      I’ve been telling people for years, Russia most certainly influenced the outcome of the US elections because they have a huge interest in placing inept, incompetent, easily manipulated fools in power, in their “enemy” countries.

      It wouldn’t surprise me if they had something to do with an actor becoming president of Ukraine. They had plans to take Ukraine, and they didn’t want a real politician in power when they tried it.

        My theory is that Putin blames the US for destroying the Soviet Union. He blames us for forcing the USSR into a cold war it never wanted and he saw first hand how endless anti-communist propaganda turned the whole western world against the USSR… So now he believes he is doing to the US what we did to the USSR, bombarding us with endless disinformation and propaganda to destroy our country from the inside out.

        They have really outdone themselves this time. It’s actually impressive.
