In the run-up to the 2008 presidential election, Democrat candidate Barack Obama and his cronies spent a lot of time arguing that the Bush administration had been too rough on the Russians. During his first term and into his second, Obama bent over backwards to appease the Russians at every possible turn. His Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton was put in charge of he Russian Reset and, even travelled to Moscow with a prop “Reset Button” in an effort to restart diplomatic relations with the Kremlin.
Later, Obama himself was caught whispering promises to Putin’s puppet, Dmitri Medvedev, if the Russians would only play nice.
None of it worked.
Then in 2012, then-incumbent President Barack Obama mocked his GOP opponent, Mitt Romney, for daring to argue that Russia was our #1 geopolitical foe.
Romney wasn’t arguing that Russia should be treated as an enemy, but simply as an opposing force
