The distinction between Obama's "congratulations" to Putin, vs Trump's:
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/20/us/politics/trump-putin-russia.html
In fact, both Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush called to congratulate Mr. Putin after previous election victories.
In Mr. Obama’s case, said Michael A. McFaul, who served as ambassador to Moscow during the Obama administration, there was lively internal debate about whether, and when, the president should make that call. Mr. Obama waited several days after Mr. Putin’s election in March 2012 before calling.
After that election, the State Department issued a statement in which it said, “The United States congratulates the Russian people on the completion of the presidential elections, and looks forward to working with the president-elect after the results are certified and he is sworn in.”
The language, Mr. McFaul said, was carefully chosen to applaud the Russian people for voting without praising Mr. Putin for winning. The statement also noted the reservations of outside observers about the “partisan use of government resources, and procedural irregularities on Election Day,” though it credited the Russian authorities for reforms after a widely criticized parliamentary election the previous December.

HE is the POTUS, NOT them.
Fact is, Putin was just as much of a scoundrel when 0bama congratulated him and even MORE of one when 0bama whispered to him that he would be free to do more with him after the election. What do thing he meant by that, DAnny?

Not that I think that matters much, but Putin's Russia isn't half as bad as the former Soviet Union and the Untied States is more than twice as bad as it used to be.
Personally, I think the right move is to play nice with Putin, especially when it comes using NATO trying to bring former Soviet countries under the west's sphere of influence. It's not our business and it will definitely provoke a defensive response that war mongering pinheads (like McCain), liberal pinheads, and evil neocons will use to paint Russia as a terrible country that's interfering in western democracies all while we are 10 times worse.
All that said, if he does get aggressive (and not for the purpose of defense), then you do have to be tough.

He wants to do political and economic business with both.
With Russia, that means doing business with Putin because he's not going anywhere any time soon. With Venezuela, that means getting the rid of the ruinous socialists that destroyed the country because you can't do business with a mentally disturbed homeless guy.

don't seem to recall anyone bitching about him congratulating him, but I do know we were on him about his whisper comment about being able to show his true colors AFTER the election.
I also remember Hillary wanting to play with Putin and obama wanting to re-set our relations. And no one bitching.
Trolls like Dan just forget those thing when they find a gem someone else came up with and repost it here.
Dan his elk are just so desperate to find something bad about Trump that they grab any scraps the internet throws at them.

Obama did the opposite of what he said. Trump actually does what he says...
Pick which is worse. I'll go latter.
I'd have sent them #MAGA logo body bags for the Wagneri's we kicked the sh*t out of as an election gift.
Well, all least Trump didn't congratulate the guy in Iran, the world's leading sponsor of terrorism who once held American diplomats hostage under a democrat president with no balls or brains. Or the guy in Egypt who was in the Muslin Brotherhood, a terrorist organization.
I mean, what kind of a low-life, anti-American POS would do that?

Obama didn't congratulate either of them.
Again though this isn't about Obama its about Trump who is calling to congratulate the leader of a country who launched an attack against American Forces holding a Oil Refinery in Syria... a month ago.
Yes, he did.
And Trump is also enforcing sanctions on RUssian and arming the Ukraine with real weapons.
This is about the left scrapping the bottom of the barrel to come up with BS to throw against Trump - nothing more.
That BS fluu piece from the NYTimes that Dan posted showing how it was different when Obama congratulated Putin shows exactly what this farce is about. Losers still in shock that they could put a decrepit old hag in the WH after she insulted half of America and threatened to take away the livelihood of a large section of people in the coal business.

We should not be involved in Syria and it was the west's fault Russia made a move on Crimea. The CIA and west were trying put Ukraine under our sphere of influence. That helped oust the democratically elected leader of Ukraine that was friendly to Russia and brought in someone that was friendly to the west and might even join NATO.
If I was the president of Russia (and I am a pacifist when it comes to military), I would have made a move on Crimea and Ukraine too. It was too strategically important to allow the west to continue to move closer to the Russian border with NATO when part of the deal for breaking up the Soviet Union was that the west would not interfere in the former satellites. Russia understandably wants a buffer between the west and their own border.
Putin is a bad guy, but we are instigating all the problems we have with Russia right now because the neocons are among the worst human beings to ever have influence in this country and the media is complicit with all the lies. We could easily do business with Putin with very little trouble. That's what he wants. Instead we are trying to cut him off so he's trying to team up with China instead. Trump is correct on Russia. Putin sucks,but you can do business with him without much trouble just like we do with the commies in China.
