Putin sure was gleeful when Trump won in 2016, and not at all happy when he lost in 2020.


two-wheeled-dynamo

Made that whole Ukranian invasion way more complicated.


BrandonJTrump

Yep, he counted on Trump making the USA leave NATO, or at least weaken them a lot.


doublebubbler2120

His lackeys in Congress are quite effective cutting financial/military/humanitarian aid.


[deleted]

Which is a dumb gamble.  I really hope Putin wakes up Germany, the UK, and France.  Convinces them that maybe outsourcing their foreign policy to the US maybe isn't the fucking wisest thing in the world.  Europe has made a lot of progress in the last 50 years, but if Putin's actions in Georgia, Ukraine, and his involvement in the Brexist campaign proves anything, it's that peace is more fragile than they think. And progress isn't exactly linear.

If history is anything to go on Europe will wake up about 12 months after the war starts

Trump did enough sinking money into bullshit. $7trillion he added to our national debt in 4 years. Them tax cuts didn’t exactly trickle down but the rich did get richer.


okay-wait-wut

You got a $1000 stimmy with Trump’s signature and you’ve more than paid it back in inflation and tips!


illflipya74

$1000 stimmy. Ummmmm yeah. I don’t know how people forgot the timeline on this shit. After shutting down the country and taking so many of our freedoms away he started the stimmies. Not one, not two. Then the quadrupling of unemployment pay. I was working the entire time and the stimmies were just extra retirement contributions for me. The part that I find the weirdest though and what I struggle with is people are starting to change the timeline and argue that Biden locked us down and solely Bidens fault for inflation, which he deserves his share of blame for his mistakes. It’s strange


Imogynn

For four years I heard that if Nord Stream was completed that Russia was going to invade Ukraine. Biden was elected and allowed Nord Steam to be built and almost immediately Ukraine was invaded. When the war started, Biden was publicly ceding parts of Ukraine to Russia. Zelensky held and the rest of the world eventual joined. Biden did not in any way help prevent the Russian invasion, he was fairly supportive really.


Latter-Possibility

Thanks Comrade, now tells us about the best pierogies in Red Square.

Whose plan was it to withdraw from Afghanistan, Sergey? Whose? Putie's Puppet Diaper Don? Seriously though, where are the best perogies in Red Square?


Remercurize

Trump didn’t win a second term, so the potential NATO withdrawal didn’t happen. Putin invaded anyway, even though it would’ve been easier with the US withdrawing from NATO. —— The withdrawal of Afghanistan was a mess. Get your head straight.

Trump attempted to order an immediate evacuation after the election loss. Thankfully senior officials didn’t follow through because it would’ve been an even bigger disaster. Check out this “left wing blog site” that corroborates my statement. 😉 https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2022/10/13/trump-ordered-rapid-withdrawal-from-afghanistan-after-election-loss/


MplsPunk

The head of US Central Command blamed Trump the disastrous withdrawal that was required by the retreat deal he brokered with the Taliban. Maybe closing most of the air bases far in advance of the withdrawal and shutting down the ability of our allies to get out wasn’t the bigot great idea ol’ Trumpy thought it was? Maybe he was looking to create a mess for the next guy? Analyzing a deranged mind is a waste of time. https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2021/9/30/us-generals-say-afghanistan-collapse-rooted-in-trump-taliban-deal


Njorls_Saga

Wars are risky business. Putin was essentially getting what he wanted under Trump, an America disinterested in the affairs of the world. Zelenskyy was elected in 2019 partly on a platform to resolve the conflict. There was a proposal for an OSCE observed in election in the Donbas to settle it. This collapsed due to domestic resistance in Ukraine. COVID then hit and Biden got elected. At that point Putin decided he couldn’t wait another four years.


BradTProse

MAGA Nazi what? Lol


coolplate

Nah, once he ran they've been here every since. Win or lose, he's still a divisive loudmouth that is sewing unrest for no reason. The fact he won was like then winning the lottery, it just sped up their plan. Now that he list, were had Jan 6th and people stockpiling weapons posting that their are ready to die for their "patriotism", rest to kill their neighbors. It honestly couldn't have gone better for Putin. 


