Putin probably considers him a useful idiot. Trump probably considers him some kind of friend. Either way, the Putin-Trump relationship will cause Putin to be smart about retaliation.

i dont see any evidence of this
all trump has said was neutral statements, and that putin is a strong leader. which he is, its not really up for debate. and that we should fight WITH the russians in the middle east. again, just another fact
so just because he isnt with this pseudo-cold war bullshyt doesnt make him 'friends' with putin. does anyone have any evidence of this? because im happy to admit that im wrong, but i guess ive missed it. and as i stated above, i dont really care. russia never did anything to negatively affect my life
Can you geniuses read? I didn't say low oil doesn't hurt Russia. I said low oil doesn't just hurt Russia.
Sustained low oil is destabilizing. It hurts Russia. It hurts Saudi Arabia. It hurts the rest of OPEC countries, some to the point of catastrophe like Venezuela. It hurts US oil drillers, which has a domino effect. Countless people out of work. Investors fukked. Bank balance sheets imploding.

All I said was 'probably'. Trump just comes off as someone that think he has a better relationship with someone than he really does.

Can we see some evidence that Russia actually hacked the U.S.? I'm tired of being told this over and over again without any evidence.
Doesn't really hurt Saudi Arabia, they're one of the main ones driving oil prices lower. They have some of the highest profit per barrel which varies for every country and company depending on the quality. In a place like Canada in the Tar Sands (Where I am right now), To extract the WTI crude itself is very expensive, so a dip below 40$ earlier this year cost thousands of jobs because it could cost almost that much to extract a single barrel of oil, where as it could cost a couple dollars in Saudi Arabia.

There's a similarity btwn this and Iraq wmds, I guess. But at least with Iraq it went to Congress and forced the administration to lie to the world..
So where is the proof Russia hacked anything, besides word of mouth?? We've already seen this siit show and it was mainly liberals complaining in 2003...now that a liberal is in office, the liberals want to trust but not verify. Very hypocritical and full of shiit stance. BHO said a document showing evidence of Russia hacking is coming out in January 2017...I guess we'll wait for the details
In this case no one is disputing whether or not hacking accorded. This isnt the first time a country has accused Russia of hacking their government. Russia is also harboring someone the US has charged with espionage, who also likes to leak US secrets.
Why shouldn't this be investigated?
fukk a friend sooner or later he has to answer to his handlers because those sanctions are fukking their pockets up
