Lindsey knows about playing games with foreign policy.

What amuses me is Russian analysis - so clueless on Graham. When invincible ignorance is a cornerstone of your political epistemology, figuring stuff out is a slog.

Why don’t we jusy restrict that list to officials who visit a competitor’s capital on the nation’s independence day?
Not that there’d be much of a difference, ya know?

Standard GOP tactic (misleading editing to make a point) used against Lindsey by the Russians.

Did GOP learn from the Russians, or vice versa?
