What do you think this means then "President Obama is the focal point of action here, and seems to be dictating terms to Russian President Vladimir Putin. That provides an interesting contrast to the image of Trump as patronizing Putin. "Columbus journalism review.
To answer your question I can't decipher it. Honestly, the last sentence in quotation marks you provided, from the Columbus Journalism Review I assume, is nonsensical to me.
I voted for Obama the first time by the way. I've only ever not voted for a Democrat two times in my life actually. And that was only for Presidential elections. In terms of local city elections (Milwaukee) I've only ever voted for Democrats. And I was never one to ridicule Obama for not being "strong enough" against Putin. A lot of Republicans criticisms of Obama when he was in office were contradictory. On one hand they would accuse him of running the country like a king or tyrant, and later turn around and accuse him of not being involved in the running of the country at all, being lazy, vacationing, golfing, and just not caring to be active as the executive leader.
My problem with Obama in terms of his relations with Putin and Russia is simply that I think he was wrong in pursuing a hostile and supremacist policy against Russia and its remarkable leader. If feel the same way about Republicans like McCain.
OR what do you think this means "But let's be honest here. How much foreign policy experience has he had? If he gives all of his opponents names like "lyin' Ted," "little Marco," and "crooked Hillary," how is he going to negotiate with world powers? I'm thinking patronizing Putin, but I'm starting to also think that the only adjectives in Trump's vocabulary are "great" and "huge."" Odyssey and last but not least how does this dictionary definition fit into you scribble .Patronize= to treat with an apparent kindness that betrays a feeling of superiority.You people live in a fake world that you create for yourself, to justify hatred , bigotry, homophobia, chauvinism, Islamaphobia and everything else that gratifies their hunger for hatred.
I'm a fan of Tusli Gabbard and think she would make a fine President for the United States of America. So, I'm not sure who your are talking about in that last sentence of yours as you are the one who speaks hateful of President Vladimir Putin. Basically, I'm more sympathetic to the coalition of the Hezbollah, Iranian, and Syrian Arab Republic. So, I don't know how you construe "Islamaphobia" out of that. Al-Sisi of Egypt is Muslim and I think well of him. I also dislike that Gaddafi (Muslim as well) was overthrown and lynched by Al Qaida forces armed and paid by the USA (under Hillary and Obama). An African country that was thrown into hell because of that.
You know, Americans ought really take a good look in the mirror and stop talking about how Catholics "worship" the Pope. Back when I was a practicing Catholic I could still muster more criticism about Pope John Paul II (whom I regarded at the time of his death as "The Last of the Mohicans") then most Americans can muster about any President they sink their heart and soul into and look upon as some near equivalency to the Catholic's Blessed Madonna.
I have news for you, Obama and Hillary were no saints. Neither is Trump. I voted for Trump. Out of the three I think Hillary was/is the worst. Personally, and while I don't know for sure and could be wrong, I suspect she's what is termed a "charismatic psychopath." And such personality types are disproportionately drawn to the professions of politics, business, and anything to do with power. They can potentially have true affections, feelings, for their children. But for the rest of the world they learn to be good actors in front of.
Tulsi Gabbard (also a Democrat and woman) I do believe has true compassion for others, especially the downtrodden.
Tulsi Gabbard by the way thinks the United States should have a more friendly relation with Russia.
Look at the Japanese journalist. The expressions on their faces behind those smiles are like "WTF!!" :shock: LOL.
Are the Japanese patronizing Putin?
