when he was running against Barack some years back?

and MSNBC hosts responded with:

“He read about Reagan’s private, outside-the-CIA cabal of team-B zealots who were telling him that Russia had all the stuff they didn’t have so he could justify a giant defense budget,” Maddow said.

“I don’t know what decade this guy’s living in,” Matthews said. “Is he trying to play Ronald Reagan here, or what?”

its very interesting to watch both sides kind of switch positions up every few years depending on who's in office

You must be young. Once you've seen the switch happen a few times, it becomes boring, trite and pathetic.

Remember when Hillary sold the Russians uranium? But also that we were destined to go to war with Russia if she was elected?

And remember when Obama was caught on camera telling a Russian that he could be more friendly once the election was over? And Romney was using 1980s policy when claiming Russia was our #1 geopolitical threat?

And now Trump has direct ties to Russia and Obama is helping expose the treasonous actions of our current administration?

The media created most of this narrative. Just face it. We the people don't really know shite and never will.

Don't forget "airhead" Palin in 2008 when Russia attacked Georgia. She warned that they'd do the same thing to Ukraine in a few years and proggies ridiculed her for it.

I was gonna make a thread about this and I still might, but I'll mention it here for now.


I was reading up on the Kursk incident the other day. I wasn't really paying attention to the world at that time in my life, so it was an enlightening read.

It's mind blowing just how deceptive and obfuscatory the Russian govt and Putin were during that whole thing. Lied to basically everyone about everything, and kept doing it for years after.

Helps to keep in mind just what devious little shits slavs can be when discussing their role in the geopolitical stage.

You don't believe that the media would change it's stance based on the current narrative do you?
