No official readout was Taken and then 12000 troops were ordered to leave europe in 2020 Just before the election




Seems Putin started moving Troops once Trump lost.. another coincidence?? since March experts say they are witnessing something new. Russia has started sending thousands of troops, tanks, artillery and other units to Crimea and regions along its 1,200-mile land border with Ukraine, yet weak Biden Freezes Trump’s Withdrawal of 12,000 Troops From Germany Feb. 4, 2021

"Trump did Just what Putin wanted"

The left desperately wanted to paint Trump as soft on Russia. While he obviously has a soft spot for Putin, here's what Trump did with Russian policy...

1) Bombed Syria, Russia's main client, and unleashed the U.S. military in Syria, including against Russians; 2) Armed Ukraine; 3) Weakened the Iran nuclear deal, and would likely soon end it [which Trump later did]; 4) Browbeat NATO allies to increase defense spending; 5) Approved $130 billion in new defense spending; 6) Added low-yield nukes to the U.S. arsenal; 7) Started research and development on a new missile after Russia deployed a missile that did not comply with the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty; 8) Shut down Russia's consulate in San Francisco; and 9) Pumped more U.S. oil and gas, making the U.S. more energy independent.

The left repeats "Trump is a Russian puppet" often enough, that many, like you, will assume it's true, nodding like livestock when you hear it.

The facts are pretty different. He was tough on Russia.

NATO was created to defend against the Soviet Union, which no longer exists. Today's Russia, isn't yesterdays USSR, not by a long shot.

Sorry to demolish a good, liberal, anti Trump rant with facts.
You go ahead and tell me which of those things, Trump didn't do.

You can fill the oceans with Trump's faults. Being soft on Russia, ain't one of them. It says nothing to you that Putin is getting so aggressive now? With Pudding Brain in the White House?
