Putin's Road to War: Susan Glasser (interview) | FRONTLINE

- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- In an interview for the FRONTLINE documentary “Putin’s Road to War,” Susan Glasser, columnist at The New Yorker and co-author of "Kremlin Rising," discusses how military force has been key to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s rise to power.
“One thing that you get from looking at the whole sweep of Putin’s two decades in power is to understand that, for him, the use of military force has accompanied every step along the way of his journey to become Russia’s longest-serving leader since Josef Stalin,” she tells FRONTLINE.
Glasser is a columnist and staff writer at The New Yorker. She previously served as editor of Politico and editor-in-chief of Foreign Policy magazine. She spent four years as a Moscow bureau chief for The Washington Post and is the co-author, with Peter Baker, of "Kremlin Rising: Vladimir Putin’s Russia and the End of Revolution."
The following interview was conducted by FRONTLINE's Mike Wiser on March 4, 2022. It has been edited for clarity and length.

There is no video in the link? I really want to see this one :)
President Biden(s!) is asking Congress for $13 billion for Ukraine. Where is the money for securing the US Southern Border? Thousands of people from all over the world, including Russians, invade the USA through the border Democrats are not interested in securing!!
Why did not the Obama/Biden give these sanctions when Russia invaded the Ukraine Crimea region in 2014???? The small sanctions implemented gave Putin the green light for his current actions!! Why was Hunter Biden on the Board of Directors of a Ukranian energy company for $50,000 a month?? What about the evidence on Hunter Biden's laptop and his Chinese Communist connections!?!?

The video is not available here in Romania…
I'm terrified. As a Russian who left twenty-five years ago I wasn't in touch with Russia much. In 2017 I met some people via internet and the level of propaganda was overwhelming. "What were they fed?" I grew up during Soviet era, left in the criminal 90s, lived in Canada long enough and changed a lot, and now this... I watch everything of worth from sources in Russian (including propaganda itself just to see to what extent they lie). I agree with Susan Glasser - he'll do everything he threatens to do and everything he promises to never do. He is the most dangerous man in the world. I'm terrified. Just terrified.
If you think Russia has bad propaganda just turn on main stream media in the US. It’s no different then China or Russia.. a bunch of lies.
PBS is literally US funded propaganda, don't think of yourself as special and immunized to that brain rot
You wonder why the Russian people would believe this propaganda and then you turn your head and hear Trumpsters spew their lies and you get it.
@@flylgw36 We can tell you're still dealing with your Trump derangment syndrome after all these years but normies here don't watch your shit news, we don't care what Trump says and the war in Ukraine started in 2014 when Hussain Obama was your president
@@NASTYNATE420 u r definitely wackedout. Not even close to being like China or Russia. Get a clue
This was, by far, one of the most educating 45 minutes on Putin that I have watched. Actually, it was back to back with the old Putin and present Putin documentary. I hope to watch it again because sometimes I miss a kernel of info. Watch it! It should be mandatory viewing for all Americans! Thank you PBS!
Yes but do they have a specific narrative they're pushing, like everyone else seems to have?
Indeed....Susan is just outstanding !
@@carynmartin6053 yes, the narrative is Putin is a evil dictator. The worst in our history since oh, Hitler, Stalin?
I look forward to a PBS programme on CIA backed coups in Iran, Chile, Guatemala. Obama's bullying of Uganda when a popular law passed in parliament but the Obama regime didn't like etc. I like the interview but there needs to be some examination of American deep state policies. The anti Trump hatred does not help either. No wonder so many Americans despise their own CIA Globalist elite. The CIA group think is amazing in this series. Is Putin great? No! Is Trump great? No! But the CIA group think is equally worrying in its hatred of Trump and worship of Obama, Clinton and Biden. Clearly the notion of democracy is a strange concept to the CIA.
@@carynmartin6053 correct, they left out the undeniable fact that President's Biden weakness gave Putin the final green light to unleash this horrible catastrophe.
