    I mean, he basically was last time. So…yeah.

    Nothing the GOP is doing right now helps the United States.

    Just have to ask “who does it help?” And the answer over and over is: Russia.

    Edit: Maddow did a piece saying this exact thing (which was the impetus for my post initially). And I know WE all know that, but I hope more on air personalities keep saying it.

      There is a second angle to all of it, and that’s the Elon Musk/Peter Thiel/JD Vance angle, which also appears to be aimed at imploding the US but the goal there is privatizing government rather than helping foreign nations.

        That’s a good point.

        They want to help Russia but also line their pockets along the way.

        100%.

      • Destroying the economy of the USA: check
      • Deviding the country: check
      • Supporting rather Russia than Ukraine: check
      • Weakening the EU: check
