If Putin had Trump's balls firmly in his iron first, then how come sanctions are getting tougher and tougher against Russia. Or is this initiative being driven by the US Senate?

Yeah, that's Congress acting. Trump called the sanctions "extremely flawed".
Also, he's repeatedly missed deadlines to actually begin putting those sanctions in place, even though he signed the bill back in August.
Oh, and the State Dept has shuttered the Sanctions Office that actually deals with that sort of thing. http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/10/26/state-department-scraps-sanctions-office/

A silk dressing gown. Gold with purple piping, 'TRUMP' proudly emblazoned on the back.
I had a dress shirt, jacket, loooong tie, socks - no trousers.
The scariest part of that last tweet is the grammar is on point. Quotations marks and commas are used correctly. That means someone probably drafted it for him and it wasn't just him alone in the bathroom.
He's giving Jong-Un an out here (his closing sentence). You're all high here if you actually think Trump wants to start a nuclear war.
The enlightened one who knows what we all think. For fecks sake, so patronising. It's getting old now. On ignore you go.
Selective quoting again, I see. I said you're high if you think Trump wants to start a nuclear war. Not just a sweeping statement that everyone in the thread is high.
Bye.
Also, is there anything as condescending and high-and-mighty on message boards than somebody telling another poster that they're putting them on ignore?
Jog on, fella!
Jog on, fella!
It's comical how you accuse others of exactly the behaviour you are guilty of when it comes to Clinton. You're more than happy to assume the worst, believe every conspiracy and take her words out of context but get upset when people do the same to your cult leader.

Yeah pretty much everything you post lol
he's a liberal rememberWhat do you think Trump means when he says "Locked and Loaded"? What do you make of his other countless threats towards North Korea? Does he hint that he will destroy North Korea? If the prevailing opinion of Trump on here is anything it is that he is a blustering idiot, not that if he has the will does he even possess the ability to press the button while he is nursemaided so perhaps it is time for you to name and shame the "All' on here who are high rather then make sweeping slashes with your keyboard of truth.

...he’s already put you on ignore, so you’re just doing the forum equivalent of shouting at air when the other person has walked away.Also, is there anything as condescending and high-and-mighty on message boards than somebody telling another poster that they're putting them on ignore?

Where in my post did I direct or @ to that poster? I don't give an ounce of thought to whom ignores/blocks me. It was a wider point in general about announcing it to someone. Posters who feel the need to tell others they have them on ignore, blocked on Twitter etc. are utter narcissists, love drama and feel superior to the thoughts and ideas of the person they're ignoring. "I have nothing whatsoever to learn from your opinions and even merely reading your posts is a great inconvenience to me."
Indeed.
Speaking of comical: LOL.
P.S. I don't subscribe to every wacky conspiracy theory re: Clinton. That would be completely irrational. Any criticism I have of her and Clintonworld in general is borne out of facts and their actions. It's funny that I'm getting accused of such behaviour, however, when that exact behaviour is exhibited on the many Trump threads on this site when it comes to unproved, salacious rumours about Trump and we have posters here back-slapping each other and gossiping like schoolgirls about these mental conspiracy theories.
It's all very passive aggressive isn't it? "oh I didn't name anyone" - just accuses a nebulous 'They' or 'All' with no actual responsibility for any accusation.
You're still a child aren't you? I hadn't actually realised until now. No wonder you're so impressionable and into your conspiracy theories, you're still in that naive stage of your life where you're sure the world is out to get you so it's no wonder you've been taken in by the bombastic Trump. You'll grow out of this stage when your hormones settled down.
Indeed. Announcing to somebody that you're blocking/ignoring them on a social media platform/discussion forum is the quintessential form of passive aggression. It would be quite sad if it wasn't so laughable.
The Russian distraction bot has been activated again.
Did I direct that at you? You see, that's how it goes.
Odd how selectively you address points directed at yourself @Buchan
Can we thread ban him please? This is the billionth time he's derailed the thread. @Raoul
Speaking of distraction (with a half-baked attempt to delegitimise my point for good measure), we have this above.
I was being serious.
I didn't derail the thread. I commented on the Trump tweet as per my right to do so like everybody else here. It was the other poster who derailed the thread with infantile announcements of "I'm not reading your posts anymore."
You don't address the posts directed at you.
It's understandable how little understanding of Trump you have, given you seem to get your Trump news directly from Trumps arsehole. But it's extraordinary that you'd forget your own posts here so quickly.
I've said many, many times before that it's impossible to engage with posters in these threads because as soon as you make a post in even the mere slightest defence of Trump, your notifications blow up. (I've also noticed that when I attempt to engage with the very same posters on other topics, replies are very slow in forthcoming. I don't mind; after all, it's every poster's right to reply to whomever they wish.)
I genuinely have no appetite to converse and debate with five and six people at a time. The end game remains the same anyhow: neither party will convince the other of their argument and the cycle starts all over again on the next issue. Repeat ad nauseum.
You're making assumptions again.
The "lying* list is considerably longer in reality. Quite amazing anyone can still fall for his antics.
Donald Trump: Putin’s Manchurian Idiot

Given I've directly addressed the content in your posts I find this a very convenient excuse. And in this case a post made in reply of your very early current visit suggesting that you believe one of Trump's tweets but not several others but that you would like to take anyone accepting them at face value to task.
I have to agree with @Pexbo that you seem very immature.
Absolute horse shit. You drop absolute nonsense, refuse to backup it up with any logic when it’s challeneged and then turn the whole thing into a drama about how hard you have it in here in the hope that you don’t have to actually have to address the difficult task of attempting to put some thought into your reply.
It’s tiresome, you know full well you’re defending the indefensible, I doubt you’re even honest enough with yourself to do a little introspection and ask exactly why you think Trump is a positive force for you.
Of course Trump has made threats to North Korea to try curb their aggressive stance on weapons and weapons-testing, but has he outright clamoured for nuclear war? If he is hellbent on nuclear war, why isn't he the one initiating proceedings then? Why is he exploring different avenues to try coax Jong-Un into line? (China, sanctions etc.) I find it incredible that there are people here convinced Trump actually wants to start a nuclear war. Absolutely incredible.
Yet I'm the immature one? Go figure!
