President Donald Trump should immediately call upon Russian President Vladimir Putin to "halt his behavior — and do so publicly," after reports that the U.S. leader either ignored, or was unaware of, a Russian plot to kill U.S. troops in Afghanistan, retired Army Gen. Wesley Clark told The Gazette .

The interview followed last week's publication of an editorial in USA Today in which Clark charged that Trump's response to reports of the bounty were weak, even if he wasn't briefed. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2020/07/01/president-trump-fails-lead-russia-taliban-bounty-troops-column/3281661001/

"This was a very bad thing not to have taken action on this," Clark, who was twice stationed at Fort Carson during his three decade-plus military career, told The Gazette.'

1. Whether he knew or not is insignificant now. 9 days later and still nothing. So, 9 days and he has

taken no action.

6. I think Trumps lack of action shows that he did know because if he did not

then he could have simply said he did not and then taken action but he has not taken action against Russia.

2. "Call on fucking PUTIN?????? Are you fucking kidding me???

That's how we got into the treason in the first place.

TRUMP NEEDS TO RESIGN IMMEDIATELY.

3. don the con wants to eliminate the leakers not correct the problem.

4. But that's the reason Putin put Trump in office.

Well...at least one of the reasons.

Heh. "A very bad thing," huh. Understatement of the year?

5. Can't let him? He can't do anything about it.

He doesn’t dare even LOOK like he’s THINKING about doing anything about it. Or he would. His silence says more than all the bluster in the world could say.

He’s afraid of Putin. Deathly afraid.

7. trump going after someone who exposes the truth

Always is a clear indication he knew all along, and he'll get Barr to criminalize them to intimidate others from exposing him more. trump knew Americans were being targeted and killed for bounties from Putin. He isn't for making this country great , just the opposite for putin because he's likely going broke and can't make his payments to putin now, so he's trying to do things for him , and against this country. I think a lot more will be exposed on trump and putin very soon. trump and Barr are done, and will facing time in prison as they get cornered more for their crimes.

8. Yes he can get away with it. Ain't nobody gonna stop him.
