I've never said Romney was perfect, neither was Biden on your diversionary side tactic. The fact that you keep using straw man arguments proves that you have nothing or can't think on your own.

True or False it was obvious in 2012 that Russia was a geopolitical adversary?

True or false; was it obvious in 2003 that invading Iraq was the height of stupidity?

True or false; isn’t it LUDICROUS to say that Venezuela has EVER been an existential threat to the United States?

True is the answer to both questions. Why didn’t Romney know better?

And Iraq is a far more egregious mistake to have made. It’s the worst foreign policy decision in the last half century.

4424 dead soldiers and 32,000 wounded didn’t happen in Russia, did it.

Is Romney gonna apologize for supporting that stupid ass war?

The fact that you are changing topics and using strawman arguments is because you know I am right on this topic. You have nothing on this topic.

Thank you for tacitly admitting it!

Posters on this board who knew better, but had to "play for the team" argued that Russia wasn't a geo-political adversary.

Since 2016 Democrats have been frothing at the mouth about Russia and seeing Putin in every shadow.


Madeline Albright who openly mocked Romney during the 2012 campaign as being stuck in a bygone era has publicly apologized to Mitt Romney.

When will other Democrats apologize?

When will Obama and Biden apologize?
Is Russia a major geopolitical adversary? Sure. But it hasn't been the biggest one since the breakup of the USSR. China has held that distinction since at least 1990. The big difference is that we have much friendlier relations with China than we ever have had with Russia.

I suppose that Russia maintains the distinction of being the biggest adversary with which we have deeply unfriendly relations.
