CNN is having a big day.
The network has uncovered interviews Donald trump gave to Fox and NBC in 2014 in which the president-elect states that he agrees with Mitt Romney is our "Number one geopolitical foe", and makes statements supporting sanctions in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine.
"There are things we could do to hurt Russia economically"
"We should definitely do sanctions"
Imagine that.

That's a "big day"? They "uncovered" 3 year old interviews, sounds like the Clinton News Network is a little slow.

That, coupled with the Price story.
It's not really the point.
But, please, by all means ignore the topic of the thread.

I didn't ignore anything. This story would have been relevant three years ago.

I've come to understand that the events and issues of our time don't interest you and that you have no interest in thoughtful discussion.
You just come here to troll the site every couple weeks. You are not a serious mind.
I don't mind because you don't matter

It should be NO SURPRISE, Trump's position changes as the wind blows.
Unfortunately, as POTUS that is NOT a good thing.

It's not unusual though. Obama's stance on gay marriage changed as he was president, so did his promise that everyone would save $2500 a year on their health insurance. All presidents do that.

Obama even before his Presidency while running for his first term in the Illinois State Senate, Obama signed a questionnaire in which he answered that he "favored legalizing same-sex marriages, and would fight efforts to prohibit such marriages." The questionnaire came to light in 2009, days before Obama's inauguration.
Obama openly stated that he had qualms of how to square his belief in peoples rights to marriage vs his and others religious views on the subject. I suspect that divide is still with him.
As far as changing his mind about the savings on health insurance, there is a big difference between changing your mind and things not working out. I believe you know that too.
We can revist this whole thing in 4 years and just see how many of Trumps views change DURING his Presidency. I expect we will see a boatload.

You're right he didn't change his mind, he outright lied, and that is a big reason why democrats have lost so many seats in the House and Senate and Hillary lost the Presidential election.
