President Donald J. Trump made a great decision to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin last month in Helsinki, Finland. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) just returned from a congressional trip to meet with his counterparts in Russia to discuss better relations between the two nations. Right now, relations with Russia have become so partisan expect Democrats and Never-Trump Republicans to find reasons to criticize Paul’s diplomatic breakthrough that may lead to a historic era of better relations between the two countries.
While some irrationally scream of “treason,†the truth is that President Trump and Senator Paul’s efforts are an example of diplomacy that will have the impact of lowering tensions between two superpowers that have, in the past, been on the brink of nuclear war. Americans should applaud the efforts of Trump and Paul, because these efforts will help preserve peace.
