Ugh.


And what are the two major political opponents saying???

On one side, you have a head of state that was a comedian and sometime actor who is trying to rally support for world pressure to oust an invading army from his country…
On the other, you have a career KGB official who insists NATO is a threat and he needs a “buffer zone” against the Nazis and drug addicts of the west…

ETA: I know who I’d believe

You don't have to believe either one but the media and many in our government want us to think those are the only choices we have. Much the same way they present political candidates to us, in this hand is a rattle snake and this hand a copper head. Take you pick. We need to learn to refuse and force our own hand on them.
