I hope the Semenyo links were a wake up call for Gittens. The shyness & lack of intensity is unacceptable at our level. Being raw is one thing. Being timid is another. It’s on us to live/die with your mistakes, but do your part. PLAY WITH NO FEAR.

Nothing can be done about it; this reflects the level of political culture of a certain part of the American establishment. The American nation, the American people—America is a truly great country and a great nation if it tolerates so many politicians with such a low level of political culture” - President Putin
