Tucker triggering the liberals. Love to see it.
it's no mystery the "indulging putin to own the libs" comments are all coming from the hardcore maga posters. putin's whole strategy is to amplify their populist, anti-interventionist sentiment so he can continue his wars of aggression against europe unchecked. this wink and nod game he and tucker play is pretty transparently meant to manipulate maga's reflexive tendency to support anything that could remotely be construed as anti-establishment or owning the libs, even if it's tacit endorsement of a dictatorial authoritarian murderous regime hell-bent on the west's destruction.
Putin did nothing when Trump was the President, thus Putin advocating for more Trump or the movement that Trump represents is not logical.
Your theory makes no sense.
think about this from putin's perspective. generally, american democrats want to continue funding the military you are at war with, a war you should have won many months, causalities, and resources ago. generally, trump's party wants to stop funding this military. who would you want in power?
the notion that the timing of the invasion is proof that trump is a bulwark against russian aggression is elementary and naive. trump and his surrogates are a vector for the ideologies that allow putin to further his ambitions against the west.
My IQ dropped from reading the gaslighting crap I just quoted. It is simply more "Trump is Putin's BFF" nonsense.
Here are "vector" Trump's policies that "allowed Putin to further his ambitions":
"...the Trump administration imposed new sanctions on Russia including strict sanctions on seven of Russia's richest individuals and 17 top government officials for their interference in our elections.
The sanctions directly penalized President Vladimir Putin's inner circle by prohibiting them from traveling to the United States ever again. He did this by opening a bank account in the West, preventing them from doing business with the West and prohibiting anyone else to do business on their behalf.
The sanctions were significant among the toughest sanctions ever placed on individuals in a foreign country, with the exception of perhaps Iran and North Korea. Yet like many of Trump's successes, it received minimal mainstream media coverage.
During his first month in office in January 2017, President Trump upheld strict sanctions to punish Russia for its unlawful 2014 annexation of Crimea. With those sanctions, the Trump administration punished more than three dozen individuals and organizations that were behind the invasion of Ukraine.
Even Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin had a hand in the actions, stating that there would be no easing of the sanctions until Russia meets its obligations under the 2015 Minsk agreement the ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine.
In August 2017, Trump signed a bill slapping even more sanctions on Russia this time specifically aimed at the country's energy and defense industries. Congress made the legislation Trump-proof, meaning that no executive order could ever undo such sanctions; yet Trump signed it anyway.
In fact it was Trump not Obama who ordered the closure of Russian diplomatic properties in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and New York City that appeared to be a threat to American security.
It was also President Trump who shuttered the Russian consulate in Seattle."
Here's more:
"Furthermore, it was President Trump who led the world in expelling Russian diplomats after the Russian government was suspected of carrying out a nerve agent attack in the United Kingdom against one of their former spies. President Trump moved swiftly to expel 60 Russian diplomats from U.S. soil, and other countries followed suit by expelling dozens as well."
Oh, and more:
"In addition to stringent sanctions, President Trump has also called out Russia publicly.
During a landmark speech last year in Poland, Trump lambasted Russia for using oil to hold NATO's Eastern European countries hostage. Trump underscored the dangers of those countries' dependence on Russian oil deliveries to keep their people warm during the winter, leading to their inability to criticize Russia the rest of the year.
The Trump administration even offered to help identify alternative energy sources for the region. Trump's remarks on European soil was the energy industry equivalent of Reagan's "tear down that wall" speech."
There is plenty more, but it's pearls before swine, as they say.
Liberals are liars.
