Dave Patterson: Trump Not Cowed by Russia’s Nuclear Saber Rattling
Labels: Dave Patterson, Dmitry Medvedev, Donald Trump, Russia, Vladimir PutinAmerica doesn’t tremble just because some flunky in Russia pushes threatening rhetoric.
Unlike his predecessor, when a Russian flunky threatens nuclear consequences, President Trump does not back down. He calls his bluff. Dmitry Medvedev tried to do just that. Who is Medvedev? He’s the former Russian president. Or, rather, he played the role while Putin pulled the strings and Medvedev’s mouth moved. In Texas, they refer to this as all belt buckle and no cattle. However, just so there is no mistake about who is who in the world, if you want to talk big, then you’d better understand your audience.
