Confronted with the full , disturbing array of evidence indicating Trump ’s unseemly coziness with a hostile foreign power , the Republican nominee ’s left - wing sympathizers revert to a timeworn tactic : accuse his critics of “ McCarthyism . ” While this accusation was once hurled at right - wing demagogues who flung irresponsible accusations of dual loyalty at liberals , today it ’s being hurled at liberals who cite very real evidence of dual loyalty on the part of a right - wing demagogue .

Vanden Heuvel ’s husband Stephen Cohen , a former professor of Russian Studies at Princeton and New York Universities , has long been the Putin regime ’s loudest apologist in the United States , and so it ’s predictable that he would join his wife in rationalizing Trump ’s alarming amenity with Moscow .
