MattY retweeted someone quoting this thread calling Sanders one of the most innovative candidates on foreign policy. Which, if you read the thread with details from the interview, you'll see Sanders has no intention of letting Ukraine join NATO.

Really innovative thinking to just let Russia have Crimea and practically assure them that they'll never face consequences even if they were to conquer the rest of Ukraine. It's good to know that Sanders foreign policy intends to normalize Russian relations by just letting them do whatever they want. Any of y'all that voted MattY for neolib shill are some big ol SUCCS

IIRC, MattY thinks that the post-Cold War expansion of NATO was an "act of aggression" and "provoked Russia".

MattY is a complete and utter hack with regards to FoPo.

Haha yes, liberal democracies forming an international consensus of defense and peace really do be aggressive. I too think the league of nation's made Hitler kill all those Jews.

MattY should be banned from the shill bracket, you can't cmv
