of course when this question was raised by me several years ago as Putin made Obama his little bitch....the responses from the left were "well what do you want a war with Russia?" Very typical, "the GOP are sabre rattling" response.
To be clear, Obama policy towards Russia was terrible (he was Putin lil bitch...its well stated history at this point) and the fact he allowed them to fuck with the elections made it worse. Even when Obama and the administration knew Russia was fucking with the elections Obama told agencies to "stand down"-again, this is FACT.
What to do now?...there are many options, but Trump is isolating so many partners.
Ideally, somehow bringing in Russian who are responsible for election/DNC hacking would be ideal. Putting a face to this shit. Parading them would be great.
I think aggressive actions online against Russian security around election period to demonstrate consequence for previous actions.
Trump and the administration could reach out to Poland and Ukraine making commitments to them. Working with Ukraine to end the war there.
I think on the heals of a NATO conference where Trump seemed to make headway in getting them to kick in more money...announce a strong security deal with the countries that are committed to doing just that.
Germany energy policy. Is there a way Trump and the administration to get a trade deal that German buys less energy from Russia and more from other sources? Map that deal against other Balkan states who have energy deals with Russia.
