Putin was able to put a stooge in our White House, counseled by his friendly thug, Manafort. 
That, to me, is an act of war, and deserves a proper response, including arming Ukraine, the Baltic States, and the moving of some American naval forces into the Black Sea. Democracy is worth fighting for, something the repugnant Congressional Republicans seem unwilling to countenance. They are clearly just eager to steal from the poor and give to their super rich benefactors. I can only imagine what Ike or other Republicans of the patriotic era would have done. 
Me, I see this as every bit the challenge that putting missiles into Cuba was, and if that was worth risking nuclear war over, the traitor Trump is too.
