being pragmatic

Have you ever been in a business meeting where someone with little knowledge is selling you down the river (like the salesperson who doesn't understand how long things take to develop just promising things you know you can't deliver). You're there kicking them under the table, but they just get more and more emotive and give away more and more.

I guess that's how the other 600 MPs felt about the guy you mention who talked about making war on the USSR:

As you know at the outset of war, USSR and Nazi Germany were allies. A little while later, this alliance was broken by Germany invading the USSR.

The battle of britain, d-day and so on was not a push over, but: Remember 90% of Germans died fighting the USSR. Imagine if that had never happened, and Germany had 20 times as many troops on the french coast.

Sun's position to me is not pragmatic. Where is their business model? Their future seems as clear as mud.