I am experiencing first hand the anguish and pain these Ukrainians are going through at the moment. We (a small group ) are assisting 2 ladies each with a 15 yr.Old daughter coming to our little village in Germany with nothing but a small rucksack. They have fled from Kiev. Their families and livelihoods have been torn apart. This past week has been extremely hard getting accommodation and furnishing it for them. I mean these 2 ladies are economic graduates but feel like idiots because they don’t speak German. Fortunately one lady and the young girls speak a little Engli
sh. They are traumatized with their young sons and husbands fighting to keep Kiev. One can c that they are afraid of every news they get from there. Their old parents are sitting in icy cold cellars. This is the reality of war. We are doing everything we can to make them comfortable but we cannot take away the pain and worry. A really extremely well put together and detailed picture of Putin. He got away with a lot of brutal military attacks in Georgia , Tschechien , Crimea , Donbas Region in Ukraine. He of didn’t expect the west to react in this manner. However, I know the sanctions are working but the private planes with these oligarchs are still landing in Dubai. Their money stashed away in Switzerland is not sanctioned. Many Germans are prepared to sit cold to stop Putin in his tracks.
Thankyou Ursula. Your words of kindness are appreciated. 🇨🇦❤️🇩🇪❤️🇺🇦
Bless you & your family for helping people fleeing Ukraine... love & prayers for the families hurt in this war!
Thank you for your gracious giving. You are the true kind of human we need more of in this world. You are the best❣...Best wishes for all of you on this journey of hope.
Ursula from what I can piece together from you tube and the news is that NATO all got together and discussed a plan. Layer apon layer of sanctions. Was what we were told. And from what I see it was a good idea.
I do think they need to do more to the oligarchs. But maybe it is in their plan to do so.
I don't know. I just think NATO needs to be careful because war would not be good for Europe.
Thank you for telling us your story. My heart goes out to you and the two woman you are helping.
Tank you for your help. we should sanction Switzerland and Dubai.
It is very important that we have intelligent people who have studied Russia explaining this to us. Thank you Susan Glasser.
Such a brillant summary of the current situation.

Incredible insight,and,very articulate. Susan Glasser has it absolutely accurate,and,amazing experience in Russia. Her observations are very disturbing,but absolutely spot on.
😂😂 I don’t think so mate
I wish I was as sure about Putin as you seem to be. After seeing some other docs on the subject I'm not as convinced as I once was. I want to believe Susan Glaser but in all reality there are so many more moving parts to this file. Azov Battalion for example and the history of Ukraine for another give me pause. Susan is very well versed but wonder if this is actual truth. I mean WMD was a shoe-in, according to Colin Powell(RIP) and look what transpired there. Like I said, I'd like to believe her but there are too many unanswered questions here to just take her word for it. The way Susan portrays Putin is merely opinion and even propaganda. Will have to do much more research on this one. All is definitely not as it may seem.
The question is, how does Putin differ from the United States / CIA?
I absolutely love these interviews. So much wonderful context for understanding what is going on now. Love listening to articulate, smart people.
Me too!
Me too! 👍🏻
Same. Awesome interview. 👍
Astonishing interview

Absolutely fascinating. The world needs more of this type of current events presentation. Well done!!
Agreed ... Frontline generally does a very good job of covering important events.
Nope. She spins the news in favor of the left.
I wonder how many views these Frontline videos will get after Putin uses his nuclear weapons?
Susan Glasser's knowlege,and frank manner of truth telling is fascinating and extremely frightening in its honesty. Her delivery and honest opinions and tell it like it is manner is hard to ignore. Kind of like driving past a car wreck and trying not to look. I've watched this 3 times now and will watch again I'm sure. I am truly grateful for her frank and honest evaluations of the situation we are all in now and mostly powerless to change.
