Yikes.

The part that confuses me is how she’s cribbing some of Hillary Clinton’s greatest hits while simultaneously despising Hillary Clinton b/c she uses those greatest hits.

The “WWIII/nuclear armageddon is right around the corner” stuff is highly reminiscent of the Clinton campaign’s insistence that Trump couldn’t be let anywhere near The Button b/c nukes!!!

The escalation of tensions with Russia obviously concerns me, but Russia lacks the economy, military sophistication and human resources to engage in all-out war with the US. Furthermore, Putin has no real interest in direct military confrontation with the US, nuclear or otherwise. If he did, he wouldn’t be syphoning off billions of dollars for personal use. Some of that could be used to modernize its only existing aircraft carrier.

Furthermore, if you click that link, you’ll see Russia’s military might pale in comparison to the US, but would almost certainly overwhelm many NATO countries. That sounds really scary until you realize such a turn of events would immediately bring the superior US military to bear and quickly resuscitate America’s standing on the international scene. Possibly even drive it to new heights.

That is the last thing Putin wants to see happen.

    Leans to the left, but sees reason on both sides if you get beyond the leadership. Hypocrisy and intellectual dishonesty are my pet peeves.
