I certainly am ignorant of made of things…
Romney was the one who campaigned on being stronger towards Russia. Obama was the one caught on a hot mic talking about working with putin.
And then Obama immediately moved to organize the coup of Ukraine and escalate with missiles at the Russian border. I’m not really sure how that paints him as soft on Russia.
Obama did initially try to work with Putin in the first term. Then Russia refused to import US chicken, because Big Ag refused to stop washing them in bleach. And after a highly publicized abuse case, Russia cut off adoptions to the US, and the adoption lobby started pushing for regime change. Plus, the US gas companies wanted something done with the Russia-Europe pipeline competing, which Biden dutifully destroyed.
