The ease with which the #TrumanDoctrine/#containment was shoved down our throats is sad, given how easily critiqued it was when announced, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1947. Calling the #SovietUnion a global threat was laughable; they were made into an enemy because the US needed one.
Democrat presidents have a terrible legacy of supporting genocide and war.
