    We can’t do business with genocidal dictatorships and expect to walk away unscathed.

    Yeah, we learned not to do business with genocidal dictatorships after ww2… Except all those dictatorships that we funded to kill leftists.

    But then we learned not to do business with genocidal dictatorships after the cold war… Except all those dictatorships that we funded to buy oil.

    But this time I’m sure we definitely learned not to do business with genocidal dictatorships even when they align with our policy goals.

      Let’s take the win. This time we heed history.
