Agreed... I mean there's something to it, but there's also something to the story about Qatar and Saudi bribing Hillary (excuse me, giving campaign financing) during the election. But I heard hardly anything about that, despite it basically being the same thing.

From what I see, some group desperately needs Russia to be the bad guy, so they're against any normalization of relations to the point of pathology. We're in the "red scare" era again, except this time it's the Democrats perpetuating the overblown fiction.
