Russia is NOT our friend. Remember that Obama wanted some more time before he would make new arrangements with Putin/Russia.
Wonder just what those “arrangements/leeway” were? I call it treason.
Probably more things in line with killing the F-22 early and dumping money and time into boondoggles like the F-35 and the stupid LCS programs. Bush did damage of his own to our forces as well, so essentially we’ve been marking time for the better part of two decades and are desperately having to play catch-up now.
