Vladimir Putins Popularity Is Skyrocketing among Repubs

Republicans love this authoritarian butcher.


Vladimir Putin’s Popularity Is Skyrocketing Among Republicans
The guy is accused of manipulating U.S. politics and enabling the killing in Aleppo, and his favorability rating goes up. Seriously?

This has nothing to do with abolishing government, just the parts of government that work for the citizens. This is about aid and comfort to a foreign adversary.

This is the constitutional crisis being discussed by so many. That's how I see it. He's establishing a new way of doing things. Laws don't apply to him because they don't pertain to the POTUS - when he takes office, that is. Not for the current office holder. Smells like anarchy to me.

since there would be no need for a leader.

That's not going to happen. He was elected to be a wrecking ball. As usual for Republicans, he's going to wreck all the wrong stuff while strengthening the more oppressive parts of government.

"Anarchy" does not apply here.

Always has been, but now they are embracing it by complimenting dictators, murderers, and assholes.

They call anyone else unpatriotic even for wanting diplomacy over war. Here they are doing this. Unbelievable.

These "people" are always drawn to an action or idea in direct proportion to how much suffering it causes.

Every "conservative" on earth is just a working part of the only real Satan there is.

I *suspect* that they are jealous that he is doing things over there in Russia that they wish that they could do over here.

Pity Ike came along and saved them. The GOP did not deserve that.