Susan! YOU ♡♡♡♡ ○R WORK OF ART, YOURSELF,
And her networth
Can't see what's so brilliant about her. She pretty much recounts what happened. No more, no less. However...
Trump may be a bumbling idiot, but there's next to nothing here about Obama's role in events. Well, that's The New York Times for you!
Honesty? Or smthng else?
These two women have given the clearest explanation of this insanity I've heard yet.
You can’t be dumb enough to believe that?
Which two women?
I love watching Susan Glasser on CNN as well as her NYT writer and husband Peter Baker on MSNBC. So knowledgeable and accurate in their assessments and reporting.
@@shelleyhaviland4764 CNN ,MSNBC,NYT ... Lucky you , they are epitome of truth .
Susan Glasser is a hypocrite. She made a statement on Twitter asking to spare a thought for journalists who have risked their lives while in Ukraine, but then when a Fox News journalist was found dead in Ukraine, she then ended up mocking his death.
Ms. Glasser, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience during this interview.
This interview has taken all of the bits of information, like pixels, that we have been hearing and strings them all together to form a very clear picture of what's happening. Absolutely chilling. My heart breaks for the Ukrainians, and I can't help but feel empathy for the average Russian citizen. Scary times.☮
As the war goes badly, they likely will search for scapegoats.
@@RobBCactive, I thought this was an articulate interview, she makes a lot of sense.
I feel the same for the average Russian citizen. Many have left the country! Many elders do not believe this is happening.
@@highestgood5169, me too! I had recently followed a couple of people from Russia and Ukraine before this happened. I love the basic culture and traditions, the villages where the babushka makes a meal from items that her family has grown or raised. They are living their everyday life far removed from Putin that knows what foie gras is. There is little concern for the citizen there that just wants to live in peace.
@@tinkletink1403, what are you talking about?
Best one hour + of dialogue, thank you Susan
The Best Analysis of Putin I’ve watched in 20 years… Great Report 100% Truth to Power on the Ukrainian Situation 🌟
Another interview which shows how powerful it is to hear someone who has true knowledge which we want to hear in amongst all the blah, blah, blah. A really good listen, thank you Susan Glasser.
She spins the news in favor of the left.
God Almighty bless Ukraine...
Putin told George W Bush of his opinion of Ukraine back way back when Bush was President. There have been disturbing clues as to Putin's intentions for years that have been disregarded or ignored.
Disturbing clues? Putin was very straight forward that he did not want NATO missiles in Ukraine. How would England feel with Russian missiles in Belfast? Continental Europe can solve it's own problems. England can deal with theirs, as can the US.
Right. Bush totally misjudged Putin. So did President Obama.
Clinton had misgivings and voiced them when Putin was made Prime Minister by Boris Yeltsin.
Yeltsin later regretted it.
Clinton nailed it
Trump. No words to describe that one.
@@NA-kx3vw Trump is a traitor!
The whole time Trump was campaining for POTUS, and empathicly stating that he had nothing to do with Russia, Micheal Cohen was negotigating a Trump Tower Moscow.
To be funded by a Russian State owned Bank.
@@frederickhartray9701 Frederick, there were no missiles in Ukraine, neither any plans to deploy them. This is Putin's propaganda, a pretense for war. Most Ukrainians were even against joining NATO prior to 2014 events, they only changed their minds after Russia attacked.
Most likely the real reason was that Ukraine was considering to join EU and potentially competeing with Russian gas and mineral exports in future. Putin's regime cannot afford to have a prosperous democratic nation living next door. That would be a direct threat - not to Russia itself - but to his own kleptocratic system.
@@yuribezmenov4631 There were more than 25 bio weapon labs, which the US media is calling "health labs." Victoria Nuland sort of spilled the beans on that one saying she fered they would fall into the Russian hands worning not just of the existance but possible US Ukranian false flag.
She is so smart
She was on point about Putin. Thank you for sharing your poignant views.
Another fabulous interview! Thanks for giving us the real story. It's actually heartbreaking to hear it.
