More White House Quotes

What happened in the Ukraine is that the US supported essentially a coup d’etat in 2014, against the democratically-elected government of Ukraine.

If you look at that, and you put yourself in Russia’s position, and you say: Okay, the United States, our biggest enemy, is treating us as an enemy, has now taken over the government of a nation and made them hostile to us, and then started passing laws that are prejudicial to this giant Russian population.

We have to put ourselves in the shoes of our opponents. — Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Look, we understood we couldn't make it illegal to be young or poor or black in the United States, but we could criminalize their common pleasure.
