You are going to keep hearing about this whether you like it or not because it’s going to be a major issue in upcoming elections for years to come. Conservative Republicans will keep raising the issue of how Obama’s cowardly weakness has encourages Neo-Soviet Russia’s revanchist aggression. Liberal Democrats will defend Obama’s record of failure and capitulation.
As it should he. Giving up Crimea is one good item to ridicule Obama sitting on the back of Putin’s horse being flexible. And giving up a couple more chunks of Ukraine will help that cause even more although it leaves a bigger mess to clean up when he’s gone.
I think you are right. My point is that we have real issues to worry about instead of making good nations into evil straw men. As a Republican, I am extremely upset with my party using Russia as a punching bag.