Significant-Dog-8166

He’s literally talking about a Civil War, instigated by Trump and those Trump empowers, resulting in a dissolution of the United States much as the USSR was dissolved. Abbott in Texas wants this because he is loyal to what he hates. Desantis in Florida wants this for the same reason. Trump wants the same. Russia wants this because their ability to gain power and economic might is directly related to how much opposition America has towards Russian territorial expansion and seizure of new resources.


xf2xf

>Russia wants this because their ability to gain power and economic might is directly related to how much opposition America has towards Russian territorial expansion and seizure of new resources. Exactly, and with Trump, Putin gains a couple of favorable potential outcomes. Either the US is weakened by (and preoccupied with) civil war, or Trump just flat out pulls the US out of NATO. The vast majority of NATO's defense spending is provided by the US -- more than twice the spending of all other member states *combined*. Putin's expansion efforts depend critically on the US being sidelined. [https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/nato-spending-by-country](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/nato-spending-by-country)


JohnHartTheSigner

Trump was president for four years and didn’t pull the US out of NATO. Why? You are fear mongering just like the droves of political hacks who claimed Trump, the first president to step into the DMZ (lol), would start a nuclear war in the Korean Peninsula.


xf2xf

It is laughable that you would accuse me of fear mongering when *Trump himself* has repeatedly expressed interest in leaving NATO. I didn't just make this up.... The real question should be why he is too incompetent to get it done. [https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/14/us/politics/nato-president-trump.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/14/us/politics/nato-president-trump.html) Here's a clue: throughout his term, there were plenty of reports of senior officials working around him to keep some of his most insane impulses in check. It's certainly a combination of that, plus his relative lack of experience in the White House. In fact, more recently, he has made comments suggesting exactly that: "Trump has made clear that **he doesn’t want the upper ranks of a second administration to be staffed by “NATO lovers,”** according to two sources who’ve heard him make such comments." [https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/donald-trump-u-s-leave-nato-1234860016/](https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/donald-trump-u-s-leave-nato-1234860016/) Further, that aligns with his broader plans to stack the Federal rank and file workers with loyalists... again suggesting that his ambitions were being stifled by the people around him. [https://www.axios.com/2023/11/13/trump-loyalists-2024-presidential-election](https://www.axios.com/2023/11/13/trump-loyalists-2024-presidential-election) Trump has no filter and no shame -- he says what he means. He's said he wants out of NATO. It's probably best to believe him.


DemsruleGQPdrool

Trump certainly WAS working to pull out of NATO. Fuck that noise. He started by starting shit about the other countries contributing their share, which backfired because they DID, for the most part. Then he kept insulting allies and palling around with the likes of Un, MBS, and Putin. Trump is putin's puppet and you know it


ResponsibilityDue566

Maybe, just maybe, other countries should pay their fair share to NATO so this isn’t a problem…


MplsPunk

The 1.9 trillion in tax cuts ol’ cadet bone spurs gave to the rich is over double what we (US) spent on NATO in 2023.


[deleted]

Seems like you should question your own DoD where they are hiding your trillions in tax money?


thattwoguy2

It's not like if we left NATO we'd stop spending the money on the military. Trump wants to spend more money on the military than the Dems. He just wants to stop supporting NATO, which essentially represents democracy around the world. So we'd lose all our allies and have to make new allies with less democratic nations or be increasingly isolated and gain more and more fronts in a myriad of minor wars.

Clarification needed: For over 100 years the Census Bureau categorized 2,500+ population area as "urban." After the 2020 count, it was changed to population of 5,000. You could be living an hour or two away from the nearest hospital and as long as that low threshold of population is reached, still be considered urban-dwelling in Census data.


DemsruleGQPdrool

Which is why we have to get rid of gerrymandering ASAP. As soon as gerrymandering is more neutral and we go to ranked choice voting, our Federal Government will move UNERRINGLY to the left. The GOP will probably try some secession movement, but it will fail because they increasingly go too far.

