“What a mess this Ukraine thing is. Never would have happened if Trump were still in the White House.”
I see this comment a lot, but I doubt it. Trump’s troubles with the Deep State began in spades when he tipped over the Ukrainian rock and all the little creeping things got exposed to the light. All those disgusting slithering slimy things are why nearly every Western politician and bureaucrat are willing to take us all to WWIII to keep hidden.
That’s a fair point. But it’s worth noting that Putin caused trouble during the presidencies of Bush II, Obama, and Biden. But he behaved while Trump was president. I don’t think that’s a coincidence.
