Nixon and Reagan are turning over in their graves. An American presidential candidate who praises a Communist strongman, a man who turned back the clock of democracy? A man who has had journalists and opponents murdered? And who has invaded and massacred many Ukrainians? 
One wonders what is keeping GHWB silent. Is he such a slave to party loyalty that he puts it ahead of his country? 
Trump is walking a tightrope of villainy and betrayal of his country. Would anyone reading this trust this man to keep secrets shared with him by the CIA (part of candidate security briefings)? Imagine this scenario, "Hey, Vlad, get me those emails and I'll tell you some juicy security facts!"
Unbelievable that Republicans have fallen so low. When one thought W was the nadir, the bar keeps getting lower and lower.
