on the substance of starting a new cold war with russia, that wouldn't happen and putin would run and hide if the US did what she suggests. for 60 years, the US has gradually increased its hegemonic powers, up to the point where russia was hardly even a threat anymore. it was only after the obama administration altered course from the 60 years previous of administrations that the previously well subdued adversaries have started looking like players again.
For 25 of those 60 years the cold war has been over. We won, yet we kept kicking Russia while they were down for 25 years. Remember when Germany lost a world war and the victors kicked them while they were down? Were Roosevelt, Chamberlin and de Gaulle to blame for the resultant war?