@@tinkletink1403 I"ll be fine - thanks for caring. Maybe you have some first hand experience with the Trump administration you can share to straighten me out. And please share it with Susan Glasser.
I watched this video 4 times. She is an extremely extremely bright, sharp. insightful lady with a huge conscience and the right values.
She is great
Haha, ya….no.
Thank you Susan, I could listen to your thoughts all day long. Enlightening and informative. thanks.
These series are so descent because interviewers are actually letting their guests speak. Good job ☺️
This was an excellent interview .
That's the best way to give the editors the most testimony to heavily edit to fit their narrative. Every interviewee on Frontline knows what they actually said will be taken wildly out of context to fit a controlled narrative. When you watch an actual Frontline documentary it's eye opening to see how chopped up these full interviews are
@@plasticflashlight3039 🙄 _narrative_
@@BoltRM I know, I hate narratives as much as you do, 100%
I feel her genuine concern. I am a layman that just wish those people in power, whether in politics and corporations to just stop playing games and honestly ask themselves, “what kind of world do we want for ourselves and our future generations to come?”
I understand my naïve thinking, but honest communication is so undervalued… and intellectual communication is convoluted. My love to all ❤️
I could not agree with you more. It is not naive to hope people are capable of seeing the bigger picture and the human race is capable of so much more than we have seen in recent years. They just have to start believing in the worlds possibilities again, strive for better, be better. I hope as you do.
@@kerra3699 thank you 😊. I don’t believe in big solution. But I truly believe with self honesty and responsibility. This small step is what might be the future of our kind. My love to you ❤️
Putin did ask himself that. His answer is a world with the soviet union rebuilt. Either stop him or he keeps doing it
Sadly communist nations politics is all around lies to themselves, to others. to everybody. Constant lying where most of the time I don't think they know anymore what is lies and what is the truth.
@George Morenstein You are making a completely ridiculous connection between two very different concepts. A woman's right for governance over her own body and destiny., and the right of people to live freely without fear of invasion and repression. Both need to be respected. The people who rail against abortion are too often the same people who think Putin's inhumane behaviour is quite acceptable. Worry less about the Hell below and think about the Hell in Ukraine.
Irresistible to stop,she's admirable
Superb interview. Thank you. I remember Putin's absolutely callous response to the Kursk submarine disaster and that stands out for me as an example of his ruthlessness. Such a shame that he is for now the face to the world of the great culture of Russia. Prayers for Ukraine and Russia both, end this war.
Thank you Susan for the insight! I watched almost all of the Putin files.
If he would had succeeded in Ukraine 🇺🇦 with a Blitz, he wouldn’t had stopped there. We are all afraid how this will end.

The bombs never dropped on Trump's watch.... Putin sensed the weakness that Biden portrays...every day. He is a buffoon,as is his VP
@@oldbagira2192 This was the widespread assumption pre-invasion but have you not seen what unfolded since then? Ukrainians haven amply proven us wrong, their courage and determination is such that they are actually keeping Russia's military might at bay despite an enormous power differential.
Putin's chances of subjugating them seem near-nonexistent at this point especially if you consider the cost of this war between sanctions that are tanking Russia's economy and a death toll which is already after 20 days in Ukraine Russia 2-4 times as bad as the U.S. death toll in 20 years in Afghanistan (2.300).
@@paoloadam Please check the material and early sources.
When somebody this knowledgeable , professional and contained talks about Vladimir Putin in almost alarmist tones, such as "He is the most dangerous person in the world right now" we all really need to pay attention.
This is a fascinating interview, and I learned quite a bit. I can't say i feel any better for it though. The subject matter is so grim it still blows my mind that three weeks ago, people were going to work, restaurants and pubs in Kyiv, living a normal life, and now the entire, beautiful country full of beautiful people is in flames. Is an unforgivable crime against humanity. If there was ever any justification for an assassination, this is it. For this, I live in hope.

