Steemit, do you care that Trump is refusing to enact Russian sanctions?

in #news7 years ago


The Trump administration is refusing to implement additional sanctions on Russia passed by Congress on the basis that its passage alone acts as a "deterrent" against the Kremlin. Do you care? What do you think this means?

Sanctions have never worked, like neva eva worked. Russia also doesnt care much about these sanctions...

Upvote if you don't care what Trump think or says.

I think this is big news. Trump is Putins mini-me. He is devoted to him and doesn't CARE about America. That law was PASSED with overwhelming support and Trump just defied Congress and REFUSED to comply with the law as written. That is un-acceptable

Yes, by refusing to address the problem it ensures that in 2018 we will have the same election issues again. There is no progress when we make no forward motion. Trump doesn't have a good hand to play at this point. I realize that every time he addresses the Russia issue it only will look bad. But he claimed to be a strong leader. Why isn't he willing to take a strong position when America's elections were attacked? I think that's because he is actually not a strong leader but more of a wealthy follower.

Agreed, that will be a major problem

I could give a flying "F" about the Russia nonsense, it's all just cold-war b.s. and media circus party, meaningless

question is
will US sanctions really work?

Probably not, because Team Trump is still colluding with them.

I don't think sanctions will have any effect. So, while I am no Trump fan, I am pretty much meh on this topic.

if these two superpowers can keep each other, there may be a little more hope for the inhabitants of the earth, that the earth we live in is safe from war.

Failing to enforce the law - sounds like impeachment material to me!

I'm glad he's not implementing new sanctions based on nothing. It's not like the Russians were doing anything new they weren't already being sanctioned for. This was nothing but an attempt by congress to sell the fake "Russian collusion" story.
