    The Republican party has been brought and sold to Putin and are traitors to the constitution and the republic. They want what Russia is: a controlled mafia state with religious underpinnings.

      The thing is, they’re not nearly tough or smart enough to survive in that environment. If they manage to succeed, they’ll instantly find themselves bum-rushed and overwhelmed, helplessly calling out for forces of order who are supposed to restore to them their rights.

        Correct. They arent smart enough to understand this. They are willing to sacrifice a lifetime with the boot on their neck as long as they get 5 minutes of seeing the boot on their “enemies” neck. Their enemy being their neighbors who are not sufficiently like them. They arent intelligent enough or understand history enough to realize the monster they create to attack their “enemy” will come for them at some point. Fascism is ever shrinking circles and must always manufacture new enemies.

        First they came for the trade unionists…
