Welcome to HistoryWhatIf! We're here to explore alternate history scenarios in interesting ways.
-> In the 2012 Debates, Romney did great until he was asked who he sees as our greatest geopolitical foe to look out for. He claimed that we needed to watch out for Russia pulling some bullshit. Obama laughed at him and told him “The 1980’s called and they want their foreign policy back!”. Everyone after the debate jumped on that and laughed at him and then said Obama won debate….
-> (2) years later Russia annexed Crimea and conflict broke out in the eastern Ukraine under Obama/Biden administration.
->Fast forward to 2022 under Biden, Russia officially invades Ukraine
-> if Romney was president, how different would this timeline be?
Also!
-> if Romney had won in 2012 instead of Obama. Would Trump even have been president??? Trump really only ran for President initially as a Fuck You to Obama.
