I'm certainly not suggesting that "dems tack right". That won't win this war. Political maneuvering only matters in an environment of legitimate elections. I'm planning to read and support all reasonable anti-Trump, anti-Russian sources until Mueller wins the battle, because that's the only way such an environment can be restored. I plan to support political parties in Canada that are resolutely anti-Russian.

This war isn't about American politics, any more than the Battle of the Bulge was about Belgium.
