Now this is fucking important Congressional Democrats — you need to say while that would be great and everything, Putin needs to get out of the Ukraine and give back Crimea. Snowden is a spent asset — again this is important Congressional Democrats — Putin got everything he wanted out of Snowden already. Snowden is worthless compared to rolling back Russia in the Ukraine and Crimea. The sanctions have nothing to do with Snowden and they can’t be repealed.
There is blood in the water today regarding Flynn and Putin is trying to throw off the scent. So when Trump is out there taking his victory lap on getting Snowden back, Democrats have to question Putin’s motives and also say that Trump is getting played. Also Democrats need to say that Putin is still killing and trying to silence his political opponents like Vladimir Kara-Murza.
