Will speech be prologue? Or substitute?
Putin said it was “madness” to allow countries like Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia to leave USSR.
Trump also opposed breakup, accusing Gorbachev of weakness & praising Communist China for showing strength in massacring students.
Coincidence?

2) In 1987 Soviet diplomats & KGB arranged a Moscow visit. On his return, Trump spent $100,000 on full-page ads criticizing US foreign policy on “why America should stop paying to defend countries that can afford to defend themselves."

3) Trump’s love affair with authoritarianism & dictators is nothing new. Trump saw breakup of Soviet Union as weakness, praised communist China for massacre at Tiananmen, & praised China’s Xi for becoming “President for life.”
