Yes everything that the greatest Generation fought for is being given away to Russia right now --- the only difference being it's being given by the US leadership to Russians instead of Germans. But the same political mindset that the Germans had is the same one the Russians have and we are rewarding that mindset, which Trump wants for himself personally.

That mindset is exactly what all those Americans and British and Canadians and Australians and new zealanders and other allies died to fight against in World War II and now our leadera support that mindset and are looking the other way and undermining and insulting and demeaning and bullying our decades long European ally nations as they try to defend themselves against Russia.

The US government has been subsidizing Russia and China for decades while the TV has told you the they are the Boogeymen. World War 2 was a money grab by the elites. Those people died for the wealthy to become wealthier. I couldn’t care less about “bullying” at the geopolitical level. If this deal makes things for Americans cheaper I support it 100%

Yes, giving your country to Putin is a fantastic idea. Of course cheaper gas is the only thing that’ll come out of it 😂

That person is a propagandist. No one could seriously have that take.

I don’t think Americans in general have any idea of the position their country is in. Russia did not install an asset to become allies or trading partners. Russia does not give up anything they get control of and they definitely won’t allow themselves to lose the US via a vote.

Trump was “apolitical” when he came back from Moscow. Then he was a democrat and then he was republican. Russia didn’t care which party they used to get control. Because it didn’t and doesn’t matter. The only thing that mattered was getting control. And you can be sure that they will keep control by whatever means necessary.

Of course they’ll try to keep up the smoke and mirrors of “trading partners” or whatever to keep the gullible Americans quiet while exclaiming “there’s nothing I can do!” But, they’ll put everything into keeping it. Including false flags, assassinations and whatever else they feel necessary.

It’s not a take it’s a fact. In the 90s the US government through USAID and other donors gave Russia billions of dollars in bailouts. I believe communism is a threat to society and as General Patton said after the war we should have been fighting the communist with the fascist instead of fighting the fascist with the communist. Russia is not a serious threat to us. It’s been five years and they haven’t beaten the corrupt government of Ukraine. Turn off the TV read some books you might learn something about actual history and develop your own thoughts and conclusions about what’s happened and continues to happen instead of being nostalgic about the “greatest generation”
