In a recent appearance on Russia’s state-run television, Russian political scientist Sergey Mikheyev suggested that the country’s “empire” should grow to encompass three American states.
“I want the Russian empire with Alaska, Hawaii, California, Finland, and Poland,” he said, as translated by Gerashchenko for the clip he shared. “Although Poland and Finland are so stinky, I’m not sure, to be honest. We’ll clean them.”
Historically weak opposition to fascism still leads to fascism. The Democrats must put better candidates forward. They aren’t going to do it until they’re punished for not doing so.
Nothing weaker than refusing to vote against immediate dive into fascism.
Then there’s that problem. Democrats have been campaigning on that since Reagan. Obama was a departure because he made his campaign about hope. But Clinton, Kerry, The Other Clinton, and Biden all used fear. And none of them addressed the core problem.
