When Trump was in power he had sanctions on Russia's pipeline and gave arms to Ukraine, which was a reverse of the Obama/Biden position. However, he had a working and cordial relationship with Putin.

When Biden came in, he stopped those sanctions but simultaneously kept up a damaging and stupid series of paper tiger insults at Putin ruining any possible influence.

In terms of deterring Putin it made zero difference as Putin can smell the weakness behind the rhetoric and knows that the economic sanctions will also hit us....and all over a border dispute that few westerners care about.

In power Trump criticised Germany's 70 percent reliance upon Russia's gas as bad policy. For this he was criticised by Biden and the Democrats.

In power Trump expanded the US's energy production, whereas the day Biden came in he cancelled the US pipeline and much production and jobs reversing Trump's march towards energy independence....embarrassingly Biden then had to beg the Saudis to increase production.

When Trump was in power he criticised Nato and Europe on their lack of defence spending and over reliance on America.

Biden and the Democrats criticised this when it's the actual truth.

And I'm not even going to touch Afghanistan as that still makes my blood boil.

Trump was right on all those areas.

Trump came with issues but he makes the Democrats look like the set of absurd incompetents that they are.

Harris gives a barely coherent speech on Ukraine.

Says there hasn't been a war in Europe for seventy years.

The woman's an idiot.

I guess she has heard of Yugoslavia.

Yeah like when my dad was in Egypt with thousands of other national serviceman that was a Police Action.
