"Weak" and "Strong" have been the operative words in Republican politics since FDR. I think the terms "Chaotic" and ""Thoughtful" may be more accurate. Imagine if you had an inexperienced president who had no foreign policy experience at the helm now! Ukraine would not have the support of ALL of NATO (especially the US) and their territory would be taken by Putin without a whimper...1930s Europe all over again.
Thanks, Maryjane. One statement says so much: GOP messaging that Rump's "positions" are strong, but Biden's "actions" are weak.
As I follow developments, I'm particularly appalled that Russia appears ready to lay seige to principal cities to force Ukraine to surrender. Given the horrific suffering Russian civilians endured due to seiges of their cities in prior wars, the use of those same tactics by Russia defies description.
Extremely timely and helpful. This morning’s WashPost has a great article about Fox News military reporter Ms. Griffin. She seems to be the only honest military reporter they have, and she has had to spend the last week countering the Pro-Putin propaganda rife across Fox “news”.
