Putin? Isn't that special?

Jill Stein is not a progressive. She never has been. Dennis Kucinich is not even relevant in today's politics. Masha Gessen is a pretender.

Perhaps they're all pretenders.

Stripped down to its essentials Gessen's argument is that we shouldn't explore Trump Putin ties because Trump might nuke Russia to prove he doesn't like Putin.

I actually saw Tucker Carlson ! make the same argument. Actually it's a routine rhetorical devise of the anti-anti Trumpers. He had Eric Swalwell on his show and he asked him if wanted to send long range bombers to bomb Russia for meddling in our election.

Russians gonna meddle. I am more concern about Americans who welcomed, encouraged, and nurtured their meddling.

But she's still pissed at the DNC for not having enough debates scheduled, and thinking Sanders should give it up in April, after he'd lost his chance.

to steal votes from Hilary.

This is just my speculation but the photo of her with Flynn in Russia is awfully suspicious.
