Hence my putting “debated” in quotes. It is not debatable that you have no evidence to support your claims, as I have pointed out. All you do is troll.

In other words, Putin doesn't own Trump.

I'm not "you guys" because I don't believe Putin literally owns Trump, only that Trump favors and admires Putin. My answer was in the context of whether or not Putin owns Trump, or Trump favors and admires Putin, or Trump kicks out 60 diplomats, Putin has chosen the path he is on regardless of such.

Spoken by the person who posted no facts to debate, just opinions. Opinions are a dime a dozen. Everyone's got them.

Finally, we agree that Putin is going to do what he wants and that the left's rabidness in thinking that kicking out some Russians is going to stop them from interfering in other's elections. We need to concentrate on actually stopping the Russians from interfering in our elections instead of stupidly kicking out a few people and thinking that that will change their behavior when it won't.

“Finally, we agree that Putin is going to do what he wants and that the left's rabidness…”

I did not agree with you saying “the left’s rabidness.” That’s another one of your false statements that you have no evidence of.

“We need to concentrate on actually stopping the Russians from interfering in our elections instead of stupidly kicking out a few people and thinking that that will change their behavior when it won't.”

If by “a few people” you mean the 60 diplomats, I remind you that your saying so is in the wrong context. Again, they were not kicked out because of Russian election interference. I agree with what you otherwise say. Still, kicking out those diplomats was the right thing to do for the reason the US and other countries gave.

Again, you make a false statement. I refuted your claim “Obama utterly failed to do anything about Russian meddling at the time it was going on.” by giving facts that proved you wrong. You could not disprove those facts which refuted your claim because you couldn’t provide any evidence of such, despite being asked to do so. All I’m doing is repeating that your claim has been refuted for lack of evidence and you can’t prove wrong the evidence I’ve provided to refute your claim. Consider this matter over as all that is going on here is giving you time to troll.

Yes, let's antagonize Russia all we can. Funny how the left doesn't want Trump to antagonize Rocket Man but they're perfectly willing to start WWIII with Russia.

Obama didn't do anything to stop Russia from influencing our elections at the time it was going on. In fact, he specifically told his people to stand down. Obama waited until Hillary lost then all of a sudden he wants to do something. If Hillary had won Obama wouldn't have done anything.

What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. The burden of proof in a debate lies with the claim- maker and if he or she does not meet it then the opponent does not need to argue against the unfounded claim. I need not argue any further with you and your trolling as it has been established that you have not disproved the facts of my refuting your claim.

It surprises me none we are in the fix we are in now.

I am more inclined to believe that it is because we pay more attention to politics and already come with bias on-board most of the time. If you look at a lot of UK's newspapers websites, they are heavy into television and entertainment as news.

You're just being dishonest. These are from your very own partisan rags:

No. You fail to comprehend yourself. Your claim used the term “not anything”, which is an absolute. Any single thing done, just one thing, would refute that claim. Pointing out the “stand down” does not refute the fact of what I posted that was proof did do more than “not anything.”

Your claim of “dishonesty” is a perverse accusation based on your own bad judgement. I’ve made enough honest effort to edify this matter and am moving on.