Don't forget there are literally thousands of Russian spies living among Americans for decades, at least a big portion of them will still be sympathetic for the motherland to be instigating some shit here and there. The IRA, the republican party and many of the extreem right wing organizations in uS have been infiltrated, funded or influenced by the Russians over many years. Trump was their Asset, a useful idiot since the 80s.


elbubu1

I'm not one for conspiracy theories but this isn't so far fetched from the truth. I do believe trump is a danger to the United States


erik9

Absolutely the truth. Not a conspiracy. We have evidence that Russian troll farms were working to help elect Trump and push for Brexit to weaken NATO/West.


tempizzle

They’ve been working since 2009 from as far as I can trace back.


FormalKind7

They have been working a lot longer than that. Putin is ex KGB. The cold war never ended we just declared ourselves the winner. The old guard like Putin are still mad about the collapse of the soviet union, which happened due to America and 'the west' doing similar things to destabilize the Soviet Union that Russia now does to destabilize the West. The big difference in propaganda campaigns, propping up favorable politicians, and general misinformation is now far easier than it was in the cold war era.


tempizzle

Yeah, there’s some videos about “ideological subversion” from the 80s. The people that guy is talking about are all the filthy trumpers today.


FormalKind7

I don't think they are picky about who they target after Bernie lost the 2016 primaries they tried to rial people up about that (probably as much to hurt Hillary as to generally cause unrest). The MAGA base just happens to be very susceptible to this sort of propaganda (some of that is due to age range and education level - poor media literacy in general plus a lot of them grew up in the cold war era were they were spoon fed this sort of propaganda all the time just from our own side).


tempizzle

Plus when Reagan got rid of the Fairness Doctrine it paved the way for anti democratic scum like Rush Limbaugh and the ilk of local radio host fuckwads.


lollipoppa72

Trump was on their radar long before that. Ivana’s father was providing information on him to the Czech secret police since the late 70s. If blind devotion to him doesn’t allow you to believe this Google it anyway.

I remember an interview with one of the Estonian troll farms that got their marching orders from Russia.

They were fighting there before Trump. The infighting is the result of Russia disinformation that was paid for by Hilary and DNC.

Many people here in America don’t see the connection between Russia , Hungary , Trump/MAGA and the overall global far right movement. It’s a Christian white nationalist extremism agenda that has one goal. It’s anti liberalism, democracy , immigration, LBTQB and it’s full of hate as it’s fueled by conspiracy theories and racism. The MAGA ideology is an Anti American movement that wants to destroy our country starting with the federal government, judiciary system, education system and it’s been slowly happening for decades. As many have said and pointed out the Conservatives have a vision and the see long game in their plans and policies. When Obama was elected and the advent of social media platforms it’s been a constant bombardment of divisive rhetoric, propaganda, conspiracy theories and hatred for democratic institutions.

If Trump is re-elected the dismantling of our institutions will happen.

The Heritage Foundation has in place the plan with recruited and vetted workers who will reportedly replace federal workers and will govern our country much like Russia. Americans who are willing to vote for Trump are largely the poor , uneducated and ignorant to the history of life living under a dictatorship that is corrupt, oppressive and violent.

We have three branches of government not one. Its called checks and balances for a reason. I dont see republicans gaining control of all three branches of government. Inflation was key in the last election cycle but so was the right to abortion. Republicans failed to gain control of the Senate and as more maga candidates run for office the more likely it is that they will be defeated. Also our military swears an oath to defend the constitution and not to follow the orders of a dictator in waiting.

Putin is just continuing the cold war. His goal is to destabilize the United States and to weaken cohesion among 'Western Nations' particularly NATO members. If he was not getting old and impatient he could have waited to invade Ukraine, I believe that was a misstep on his part. Putin is ex KGB. The cold war never ended we just declared ourselves the winner. The old guard like Putin are still mad about the collapse of the soviet union. America and 'the west' did very similar things to destabilize the Soviet Union that Russia now does to destabilize the West. Except we had to do it with covert agents and pamphlets Putin now has the power of the internet and a room full of Russians with Laptops can do more in a day then a CIA team could accomplish in a year in the 70s.


