There was no mystery as to what Trump’s position was on Russia. Even as he maintained sanctions, his actions played a major role in giving Putin legitimacy and respect on the world stage because of his rhetoric as well as his actions toward Ukraine. While many Republicans might have been unhappy with this turn of foreign policy, he still had a strong base that supported him for reelection in 2020. That is the single measure that really counts. The bottom line is the fiercest of Republican Russian hawks are likely among those who stood by him going into the 2020 election.
TRump brought the WAR ON!!!!!!!!!!
