That is extremely confusing. Hillary and Obama were praising Putin up to after Obama was reelected. Hillary did her idiotic 'reset'. Obama said he would be more 'flexible' with Russia after the election. There were Soviet Flags flying outside the DNC convention.
So, When Obama/Hillary like Putin, it is a good thing. When Trump likes and has an alleged relationship with Putin, it is bad. I am not pretending to be confused. I am really actually confused.
For the last 50 years the American Left has been selling us that Russia is the best form of government in the world. Now, it is not? Elizabeth Warren said that her greatest hero is Mao zeDong for crying out loud, a man who is responsible for the deaths of tens, if not over a hundred million people.
I mean, which is it? Is Russia bad or good? Is China bad or good? Is Communism bad or good? It would seem that the American Left can't seem to make up their mind. It is all mixed signals except when Trump is involved. Then no matter what side he picks, whether he likes Russia or hates Russia, in either case he is wrong and is a traitor. That is the only consistent fact about the position of the Left.
