Lieu: ‘Romney Was Right When He Called Russia the Number One Geopolitical Foe’
Breitbart ^ | 02/21/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 02/21/2022 4:03:37 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) stated that the recent actions by Russia’s Vladimir Putin are further confirmation that Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) “was right” he said that Russia was America’s top geopolitical foe when he was running for president back in 2012, remarks that were criticized by then-Vice President Joe Biden.

While discussing Russia ordering troops into areas of Ukraine that they recognized as independent and Russia possibly moving more troops into the country, Lieu said, “[T]his action by Putin further confirms that Mitt Romney was right when he called Russia the ‘number one geopolitical foe.’ Now, depending on where their forces go, it could determine whether we enter a very large war or not. If Putin merely sends their forces into the existing regions in Donbas where the Russian-backed separatists already control those regions, that would be different than if he sent his forces into the regions of which the Ukrainian forces currently control. That could be very bad.”

Same Democrats were calling Romney “Hitler” in 2012.

And we know that Russia in Ukraine, which is not our circus and not our monkeys, is certainly not a diversion to distract us from China moving on Taiwan? The first means NOTHING to us and the later is a massive issue to our National Security because we foolishly let 90% of the advanced chips get sourced from their and 75% of total chips from east Asia.

Or was Xi and Putin getting together and making recent agreements just for laughs and cocktails?

Kind of like Mussolini going into Ethiopia was a prelude to Hitler’s antics.

We have an invasion going on from the South and a fascist police state to our north …I’m not to concerned about Russia. After the fall of the Soviet Union we should have dissolved NATO. Our number one geopolitical foe is China and even they pale in comparison to the biggest threat to the American People , our own corrupt government

The greatest threat to America is the Quisling Chinese Puppet Biden regime.

The USA under Biden, is an occupied Chinese colony. /spit.