When HE decided…made the announcement after their last election, that he would extend the next election to 2034, that he had declared he was NEVER going to leave ruling Russia. And here he is in his glory of maniacal power.
Yeah, and to a large extent, Russians have to take some accountability. It's not just their culture that produced him but their "power over" culture that sustains him.
@@adabsurdum3314 they’ve never learned how to fight for a democracy..freedom. From Tzarinas, Tzars, Lenin and Stalin….they’ve always been told how to think and act. Only new generations 100 years removed can understand how to fight for their OWN CHOICES. Ukrainian is doing it….bless them.
This was very informative. Loved it. Thank you!
I totally learned a lot in this video‼️
I think that the minute she mentioned Trumps language as word salad, I loved her.
Orange man bad.
Yet reporters like her will never talk about how absolutely pathetic Kamala Harris sounded in her press conference in Poland this week. She made absolutely no sense in her remarks and it actually sounded like she was reading from a Dr Seuss book. How now brown cow! There's a wocket in my pocket!
TO troll
This is one of the best videos on the topic of Mr. Putin, his lies, and the Ukrainian War as Vladimir Putin's war. It is very disturbing. It also shows how Trump made this war possible by his lack of understanding of international relations, his comments in praise of Putin, and his failure to confront Putin when he had the opportunity.
It’s very well done, hopefully soon they do one on koch and other American oligarchs trying to invade venezuela l
The major portion of responsibility lies at the feet of McConnell and Paul Ryan who could have stopped Trump. Their greed for power overshadowed any sense of national and international security.
Trump is just a sycophant.
Yes, I remember Trump saying how good he got along with Putin and the fact that he (Trump) made hundreds of millions from the Russians. And now this!!! Wonder how "the Donnie" feels about Putin now. What an idiot!!! Should never have been anywhere near the White House!!!
@@lessimcdowell9897 Nobody said there wasn't troubling factions within American business but at least we know about the Koch Bros. and their methods.
Thank you (again) to Susan Glasser and Frontline for an excellent presentation. One point that (to my knowledge) has not been raised in any of the Putin Files, is the psychology of the abuser. I reference a book by Alice Miller “It’s For Your Own Good”, the subject is serial killers. In her book Alice Miller’s hypothesis is that serial killers original wounds are being acted out in the torture that they inflict on their victims. In the case of Putin (brought up in a war flattened Leningrad) his regime carries out a serial recreation of what happened to Leningrad, right down to starving the population. Could it be of any help to consider this aspect in attempting to formulate an response to Putin’s pathological behaviour pattern?
Thank you for introducing Alice MIller to the debate. Her arguments and theory are SO relevant to politics in general, but especially to Putin and, for that matter, any other authoritarian dictator who lives out his own childhood deprivation and abuse at the expense of the rest of the world. Her insights make this crazy, irrelevant war comprehensible.
. .
Brilliant interview! There are so many inputs I'd like to make on the nuances of power, greed and control that I see just by watching the thoughts Ms Glasser. I think the bottom line is that democracy works. The people need to have the ability to discard any leader that takes them down a path that they revile or disagree with. When power is given to one individual with no checks and balances, narcissism can take hold and be detrimental to the masses. Democracy saved America this time! Please people have your say through the vote and don't be dominated by power and greed. They are only flesh and bone like you!
There are no democracies, only actors. They all learned the lesson of the roman social wars. Keep the poor feeling like they have a say and they wont notice you robing them.
@@kmond6166 So you would prefer they rob us without giving us a say? At least by having our say we have a chance. Without a say we have nothing
@@kmond6166 By the way, let putin know that violence only begets violence. His time is coming!
Amazingly, Trump stayed in office for the full 4 years and then lost to Biden who basically ran on Trump's campaign and won. It's all a show. How could it be that the American people chose an 80 year old man who can hardly string together a sentence and who sniffs young girls' hair brazenly and on camera without so much as a backlash from the left. If democracy truly worked, how could this be? Surely Americans couldn't be this stupid...or are you telling me that they are?

