maaan could it be any clearer the republicans hate our Ukrainian allies. this is a slam dunk easy win and still they'd rather capitulate to the russian overlords. you know, until 2016, the one thing in america you could count on was no politician would fuck with russia. republicans hated them because they used to be communist, democrats hated them because they're openly fascist. now we got a weird mix of republicans loving them because they're openly fascists and certain "leftists" loving them because they used to be "communist"
maaan we're all out here falling for the oldest trick in the book. a populist is out here lying about what's the plan and people are buying it. it's so sad
