(32,141 posts)Madame Secretary, now President, would have led the NATO effort to support Ukraine and Zelensky. Trump executed Putin's orders to start the NATO exit.. She had the guts to stand up to Putin, not a compromised minor-leaguer, like Trump. Bet we'd have had much better missile supply chain if Ms. Clinton was our President. Fucking Putin would have freaked out if Hillary was President in 2016. The rot would have been exposed 4 years sooner....maybe without an Ukrainian invasion.

(255,536 posts)With her experience, she knew what was going on in the world - not to mention all the players. And you're right, she knew the dangers of Putin - unlike the dictator-wannabe who still champions and admires him.

(255,536 posts)That's what I find so galling. We would be in a much different place right now - the entire world would - if the candidate who received the majority of votes in 2016 had taken office.

(255,536 posts)I generally avoid MTP with Chuck - but since Hillary was on, just this once it was more than worth it. And since this has turned into a faster moving forum lately, I cross posted it in the Hillary Group for posterity..

But Mad Vlad has crossed every imaginable red line since then. The only button he's entitled to anymore, is the Quit button.
