What was President Trump thinking when he congratulated Vladimir Putin on his "reelection" to the Russian Presidency. This is outrageous because:
1) The Russian election, with candidates prohibited from running, not being a democratic process.
2) Mr. Putin or his agents are suspected of being complicit in the attempted murder of Russian Nationals on British soil.
3) Mr. Putin or his agents are suspected of being complicit in interfering with elections in this country and others.
What kind of signal does the leader of the Free World send when he openly congratulates this dictator on his "reelection?" In three words, a bad one.
We deserve better from our President.
