I'm going to assume that when Dems are in business with the Russians, that the resident ProgLibs are similarly outraged.
I mean, if it's not a sitting SOS brokering a huge natural resource deal for a Russian shell company, it's a former DNC chairman lobbying Capital Hill on behalf of Russian banks and energy companies.
Resident libs were surely enraged by that news when it broke.
Dem hero Barry Obama worked all the back channels to try and work with Russia, because of that post-election "flexibility". I am going to assume the resident New McCarthyites were absolutely losing their minds over that, and likely were thinking impeachment everytime the previous administration gave intelligence and bombing coordinates to the Russians, so they could bomb "our guys".
