Statesman or stooge?

I ran across this video by accident, Obama addressing Parliament in 2011. Compare it with anything Trump has ever said on any subject on the best day he ever had.

Speaking of statesmen.....

“This is a matter of American honor and promise. So too is the principle that we stand by our allies, that we do not abandon our friends. The decision to abandon the Kurds violates one of our most sacred duties. It strikes at American honor. What we have done to the Kurds will stand as a bloodstain in the annals of American history.

There are broad strategic implications of our decision as well. Iranian and Russian interests in the Middle East have been advanced as well. At a time when we are applying maximum pressure on Iran, by giving them a stronger hand in Syria, we have actually weakened that pressure. Russia’s objective to play a greater role in the Middle East has also been greatly enhanced. The Kurds, out of desperation, have aligned with Assad. So America is diminished; Russia, Iran and Assad are strengthened.”"
- Senator Mitt Romney, R - Utah.

Mitt Romney is a true Republican. Those of you who call yourselves Republicans but support Trump are nothing but Russian patsies/RINOs. You fools have abandoned true Republican moral values.
