Regan must be rolling in his grave.Other than Trump, I hadn't seen anything that could be construed this way - and Trump was taken out of context. Who else is doing it?I see a lot of Republicans condemning Joe Biden, which is arguably unfair, and calling Putin a thug, among other things, but I see none praising Putin or justifying him. I must be missing something.That infighting is something that emboldens Putin and others, independent of Trump nuttiness.
