I do not like Trump but I like the crazy Russophobes in the U.S. even less. As such, it is reaonable to try to put into context what is currently going on there. Trump, to his credit, was quite open about his desire to improve relations with Russia. What could be wrong with that? Well plenty for those whose bacon depends on Russia as enemy number one, e.g. the U.S. military and various lackey politicians like John McCain and Lindsay Graham. So this group was determined that wouldn't happen and now the Democrats, to their eternal discredit, are piling on for political reasons. It is well to remember that Obama/Kerry also tried to "cooperate" with Russia in Syria and they actually came to an agreement which was nullified within days by the U.S. military killing 70 Syrian soldiers in a bombing attack. Who runs the foreign policy of the U.S.? As much as I dislike Trump it would be better for everybody if it was those who are held accountable to the people.
