"There is no way of predicting how the millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries would react to their country being abandoned. Ukrainians have generally “behaved well” and are “very grateful” to those who sheltered them. They will not forget that generosity. But it would not be a “good story” for Europe if it were to “drive these people into a corner”."

He did, though.

"Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing, I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press,"

    Yeah I remember that as well, and I was surprised that it didn't even move the needle during the investigation. The investigation was looking for direct enlisting of help from russia as an agreement. Him saying "Russian, if you're listening..." was flippant and didn't prove what the investigation was looking for. It sucks, because if a hostile nation is rooting for one candidate over another due to the chaos and division he'll sew, that's a very bad sign. Here we are years after his 1 term, and we're still fractured in a way no one in living memory has seen. This sucks, I have no idea how to even begin to heal the damage this moron has caused.