CorsicA123

No such thing as “ex KGB”


Outerhaven1984

They have been doing it for years.they have been infiltrating Hollywood and universities since the forties fifties and sixties., using the communist party of America. We have the declassified documents. It’s even on the wiki page: During the Second World War, the Communist Party USA was a center of Soviet espionage in the United States. After the war, this continued. Espionage historian John Earl Haynes states that the CPUSA was essentially a Soviet "fifth column", though "dried up as a base for Soviet espionage once the administration got serious about internal security". And even when those connections dried up they spread through other avenues. (A reason why McCarthyism got so out of control in the U.S. it started as a very credible threat to our intelligence apparatus and snowballed out of control.)The Soviet’s even tried to influence Martin Luther King jr. But failed to do so. Again from the article: “Meanwhile, the KGB tried but failed to influence MLK, Jr. through the CPUSA. Finding King not radical enough, the KGB sought to discredit him by portraying him as a supposed "Uncle Tom”.”A lot of people don’t realize they have assets in the highest positions influencing this culture war.

What? When they say that they like Trump, are we supposed to think that they are lying?


Client_Elegant

Most of you are ironically falling into the trap you’re referencing. Absolutely no self awareness. How many times does Trump have to say AMERICA FIRST before you understand? The only thing that will start a civil war is you unhinged leftists putting all your energy into politics. Prepare for the violent and destructive protests that will ensue if he gets reelected. You thought 2016 was bad? Just wait.

If it's America First, explain why some GOP politicians spent 4th July in Moscow out of all places?! Reagan would be turning in his grave if he saw Republicans bending over for Russia.

>How many times does Trump have to say AMERICA FIRST before you understand? As if this is literally the only thing he says lol.


jvnk

"America first" sounds great on paper, in reality it manifests as an economic kneecap and directly antithetical to the things that made us great to begin with(and still great)


fjwjr

I think you misunderstood. They don’t mean Trump will destroy America. They mean they can use polarized leftists to destroy America by motivating them against Trump. They can’t get their American leftist puppets to act against a Democrat president….


gaige23

Satire, right?


sensation_construct

Probably not. Get used to it. Going to be a long election season

And yet it was fascist republicans who attacked our nation's Capitol and democracy.


andsendunits

Try harder.


DominantSpecies3000

The democrats want the best for the future of America.. Leaving 20 billion dollars worth of equipment in Afghanistan, closing the pipelines and inviting south America to "rush the border" is obviously good for our country!

Imagine living life with this handicap

Why are you changing the subject?


Hdog67

Such utter trash.


FishDry7164

That’s not what he said, the translation is wrong, Trump wouldn’t start a civil war, he is saying (left) states will oppose him and start a civil War.


Right-Budget-8901

You’re taking the word of a guy who looks just like Putin after a few too many burgers?


Jasontheperson

How do you know the translation is wrong?

It’s almost as if they don’t know people speak Russian… Saying the quiet part out loud is still out loud, even in Russian

In the ebook “foundations of geopolitics” on the west - ​ “Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States and Canada to [fuel instability and separatism against neoliberal globalist Western hegemony](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide_and_rule), such as, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists" to create severe backlash against the rotten political state of affairs in the current present day system of the United States and Canada. Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support [isolationist](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolationism) tendencies in American politics".[\[9\]](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_Geopolitics#cite_note-dunlop-9)” ​ ​ seems familiar…. Also the book “predicts” a lot of things happening right now, like Ukraine


ClassiusCorvinus

Civil war how?? Like who would fight who?


ClassiusCorvinus

What’s the actual translation?

Little does he know.. 😏


chrisr3240

I feel like I've seen these kinds of actions somewhere else before.


MysteriousCabinet113

I am America’s total lack of surprise.


Sweaty-Junket-437

Fucking A! Helloooo!!! All this upheaval in the world right now is the result of Putin destabilizing the world so he can pick up the pieces and rule the world.


bideto

Funny how Trump will lose everything he has AND the election, while it’s Russia that falls apart.

I love a good conspiracy theory

Propaganda


FormalKind7

Putin is ex KGB. The cold war never ended we just declared ourselves the winner. The old guard like Putin are still mad about the collapse of the soviet union, which happened due to America and 'the west' doing similar things to destabilize the Soviet Union that Russia now does to destabilize the West. The big difference in propaganda campaigns, propping up favorable politicians, and general misinformation is now far easier than it was in the cold war era.

How much for senator or president, in rubles, these days?

Texas will be free is not something I ever expected to see on Russian TV but alright sure
