“Washington today echoes with so many uncomfortable reminders of that transitional moment in Moscow—the sudden, fearful silence of critics who had previously spoken out, the business tycoons rushing to kiss the President’s ring, the lying and reality distortions to fit the official narrative.”

At this point, I just wish trump would just hurry up and get it over with and burn the entire country down and rule over the ashes.
He is in the process of doing that right now and one thing has been proven over and over again:
No one will stop him from doing it.
They will create chaos, a constant sense of conflict
They will take over national symbols
They will rewrite history
They will divide and rule
They will alienate foreign allies
They will assault the highest court
They will ban press
They will limit freedom
In an extreme free market, business tycoons, once influential enough, will easily turn authoritarian.
While he talks about Being Fed Up with Zelensky, and talking about RARE EARTH, his Slurring of words, and discussing the demolition of Ukraine as if it’s Zelenskyy fault!
CONSTANT LIES!
“Putin-Trump 4-0”
because he so obviously immediately became Putin’s useful idiot
