Sorry that was my bad. I had Bill buy up all the dark meat and send it to my house. I banned white meat from chickens and turkeys in particular from my house years ago.I’m guessing it’s probably too late for much better relations with Russia. I do remember, however, years ago, when Russians were virtually starving, particularly for meat protein. It was right after the fall of Communism. At the very same time, there was a tremendous glut of poultry in the U.S. (that industry has major cycles) particularly of dark meat. Interestingly, Americans prefer white meat, particularly in fast food, and it’s hard to get rid of the legs and thighs proportionately. Bill Clinton could have had the U.S. buy up the excess dark meat for an absolute song and shipped it to Russia, and some encouraged him to do it. But he wouldn’t. That was a golden opportunity to enter into a better relationship, but it passed, and Russians suffered through a very bad time with no good reason to think well of America and significant reason not to do so.
Jokes aside, I find this revelation of one of Trump’s top advisors cozying up to Russia right before setting their platform as disturbing. And to my mind it lends more credence to the implication that Russia is behind the Democratic hacks given the timing.
