It’s a testament to America’s amazingness (or the lameness of the rest of the world) that the US can go from a rule-of-law democracy to a lawless dictatorship run by a mentally challenged man-child, and investors still continue to put money into that country.

It’s virtually impossible to think of another conflict where it’s this obvious who is in the right (Ukraine) and who is in the wrong (Russia). It’s like the “2 + 2 = 4” of international affairs. No one is dumb enough to blame Ukraine - unless, of course, they’re paid shills (like Tim Pool, etc.).

1.He’s ugly. 2. Strange how little is known about him, even basics like his age. 3. He supports slavery. Isn’t that the best line of attack, more effective than his views on democracy? 4. Shame on the Dems for losing to a coalition of hardline evangelicals and foreign, atheist, Silicon Valley types.
