Yeah Obama sent that well when he set a red line in Syria then did nothing. Everyone understood the silence. When Putin invaded Crimea, Obama once again sat silence. I am missing the part where it is supposed to be powerful. When it came to sowing racial division, Obama was all talk on that. He loved it and felt empowered. He was a disgrace. Lets stop revising history and pretending he wasn't.
It's better to underreact than to overreact. You think Trump would've done anything when Russia invaded Crimea? He would've said "I put America number 1" and that is that, nothing else. Or you think he would've gone to war with Russia near their border? You're naive beyond belief if you think that. The racial division stuff is an internal matter and it's the only area where the right wing has some good points to make. But the truth is somewhere between the left and the right.
Its better to have a cohesive strategy. I have no evidence that Obama ever had one. He referred to Russia as a regional power and ISIS as the JV team. His foreign policies were disasters, his domestic policies were not much better. I know the left wing position is to say Trump is dumb, how did that work out in 2016? The opposing side should not understand your strategy, until it is too late.
These pictures say thousands and thousands of words. Body Language & Emotional Intelligence The Majority of All In-Person Communication & Visual Media is Nonverbal... How Much are You Missing? Analysis, Secrets, and Advice from an Expert for the Real-World This image (and the cropped close-ups below) show Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin just prior to beginning their joint press conference during last week's Helsinki Summit. It is only an instant in time - but from a nonverbal perspective, it's very telling (see below for other, more comprehensive analyses of this same presser). Look at the overall posture of each man. Putin's spine is upright - perpendicular to the floor with his shoulders relaxed and squared. Holding notes, his hands and arms are flexed with mild activity. His body looks relaxed, ready, and confident. President Trump is in the midst of stepping - so this is not entirely an apples-to-apples comparison - however, his shoulders are hunched with his torso leaning forward - while his neck is also foreshortened. This makes him look weak - like he doesn't really want to be there. His arms should not be resting at his sides in this moment - for it gives him the appearance of an enlisted man, standing at attention (or a subordinate facing reprimand). Trump also forgot to button his suit-jacket (or prefers it). In this setting, such casualness elevates President Putin (making him look athletic, classy, and assertive) and diminishes President Trump. It also accentuates their age difference (the Russian is 65 and the American is 72). Putin's posture projects health, vigor, and dominance - while Trump's configuration conveys a tired, stressed, and submissive emotional tone. Putin's posture projects health, vigor, and dominance - while Trump's configuration conveys a tired, stressed, and submissive emotional tone. SUMMARY: Trump's nonverbal behavior in this pre-presser moment is worried, tired, and subservient - while Putin is confident, relaxed, and dominant. Vladimir Putin looks like he wrote the script - while Donald Trump looks worried, shell-shocked, acquiescing - as if he's trying to remember his lines.
Lets see what President Trump does. Ukraine says Russia has seized 3 of its navy's ships after firing on them near Crimea https://abcnews.go.com/International/ukraine-russia-seized-warships-firing-crimea/story?id=59406620
Yes, let's pretend Trump and company are strategic masterminds and weren't helped by the need of general public in US wanting drama in politics. When you don't know what you're doing, it's best NOT to make a decision. Only imbeciles make decisions without solid basis. Trump's foreign policy of "don't trust me, what I say or what I do, you're all my enemies" will surely end well...
AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OH HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOH EH HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE
These pictures really tell the story. Trump really looks like an old man and not in the sense of wisdom and experience.