I'm glad you have seen through Trump. I'm from Scotland and it has been terrible to see how Trump has exploited the existing divisions in American society and polarised opinion for his own advantage. Democracy has to be defended. Russia got a brief taste of it in the 1990s but there is no history of democracy in Russia so the former party men of power, KGB, were easily able to get control of the countries wealth and have since bled the country dry. They became billionaires, and Putin, bit by bit stifled freedom of speech and imprisoned his enemies and became rich himself. One good thing to come out of all this is the countries of Europe are working together more closely than before because they what a threat Putin is to all of our futures. And please remember that Putin over the years has supported groups that create division in other societies be that Brexit in the UK, or Trump getting into power in the USA, or facists and racist groups in Eastern Europe. Putin thrives on divisiveness.

A fantastic interview, it kept me listening to it all.
Frontline I’m addicted to all your videos….. thank you 😊
Just an excellent journalist and analyst. Could listen to her insights for hours. Fascinating and very troubling.
Putin didn't say "speak clearly", he said "speak straight (get to the point)". In this context, Putin obviously didn't want his subordinate to speak clearly or clarify what he was saying, he already had enough of him doing a poor job at that. Putin was impatient and wanted him to get to the point.
That’s what I thought initially but rewatching it multiple time over and over I came to a conclusion that Putin didn’t want to hear anything but what he wanted to hear.
Oh well you would know better 🙄
@@wontbefooledagain9400 My wife was born in the Soviet Union. She explained to me what Putin was really saying when we watched the video together.

Like when a known mafiosi asked a rival how’s your family? they are issuing a veiled threat or at very least a reminder of how they play there game. The fact that the admonishment was telecast says Putin is reminding everyone - world wide that he alone has command over every aspect & action taken by Russia.
@@kathypiazza7228 I think that is the main point as well. The assertion of power.
Fantastic, Susan and Frontline for this work.
Impressive interview. Very informative. Such a calm professional. Wow!
Those of us who care are eternally grateful to you, Ms Glasser, for devoting your life to learning the background to let you give us this most clear-eyed assessment of our common situation. My hope is in the Christmas carol, "the wrong shall fail, the right prevail, with Peace on Earth, good will to men".
She spins the news in favor of the left.
Yes in the end😊
You have been brainwashed
Thank you so much, Smart Lady. And thank you, Frontline.
This woman is incredibly articulate. Concise, clear simply brilliant analysis
Brilliant journalism!! Thank you !!
This is an excellent analysis of Putin’s war.
Well, he's a serious trained killer. With a legit BLACK BELT..... He's serious. Don't take lightly.
Frontline is absolutely nailing it on this series
Nope! It is spinning it in favor of the left.
She spouts a bit of propaganda
She is a tool for the CIA. The world is in deep trouble.
@@lindageorge2104 seems like she was just giving her opinion
Misinformation
It is so nice to see an American that is so educated and articulate, this is one smart lady
American woman with British chompers who's married to a man who looks like the most irritating prick you wished to punch in the face. Call it like it is.
Newly subscribed. So glad I found your channel
Why is the documentary unavailable??
20:10 -- Holy crap. When someone this professional speaks that emphatically when mentioning WW3, I start to worry.
It's supposed to scare you. Putin wanted to stop the genocide by Ukranians in Donbas. He does not even want Donbas. Americans should pay this much attention to their far more copious wars. 900,000 died in Iraq, and that is just one of the 8 US warss in the last 20 years.
I dont think this is a precursor to WWIII. The most similar moment in history to this Ukranine invasion is when the Soviet Union toppled the anti communist Hungarian rebels in the 1950s. Obviously it didn't have much of a global impact. Now, if China decides to make a move on Taiwan, then I think saying it would be justifiable to label this as WWIII. I'm not trying to marginalize the current Ukranian struggle, but I think 2 years from now it will be totally forgotten on the global scale. Most likely a cop will shoot a PoC and we will all stop giving a shit about Ukraine.
