The shitty thing is that we have a whole generation who has given up on Russia as a threat. The only thing they hear about the cold war is Joe McCarthy, and they think the whole thing was overblown. The CIA may be populated by paranoid and power hungry jerkoffs, but the KGB is just depraved. They used to treat their own Olympic athletes like criminals in waiting. I was happy to read a former CIA director endorse Clinton today. Even if that's a bridge too far for most national security types, I hope more have the foresight to denounce Trump ASAP.
