We pulled out of the treaty because we needed missiles with longer range than the treaty allowed if we get a the war with China we are wanting.
So we accused the Russians having a missile of a longer range as a ruse.
But whatever excuse gets you through the night I guess…
I was thinking something just like that regarding Trump’s decision to re-start nuclear testing. We blame Russia, but the REAL REASON is to make sure our firecrackers will work against China.
It is clever and the media cannot get on Trump’s case, since it’s framed as ‘anti-Russia’, so the media (and the Leftists here) are trapped!
