I have to say, I think it still is.

Because as I mentioned, you know, without him, at least the Ukrainian position is, Kiev would be fucked already.

Because everyone else, I mean, Vance, the isolationist wing in the White House, would have forced Ukraine to give up Donbass by now, simply by cutting all security assistance and all intelligence, which is still ongoing.

So Rubio is sort of holding the line or seemed to be holding the line there.

And I don't know how it's going to work out, but it's utterly, utterly abominable and humiliating to watch him inhabit this sort of Renfield mode to Trump's Dracula because he doesn't really believe most of this stuff.

She's not a foreign policy politician.

She's trying to be, presumably because she also wants to run for president.

I was unimpressed, to say the least, especially because from media reports, she had prepared for months under the tutelage of Matt Duss, somebody I don't agree with, but I don't think he's a blithering idiot.

There's other things that happened while she was in Europe that weren't so well-reported.

She said the right things about Ukraine.

And about Russian imperialism.

But then she meets with Dylinka, which is a German far left political party, which is basically the left wing version of AFD when it comes to Moscow.

I mean, they're a Putinist German party.

Now, is she aware of that?

Probably not.

But she's like, oh, they're socialists like me.

I mean, what's not to like?

You know, so there's a lot of...

A lot of education, I think, necessary if she wants to really break out onto the international scene in that way.

Hillary Clinton's comments in Munich, much more to my liking because she has ample foreign policy experience.
