    what is the G8 meant to be. Countries on friendly terms with one another? Russia is inadmissable

    is it meant to be the worlds leading economies? Russia is inadmissable. Russia is pondscum compared to China. and no one is barking about China being added to the G7/G8

    The G7 is fast becoming Obsolete. too

        Good point…

        But I see Muskovite more as the “attack dog” that Chump can send on his desired errands cause Muskovite can’t be impeached or otherwise held accountable.

        If indicted, Chump will just pardon him. Free reign to upset the apple cart on Chump’s behalf.

    How have republicans gone from cold war paranoia about Russia, to electing someone who is mouth open and eagerly awaiting Putin seed.

    I’m not saying all Americans are thick as pig shit, but clearly ignorance and poor education is doing wonders.

    From a nation to be admired to one for the purpose of ridicule.

    Sad

        yeah i guess, and i’m sorry for it. but there’s nothing i can do about it. i’m just sickened that everybody - whenever there’s any problem - jumps to concluding that it’s “russian” influence, or somehow else indirectly a consequence of russian influence. it keeps people from reflecting. i definitely do not encourage authoritarian regimes, but i hate that people don’t reflect and stubbornly repeat narratives that they are being fed by TV and other news. considering russia a country and talking isn’t “supporting”, it’s being diplomatic, and honestly, the world could use waay more of that. i don’t see how that’s a bad stance to have, maybe you educate me?
