On Tuesday, failed vice presidential candidate Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) said on MSNBC’s “All In” that the vote that is coming up in Congress to set sanctions on Russia for their invasion into Ukrainian areas will expose whether or not Republican lawmakers are “appeasers” of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Forget the fact that Republicans under Donald Trump (Donaldus Magnus!) were tougher on Russian sanctions than any past administration, the useful idiot Kaine wants to refer to the Russia collusion hoax started by twice failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Guest-host Alex Wagner, filling in for Chris Hayes, said, “President Trump’s comments today calling Putin’s moves genius probably haven’t helped anything. You are really convinced that next week when you guys are back in session, Republicans are going to play ball with Democrats and effectively work to further the Biden foreign policy agenda, the national security agenda?”
Kaine responded, “Yes, I think there will be some who will follow Donald Trump. Donald Trump calling Putin’s move a genius move, a savvy move, you, know he couldn’t get a Nobel prize, so maybe he’s trying now for the Order of Lenin, or even better, finally, a Trump Tower in Moscow. But we will put our Republican colleagues on the board and see whether they’re Vladimir Putin appeasers or they’re standing up for the Western democracies. I believe that enough Republicans will stand against Vladimir Putin’s aggression that we will be able to coalesce around those sanctions packages. Again, I think Democrats and Republicans agree over what the package should be. The question was which should trigger it. There is no disputing now that the Russian recognition of Donetsk and Luhansk and moving in military assets in Ukraine, the trigger has been passed in Western democracies led by the United States have to stand up against it.”
And we are supposed to just ignore that the Biden administration has hyped up a Russian invasion for close to a year now, with the rhetoric growing exponentially over the last several months.
The Democrats and their boot-licking sycophants in the misinformation news media want you to forget that for decades, that party adored the Soviet system. They made every excuse in the world to appease the communists. Ted er, us, why couldn’t the bit▪︎h hold her breath Kennedy actually sent a messenger to the Soviet Rodina to let the Kremlin know that he and the Democratic Party would do everything in their power to make sure that Ronald Reagan did not get away with doing anything to hurt Russia and to stop him from getting reelected. That didn’t work out very well for the Democrats. Reagan won reelected in a historic landslide and with the help of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and Pope John Paul II, Reagan got that Berlin wall knocked down and crushed the Evil Empire without firing a shot.
It’s amazing how long the Democrats are willing to stretch out the use of the Russian collusion nonsense, especially now when Special Counsel John Durham is knocking that whole house of cards down with a sledgehammer. This was nothing more than Kaine playing his role of agitating Republicans in one of the thousand cuts of lies brought to you by the Democratic Party in an election year.
Then again, Tim Kaine has never uttered a single word that would force the listener to go run for a dictionary.
