“I had thought when the Soviet Union was broken up, that Russians would cease to be the ten-foot-tall boogie men...Seems they are back, bigger and badder than ever.”
Actually, it became SAFE for the Left to go after Russia, particularly after they committed to protecting their children against gay recruitment (starting in 2014).
The Dems don’t seem to care that the 1600+ Russian thermo-nuclear devices, of which we have only minimal defense capability, can send us back into the pre-stone age, while our GPS-guided nukes fall harmlessly into the Pacific and Arctic Oceans.
The Democrats need to be CRUSHED.

You hit the nail on the head. THAT is when Russian suddenly became a brutal enemy.
