Our relationship with Russia is worse now than it has ever been, and that includes the Cold War. There is no reason for this. Russia needs us to help with their economy, something that would be very easy to do, and we need all nations to work together. Stop the arms race?— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 11, 2018
Politico: Trump: Our relationship with Russia is 'worse now than it has ever been'
The U.S. relationship with Russia has dipped to its lowest level ever, President Donald Trump said Wednesday, suggesting that the Kremlin could reap the benefits of an economic boost if it were to agree to “stop the arms race.”
“Our relationship with Russia is worse now than it has ever been, and that includes the Cold War. There is no reason for this,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “Russia needs us to help with their economy, something that would be very easy to do, and we need all nations to work together. Stop the arms race?”
Later Wednesday morning, the president blamed the poor relationship between the two countries on the ongoing investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller into possible collusion between Trump's 2016 campaign and Russia.

Do we have B-52's in the air on alert 24x7? No
Do we have ICBM's with Russian targets loaded to the guidance computers? No
Do we have 300,000 US troops in Europe facing off at the Fulda Gap? No
So we aren't that bad. It's as bad as the worst diplomatic relations I can remember and note that back then it was the US playing good cop to Russian and Chinese animosities. Now they are, for now, allied against the US. This is a hair not worth splitting IMHO.
I agree compleatly with Trump.
