Obama outsourced US Syrian policy to Putin.

Let's assume Obama's words and actions are his and no some space alien posing as our President. It is obvious he didn't consider the Russians a threat. Oh but wait, when he thought the Russian boogeyman could be used as a partisan political weapon it became the most dire threat of all time.

All of the Democrat loving media, redundancy alert, has been drumming up fear of Russians ever since they received marching orders proclaiming "Russian meddling" responsible for Hillary's defeat. Poisoning the well for any constructive relationship with Russia doesn’t matter if it might undermine Trump. Democrat party over country, how transparently partisan.

The Russians have been an issue for years, even from Faux News and BigLiars who were critical of Obama not taking Russia on head to head and now, they're busy servicing Trump like those prostitutes in Russia.

So, the first argument the Republicans are gonna have is "polls suck." Okay, fine. Polls suck.

But for just a moment, let's assume this one is an accurate reflection of both 2015 and today. The overwhelming majority of Americans view Russia as a threat. Had all this Russia nonsense been out in full force prior to the election, you know... kinda like Comney did with the damned duplicate emails... there is an excellent chance we would have President Hillary Clinton instead of Chancellor Cheeto.

Of course Chancellor Cheeto doesn't want you to look at this evidence. Hell, he spent weeks denying it and only recently accepted the fact he was beneficiary of Putin's meddling. This evidence would harm his Presidency, establishing from the get go it wasn't/isn't legitimate.

But it's just sour grapes. Russian involvement isn't a big deal. American's don't view Russia as a real threat. Everyone does it.

As documented in my earlier comment the Obama administration considered Russia at worst a minor problem prior to concocting the fake news of Russian meddling in our election. Your crude sloganeering doesn't disguise that fact.

The open Question is are you able to engage in adult discussion on the Democrats campaign of newly discovered Russian fear mongering?

But you don't care and can't explain it and, instead, are willing to defer to foreign dictators via Chancellor Cheeto.
