Likewise, any evidence of quid pro quo is a deal killer. How is the 19 year old kid sitting right now in an M1 tank in Germany, pointed at Russia, supposed to accept a CiC beholden to Russia? Or how about our NATO allies? Our guys and gals in the Minuteman silos?

that's a good question....

so why don't you take your military experience and explain what you think should be done about it....

I am sure the 19 yr old in that Abrams Tank is seriously interested in your advise of how he should deal with that problem...

after you address his concerns, you can address those folks in Missile silos...
