because i don't think we'll be talking about president obama's failed russian policy 30 days from now. we're not going to be talking about the red line in syria or the withdraw of missile defense from poland and the czech republic. we're not going to be talking about the reset button or even this june when this originally came to the president, the harassment of our diplomats, he was originally presented in june with sanctions options and president obama rejected that. so i agree with senate majority leader mcconnell and speaker ryan, it's too little, it's too late, better late than never, and that russia is not our friend. i'm quoting senator mcconnell on this, specifically. the hawks on this have always been republicans. mitt romney tried to make this an issue in 2012 and president obama dismissed him saying, the '80s called and want their foreign policy back. i don't think donald trump wants to get in the wreckage of that burned down house. >> so hugh, if you think obama's policies have failed with russia in particular, and as you were saying, that you've taken a position, a similar position
