That headline pretty much says it all. Obama placed some pretty significant sanctions on Russia; no response from Trump. Putin announces that he will forgo retaliatory measures for now and wait for the Trump administration (which he presumably will find much more pliant and cooperative). And then, within 24 hours of the announcement of the sanctions, Trump strikes with his itchy Twitter finger:
Great move on delay (by V. Putin) - I always knew he was very smart!And he pinned the tweet. I didn't know what that meant, so I looked it up and found that when you pin a tweet, you're pinning it to your Twitter profile page. It's kind of like adding it to a "greatest hits" list. So Trump is particularly proud of his borderline treasonous relationship with Vlad.
The tweet got a lot of negative response from the public -- but the Russian Embassy must have liked it, because they retweeted it.
