I have been saying for four years, It is not Joe Stalin's Russia any more.
The basic bones of our culture have more in common with Russia than any other major nation or ethnic group.
Russia SHOULD be our strongest ally in the coming years.
Of course, that is why our Left hates them. Russia is abandoning the idea of Communist Utopia.
But not domination. Nor is China. Deep States .
Big bucks for the elitist in any major country, or in the Crappers., for that matter..
We had a good run, but when the "Greatest Generation" was succeeded by our generation, , there ain't any way but down, and Devil take the hindmost. Corruption rules!
As for the Russian people themselves, we do have much more in common than we have differences. They are generally liked by the common American, and vise-versa.
