…the fact that Merkel knew that inviting Ukraine into NATO would trigger a Russian military response.

Rather than reject this possibility altogether, Merkel instead pursued a policy designed to make Ukraine capable of withstanding such an attack.

In 2016 Crooked was supposed to seal the deal on all of these types of things, by crushing the third blind mice the Republicans were trying to serve up, Jeb Bush.

Instead Trump the Mule came along and upset the Foundation’s calculations. Well, now that Trump was gone, the Plans went forward.

Error happened.
