There's diplomacy and then there's this. He is a Putin Fanboy. How can his supporters think this is ok?

He also pinned the tweet to his twitter account.

Obama is done, Trump is our new President and he has to work with Russia/Putin.
At this point, Obama is just tantruming. Obama has been hopeless with foreign policy, as evidenced most recently with Putin and Erdogan agreeing to a ceasefire while Obama vacations and was completely left out of the convo. |
| This is diplomacy and no worse than that sophomoric and amateurish Reset Button. |
Again, this discussion was more focused on Trump. I said diplomacy is central but Trump is a fanboy. |
Obama has never engaged Russia as he should have. He has disregarded Putin and Russia and now with days left, is grasping at straws to seem like he's an engaged leader. The whole Romney/the 80s called they want the foreign policy back blather was actually Obama's attitude-dismissive and ineffectual- for 8 years. |
Use whatever immature words you wish. It changes nothing of the reality. |

| No words. No words. Very out of line of Trump. |
So Trump should just ineffectually ignore Russia as Obama did for 8 years? Putin is making Obama look like an idiot on the global stage. Geesh. |
No just no. Most respected countries see Putin for the dictator he is except Trump. |
He's in the last part of a failed Presidency. Two horrible Secretaries of State and a huge blunder in ME policy. |
| Seems like a pretty solid move on Obama's part to institute sanctions. Now Trump will stand out as the Russian stooge he is as soon as he lifts them. |
It is ridiculous to compare Obama and Putin. One is a pathetic lame duck and the other a force to be reckoned with within global politics. Wherever I like or approve of Putin or Russian government is immaterial. Trump has to deal with Putin. I suppose he should just disregard Putin and pretend he doesn't exist, ala fingers in the ears, ala Obama? |
Failed presidency = no. John Kerry was an excellent SoS. |
