“ In other words, we told them we’d have their back.”
We lied.
What of it?
“We lied.”
Bill Clinton and Barak Obama lied.
Neither had the support of congress, both acted against the advice of senior congressional leadership.
Both acted as individuals who happened to be POTUS.
The USA did not lie to Ukraine.
But neocons would have you believe we did. Because they hate America as much as they hate Russia.
