Remember the days when Republicans

[BlueKota]

used to tell we liberals, "if we didn't like this country we should move to Russia," and also say things like "better dead than red?" My how things have changed. Wonder how some of those old guard Republicans who have since passed on, would feel about their party now?

I remember my Uncle by marriage, a World War II veteran, told me when I was studying it in college, that a lot of the soldiers wanted to take Stalin and Russia down too because Stalin was as bad and in some ways worse than Hitler. Once Germany was defeated even though they were technically our allies back then, they were hoping to invade Russia, but requests to do that were denied.

I can't imagine what Uncle Don would make of a U.S. President playing footsies with a former KGB officer now a Dictatoral leader himself?

I feel like tsf and his minions have betrayed everyone of those WWII vets, by now standing for everything they fought against. My 4 Uncles who fought in that war all made it home safe but I am still offended on their behalf, as well as their fellow soldiers, especially the ones who didn't make it back.

4. The current Don for sure.

I doubt my late Uncle would be pleased to share a first name with the asshole.

3. It's sickening. My dad was in North Africa with Patton's army. He would despise the traitor as much as me.
