Serious question...Why are these Republicans so pro-Russia? I don't get it.

[–] socsa@lemmy.ml 28 points 1 year ago

Because they envy Putin's oligarchy and the nationalism of the Russian population which makes them easy to control.

Make no mistake - these people want Gilead more than anything. I mean they literally keep saying it over and over again. They are domestic terrorists and enemies of the west. And everyone is going to pretend like this is a "difference of opinion" until it is too late.

Money. There's no way Russia/rich people/criminals aren't playing with these people. My conspiracy is that these people are so dumb they don't know that they are being used or they are just really narcissistic.
