Yes the narrative has been twisted by the liberals who are just upset that GOD and the American people (especially in swing states) disrupted their plans.
To play devil’s advocate though: Trump made himself vulnerable during early debates when he explained his hope to improve relations with Russia and in complimenting Putin’s leadership.
Objectively speaking its only right that we have a leader who wants to better relations with them!
But talks of “reset” “peace” is unfortunately interpreted as a weakness by Russian elites and gave fodder for American media to pin Trump as a Putin-sympathizer or enthusiast.
In actuality, the corrupt interests of Russian elites were far better served under Clinton/Obama than under Trump...
And to be frank: it may have taken Trump sometime to see what Russia is really about.
I even went to Russia with a far more favorable impression of its govt...changed my mind after living there LoL.
Hi regulator! I am pinging you to this interesting piece written by a former historian of the Novosibirsk Academy of Sciences. It shows the futility of blaming the West for the 1990s Russia stuff...
