By Mark Grieco, Somerset.
Where the Soviet Union failed for decades with the threat of tanks and missiles, Trump accomplished in one week from the podium: the subordination of America to Russia. As someone that served in the US Infantry in Germany during the Cold War, I welcomed the collapse of the Soviet Union as the final triumph of America and NATO after generations of sacrifice. Trump’s behavior in Helsinki diminished that sacrifice.
Is treason at the heart of our recent defeat?
America was the backbone of democracies around the globe. Trump’s spineless defense of the Russian’s assault weakens the strength of democracies. NATO, a bulwark against Russian aggression, has been virtually shattered by Trump. His attacks on the free press and the intelligence community edges us towards dictatorship. Is this the American Greatness Trump promised?
