Remember the warning issued to Trump last Nov by Putin aide Nikolay Patrushev, saying Trump's win came at the price of certain "obligations" he was expected to fulfil? I bet 1 of those obligations was the degradation of Zelenskyy staged on live TV from the Oval Office yesterday. Putin planned that. - ThreadSky

Disagree. If this triggers the collapse of NATO into disarray, that would be Russia's greatest strategic success since detonating its first atom bomb

Yes, and they attacked Melania as well, on the same day:

He was not degraded.
We were.

And Russia is getting its money’s worth from Trump.
It’s hard to imagine a better scenario for Putin. 😈

It's grimly fascinating to watch how hard so many are working at erasing the lines to insist all we're seeing is a random collection of dots

And some people just truly lack that kind of holistic imagination. They can't see the patterns in the stars unless you trace them out with your finger for them.

The skillfully credulous duplicitously communicate a carefully air brushed world to an audience only too eager to surrender its sight

Trump did note that it would make great TV. and they did include TASS to make sure it was captured.

That was a performance for the boss.

No one listened and now we pay the price.

I hope journalists really dig into yesterday’s TASS incident. So far, all that’s being reported is the official narrative (which is obviously absurd).

Exactly, with the help of the Yale hillbilly to start the humiliation off.

What does Putin have on the dicktator!
