    At least Ms Haley has a pair

    ...same can't be said for her boss.

    United States Ambassador to the United Nations (U.N.) Nikki Haley on Wednesday accused Russia of flagrantly and aggressively using a nerve agent to poison a former Russian spy in the United Kingdom, and called on Moscow to "come clean" about its chemical weapons program.

    “The United States believes that Russia is responsible for two people in the United Kingdom using a military-grade nerve agent,” Haley said at the U.N. in New York.

    "Russia must fully cooperate with the U.K.'s investigation and come clean about its own chemical weapons program," she added.

    Haley's comments were the strongest to date from a Trump administration official regarding the poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, with a nerve agent.

    Not that signing a puny letter is enough.

    I'm not sure that being shamed (if that can happen to Mr Tump) into being a co-signer of a letter indicates the emergence of any global matter on Mr Trump as it relates to his buddy Putin. Ms Haley was ahead of the curve that Mr Trump seems to be clinging to after the fact.

    Im still trying to figure out why the hell everybody thinks Putin and Trump are buddies? What have they done in the past that ould warrant that accusation? Makes no sense to me. The last admin was the ones who were trying to be buddies, until the reset button broke.

    Yeah I'm thinking the same thing Tex I just don't know why they're buddies I think that's the narrative that the resistance clings to
    OPINION....a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.

    I mean if all things were equal any politician who voted for the Iranian deal, that paid them billions in cash, should they be accused of being tied in with terrorists? Should they be harped on constantly? Bill Clinton was getting paid half a million for making a speech to the Russians, and nobody accuses him of anything? The Clinton foundation received tens of millions of dollars into the now defunct foundation from a russian company, yet no mention of their "collusion"? Let's at least be fair about this, Putin does not care about anybody but himself, he is not backing a particular candidate, he only want to make trouble for the USA or any other Country he has a beef with.

    All this stupidity and special counselors accusing Trump and his team of collusion is falling right into the trap that Putin and the hackers wanted in the first place. Damn shame that Clinton losing was the whole cause of this gigantic lie and fiasco. Good god I hope we are finally done with the Clinton political machine, they have been a smear on our politics for far too long. Between the Obama and Clinton campaigns, they have trashed America and caused undue pain ans strife because both of them want attention......just like Putin does. They are all playing the same game, yet some Americans just refuse to see that and make the connection.
