It seems like everyone thinks that the US just gave away Crimea. My memory is that one of Obama's biggest mandates he was elected upon...was to get us out of endless overseas wars....since he inherited 2 major ones from W. Remember also that he won the Nobel Peace Prize....there was very little incentive for Obama to go to war...and I think a large part of our country was ok with that...at the time. He could have done more with his support of Ukraine but I think he was erring on the side of caution.
Too often we look at history with our current circumstances in mind. Obama had a fully different set of circumstances...
I didn't vote for Obama by the way...but my respect for him has increased a lot in the past 5 years....and I never hated him like so many of the MAGAs do.
