It's pretty hilarious, really.
Pro-Trumpy conservatives: of course Putin wouldn't have tried this under Trump; he wouldn't have dared.
Trump: Hey, brilliant move on behalf of Putin. Really smart, a lot to be admired there.
(Of course Trump then claims Putin wouldn't have done it if he was President - that is just his basic incoherence and lack of self awareness kicking in.)
As noted on Twitter:
True.
I note in the Australian Christofascist Right, the shell of a former conservative who years ago could write well and cohesively confirms his descent into wingnut madness. Currency Lad and his admirers cannot be debated or reasoned with, because facts stopped mattering to them years ago* - and when democracy gives effect to cultural changes they don't like, the problem they perceive is with democracy itself. Hence he's decided the whole of Western Europe is "not my friend". I get the distinct impression he thinks Putin rolling in on tanks over the entire continent would be only mildly regrettable, and overall a good thing for their culture war objectives: after all, like them, he doesn't like the gays, is not keen on abortion, promotes conservative Christianity, doesn't think vaccination in any sector should be compulsory; and and is highly motivated to burn every last bit of fossil fuel.
The only amusing thing about this is that their extremism means they are left without any political party to follow - everyone has failed them - and they can't see that the problem is that they're the ones who have created the problem by moving into a their own fantasy world.
* the list of false or risible factual claims in that post is just so long - and it doesn't matter to any of his admirers.
It is so sad.
ReplyDeleteThey do not even pretend to like democracy
It just depends what sort of mischief Trump was letting the Jews get up to in the Ukraine. It very much looks like he was clamping down on some of the shenanigans.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very good move by Putin. There is no aggression since it was the Jews in the State Department who conducted the coup in the Ukraine around 2013. So the aggression is all Jewish. Not Putin's.
Since the colour revolution was perfected by Obama, the same people who took over the government in the Ukraine can also be inferred to have taken part in putting the fake-Biden regime in power. The whole place is a fucking synagogue. Its so disgraceful to have all these degenerates running things, when no-one will vote for them.
The Jews are therefore the aggressors in both countries and nothing Putin has done can be described as aggression.
