Surprise conspiracy intended to delay release of 52 American hostages in Iran until after the 1980 presidential election and the curious relationships with the Iranian government during the Reagan Admin. with the quality of the actual evidence "Hunter Biden and his father made themselves rich..."

IOW, why do contemporary allegations against democrats, no matter how poorly supported, get unhindered posting access in any
forum section, vs well documented, prior allegations of republican "activities" get confined to this forum's CONSPIRACY THEORY "cubicle"?

I thought Biden said mother of all sanctions would fall if Russia invaded? Biden lied again and went with his minor incursion route while still calling it an invasion. Democrats have issues with word definitions.

But you forgave "the October Surprise," and Iran-Contra in a nano-second! Why did Obama keep Robert Gates on as Sec-Def after January 20, 2009? Perhaps it was because Obama had competent advisors with good memories who suggested keeping Gates on to drown in his and Bush's "shit sandwich", Afghanistan?

George Shultz's Character Study of Robert Gates

In January 1986, Shultz told Gates that he had no “confidence in the intelligence community” and that he “wouldn’t trust anything you guys said about Iran no matter what.” Shultz charged Gates with “trying to manipulate me” and accused him of trying to create an “alternate State Department with...

www.counterpunch.org

"...First and foremost, Shultz was a specialist at labor relations; .. His memoir (“Turmoil and Triumph: My Years as Secretary of State”) is particularly important and unusual because of his descriptions of his international and domestic opponents. He fully documents his bitter exchanges with Bob Gates, a Cold War opponent of detente and arms control, who doctored intelligence to support his polemical views.

.. No State Department official has ever blistered a high-ranking CIA official the way Shultz castigated acting CIA director Gates in 1986. Shultz was trying to lead President Reagan toward detente and arms control with the Soviets, and Casey and Gates did everything they could to block him. Gates believed that Gorbachev would never “change….” Shultz knew better because several of us at the CIA were getting intelligence to him that detailed the revolutionary approach of Gorbachev and his foreign minister, Eduard Shevardnadze.

In January 1986, Shultz told Gates that he had no “confidence in the intelligence community” and that he “wouldn’t trust anything you guys said about Iran no matter what.” Shultz charged Gates with “trying to manipulate me” and accused him of trying to create an “alternate State Department with its own strong policy views.” Shultz conceded that his department made mistakes, but that Gates’ “assaults are almost joyful.” Shultz’s successor at State, James Baker, had similar problems with Gates and wrote about them in his memoir, “The Politics of Diplomacy.” Then-Senator Joe Biden also clashed with Gates and voted against his confirmation in 1991. Gates has never forgotten the ones who challenged, let alone castigated, him. So Shultz didn’t make the mistake that Ronald Reagan made in nominating Bob Gates to be the director of the Central Intelligence Agency; that George H.W. Bush made in naming Gates to be CIA director; that George W. Bush made in naming Gates to be Secretary of Defense; or that Barack Obama made in keeping Gates at the Pentagon. Gates is particularly infamous for his acts of revisionism, ..."

We all know Putin won't stop and will approach a Baltic state next.

The weapons should not have been on there way. That is bullshit. All that would have done is give Putin the high ground.

What position does Trump hold that he can provide any support? Hell, he can barely leave his own resort without having issues.

He leads the republican party. Some of whom have cheered Vlad on. Trump has called him genius and savvy. Fox is promoting Vlad. Believe me, as much as you try and convince us that Trump is irrelevant, he's very much front and center.

I wish he would just fade away. That ain't happening.

Trump calls Putin 'genius' and 'savvy' for Ukraine invasion

The former president's praise for Putin comes at a perilous geopolitical moment in Europe.

www.politico.com

By JOSEPH GEDEON
02/23/2022
“..I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, ‘This is genius.’ Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine — Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful,” Trump said in a radio interview with “The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.” “He used the word ‘independent’ and ‘we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.’ You gotta say that’s pretty savvy.”

“I think nobody probably knows him better in terms of the discussions that we have or that we’re having this morning.”

“I knew that he always wanted Ukraine. I used to talk to him about it. I said, ‘You can’t do it. You’re not gonna do it.’ But I could see that he wanted it,” Trump said. “I knew Putin very well. I got along with him great. He liked me. I liked him. I mean, you know, he’s a tough cookie, got a lot of the great charm and a lot of pride. But the way he — and he loves his country, you know? He loves his country. He’s acting a little differently, I think now.”.."
