This is no "weak" response from an "age diminished" President
https://signalpress.blogspot.com/2022/04/president-biden-makes-republican.htmlThere's something that comes out of the White House almost every day that blows holes in the GOP muttering about President Biden's age being a "diminishing factor," and that his approach to foreign policy, particularly with regard to Ukraine, is "weak."
That's laughable and ridiculous, not only in light of their own record of support and praise of Vladimir Putin, and their chasing around after a genuinely "diminished by age," demented, insane former President 45, but in light of what is happening just about every day.
Many of these duplicitous Republican wannabees had nothing but high praise for Reagan's bold bashing of Russian autocrats, particularly Mikhail Gorbachev. Nor was Reagan all that kind to Gorbachev's predecessors, either. President Biden hasn't minced any words about Putin, ever. Not as Vice-President when he moved into the Donbas and into Crimea, and certainly not now. This is a very calculated and edgy foreign policy move. Putin has rattled the nuclear sabre and let that make up for the lack of military prowess his army has shown as it retreats, regroups or whatever you want to call it. President Biden is pushing back, showing no fear of the threats and making a few of his own in the form of devastatingly accurate intelligence and the ability to make a few phone calls and further debilitate Russia's economy.

(3,888 posts)The Republicans who are on the record as pro-Putin are way out on a limb that's being cut off.
So they've become so buried in their political ambition that they don't care about foreign interference in our election as long as it benefits their guy. And they are on the record, several of them, saying they support Russia and they don't care. How is it even possible to be a human being, see what's been happening and not care? That tells us exactly what we are dealing with in the GOP. Anyone who could look at that and still think Putin is a peacekeeper and a "genius" is pure evil.
Ukraine is going through this once again. How is it that human beings cannot learn from history and figure out how to live in peace? We can't ever take our liberty for granted, after seeing how hard the Ukrainians are fighting for theirs, and how much they appreciate what they have. We need to vote every single Republican who isn't completely on board with President Biden's statement about Putin being a war criminal, and that he shouldn't be allowed to continue in office. Not supporting that? Get out.
