Add Trump administration softness on Russia to the list of delusions - a list that also includes such notions as that gender is fluid, that two people of the same gender can get married, that the global climate is in a state of crisis, that upper income brackets aren't taxed enough, that there is systemic bigotry within the nation's law enforcement bodies, that health care is a right, and that Judaism and Christianity are irrelevant superstitions - that drive everything about the way leftists operate.This is simply stunning. At that same time that [Nicole] Wallace was saying all of this, the network’s chyron was literally declaring, “Venezuela braces for more turmoil as Trump admin supports opposition.” But perhaps we shouldn’t be too hard on Ms. Wallace.

Their own network had just finished covering the interview with Bolton where he was still suggesting that we might have to send in troops to help eject Maduro.