Susan Glasser is the left's answer to Fox News. Relax.
@@frederickhartray9701, Big Lies repeated are still lies. Putin merely claimed genocide as an excuse to take territory.
@@kylenolan2710 Typical American reply. I am so digusted to have been born in a country where people downplay genocide.
Let me guess, you're a good Christian.
Susan Glassier is an American hero! However, it is sad that stating facts and being objective can make you an American hero...
Keep staying with the truth!!
Yes. Or a villain!
This is why I watch Frontline, great guest, absolutely engrossing!
These are great videos my night time ritual thanks 😊
Thank you for this excellent interview!
Brilliant again...stunning program...thank you!
Wonderful perspectives on the ongoing conflict.

Ms. Glasser is a great journalist. Thank you for sharing her interview.
Thank you Susan
Great interview. I learned so much. Thanks Patrick.
An epic plot twist would be if the guy he reprimands coordinates the coup that brings him down.
Isn’t that the same guy he had Jailed the head of the FSB?
@@Ryanbwin Oh, he must have seen it coming.
It won't happen they have a dead man's switch. Meaning if putin goes down, Russia's nuke flies!
@@void________ I have to go back and look at the tape I could be mistaken there are three or four different intelligence agencies in Russia the FSB the GRU and I don’t know the names of the other ones but I do know the head of the FSB has been jailed you can look it up.
@@Ryanbwin I looked it up. I think you're right.

Thank you for this analysis.
Excellent . Thank you
Really appreciate these interviews, hearing from these people that know so much about the topic instead of random twitter takes that happen everyday.
The state of affairs we find ourselves in is very sobering. I sure hope we have the most brilliant people possible at the helm of things.
LOL did you vote for Biden? If so then I don't believe you.
Not just brilliant but prudent. When a dictator declares on war, his enemies need to stand up to him. Cutting him off from markets, trade, banking and travel is standing up to him. Ukrainians have showing their Russian cousins that their destiny, their freedom lies in their hands, not Putin. We have to stay course and cut off all ties to the Western World and our non-Western allies in World Peace. Putin oligarchs and the people will turn on him.
I hate to dash your hopes, but brilliant isn't the term I would use to identify our current leaders. I think they have done a good job so far though, but you know, who cares what I think, lol.
Unfortunately we have a giant "toothless tiger" with a hand cuffed NATO
Are you joking?????
Have you not been watching OUR COUNTRY being destroyed by the tyrants you dummies wanted in the White House
The shocking part is that you idiots still listen to all this bs and actually believe it lol
How many times did you dummies have to touch a hot stove before you learned your lesson?
We tried to tell you all that everything your side has said about President Trump was a lie but it’s sad it had to come to this before you grow a spine and do what’s right instead of just what you think all the other dummies wanted you to do
GOD BLESS AMERICA
Susan Glasser 👍
Sad to realize that the USA did almost the same violent destructions in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq.
Vietnam was an attempt to prop up a corrupt South Vietnamese government and oppose a monolithic communist movement. It was clear that there were divisions in the communist movement. Afghanistan was justified because the United States was attacked. There was no justification for Iraq. The Ukrainian is the equivalent of what Hitler did in Poland. Its a bloody historical power grab.
Fascinating and insightful.
New Yorker columnists, when not engaging in racial dogma, are among the most insightful and informed journalists out there.
As a Native New Yorker I am proud but not surprised. The world's best is in NY🌹
She spins the news in favor of the left.
Oh, ffs. "Racial dogma"? Grow up.
@@Seekthetruth3000 She reports the news in favor of the truth.
@@kkpenney444Well that's my opinion, and I'm sorry that it's unacceptable to you. And no, I'm not a Trump supporter or right wing troll.
Very interesting,thank you!
