Hillary Clinton may have been a hawkity hawk, and while she fit the "Nuclear Hitler" delusion more closely than Trump ever did, I still don't think it's fair to claim she was Nuclear Hitler. She was a terrible choice, but still not quite Nuclear Hitler. That term is being thrown around way too liberally these days.

They obviously had a plan to escalate a new cold war with Russia, and the fucking thing is still rolling along on autopilot.

Cold War 2.0 is backed into the cake, but that doesn't make either Trump or Clinton "Nuclear Hitler".

The Russian establishment need a boogeyman to maintain their grip on power and the USA and NATO are their top choices. Trump being nice isn't going to change shit, don't be naive. Unless the US cuts military spending the Russians aren't going to buy that you want to be friends and even if you do they probably will move the goalposts and paint you as their nemesis instead.

The Russians aren't scared of Radical Islam more than the US. Radical Islam can't wipe their civilization off the map, the USA can. Radical Islam ain't shit, Russia is far bigger threat to the US than Radical Islam and vice versa. Any co-operation against Radical Islam isn't stopping Cold War 2.0 from going down, wishful thinking bro. Radical Islam is the boogeyman of the week, not an existential threat, the US knows that, and the Russians sure as fuck know that.

You don't have to be scared of shit. That's our enemy. This other bullshit is used to destroy all of us.

Russia is an existential threat to the US, Radical Islam is a nuisance you don't want to let out of control anymore than it already is. Get your priorities straight, it's as if you think the situation is reversed.
