THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY

[HairOfTheDog]

Putin announced several new nuclear weapons systems designed to attack America and the prez is tweeting about Alec Baldwin. This comes within days of Mike Rogers, the NSA director, saying he hasn't been authorized to hit back at Russia for meddling in our election/s.

Jesus Christ

I was actually very surprised that no official response was given to Putin's very public nuclear superiority statements and implicit warning to the U.S. and other countries.

I shouldn't have been surprised considering the lack of acknowledgment and condemnation from the President regarding Russia's covert and overt actions against the U.S.

While Putin seems to be succeeding in recreating the Soviet Cold War days......the real war is the cyber war and Putin is winning, in my opinion. Russia's offensive strikes in the 2016 elections may not have been terribly sophisticated, but they were brazen and effective.

I keep waiting for some strong defensive action and punitive response from our President and hoping it's going down behind the scenes. But, that's likely just wishful thinking on my part.
