The DNC leaked emails through wikileaks is threatening to topple Hillary’s entire campaign while permanently damaging the Democrats, and while they’re yelling, “it was the RUSSIANS!!” I’d like to remind us all of the time Hillary mocked Romney for calling the Russians a threat!!

Blogger Jeff Dunetz posted this video last year:

Here are her comments criticizing Romney for identifying the Russians as a threat:

Well, without getting into the political campaign because that’s for others to comment on, I think if you take a look at the world today we have a lot of problems that are not leftovers from the past but are of the moment. We’ve just been talking about one, namely Iran. And in many of the areas where we are working to solve problems Russia has been an ally. You know, they’re in the P5+1 talks with us; they have worked with us in Afghanistan and have been very helpful in the northern distribution network and in other ways. So I think it’s somewhat dated to be looking backwards instead of being realistic about where we agree, where we don’t agree, but looking for ways to bridge the disagreements and then to maximize the cooperation.

Does “maximize cooperation” mean she handed over the passwords to the DNC email account? LOL!!

If you’ll remember, Obama also mocked Romney for being stuck in the past. And now they’re all yelling, “it was the Russians!!” like chickens with their heads cut off because Wikileaks’ hacked emails are making the party implode.

Now, in no way am I supportive of Putin sticking his despotic nose in our elections, especially when he’s helping out the buffoon Trump, but it IS a delicious irony that I just couldn’t pass up!!

The two parties have reversed course on Russia:

Hillary offered a reset button and Obama went over to send the message to Vladimir that he'd more flexible in the future.

Now the Republicans are pro-Putin and Newt Gingrich even said publicly we wouldn't defend Estonia (a NATO country that DOES fulfill its NATO defense obligations).

Talk about flexible! Hey, Vlad, you can have Estonia, in exchange for nothing. What a deal!

And yes, Republicans ARE pro-Putin now - the proof is the 'no arms for Ukraine' plank that the Trumpers put into the Republican platform.

All this stuff, scrapping NATO, offering up Estonia and Ukraine, isn't being done as part of a deal ... it's a freeby offered up to Putin. But the Trump family will likely get a Trump Tower in Moscow as a reward.

Trump can't borrow from American lenders after four banktuptcies. He can only raise capital from Deutschbank and Russian oligarchs. So when the oligarchs he talks to (all pals of Putin) badmouth NATO, he listens. That's what Trump's NATO trash talk is all about.
