    We really need to examine this need people have to blame Russia for everything. Do you blame Russia when your dryer loses a sock too? It’s fascinating to me.

      I might if Russia had a vested interest in taking my socks, and the dryer had a history of justifying Russia’s sock stealing.

          several intelligence offices from several countries have proven russian influence into western politics, infrastructure and social media. What is your claim based on? Feelings? Strong base to stand on lmao

        Let’s pretend he isn’t a Russian asset. What would he do differently upon becoming one? At this point, being a Russian asset is the better explanation for his actions. If he isn’t, he’s making a lot of dumb decisions that benefit Putin and hurt the US and her allies.
