Yes. I know. If we had a real president in charge here, none of this would be happening in the first place. But remember, this is naturally more of a European crisis than it is a US crisis, and there may be some men left on the Old World. I mean, men and Merkel, God bless her.
A real president would have seen this coming and been at the Olympics to talk to Putin face to face while a team of state department officials worked on a diplomatic solution with both sides.
