What a surprise that the guy who thinks the Democratic party should primary a sitting Democratic president should be aligned with Russia on the matter of Ukraine. I may die from the shock.

The Russians have always had really commendable spycraft. I never thought they’d get a president. That was wild…
But, to go back to that well again so soon? They must be running out of ideas.
I think if we’ve learned anything over the past year or so, it’s that originality is not their forte.
They have loads of ideas. Can I sabre rattle my way to victory? Can I run a country like a mobster? What about like a cult? Can Godwin’s law be a casus belli?
So many ideas. They’re bound to have a good one eventually.
I’m just surprised of all the attention this guy is getting. There’s nothing compelling about him and his ideas are trash.
He has a name people recognize even without ever recognizing him.
I’m like 99% sure that name recognition is one of the two important reasons people vote for a candidate; the other is party affilation.
Being a Russian asset has its perks, among which are the services of their comrades in the media machine.
The only attention I see him getting are from alternative medicine whackjobs that are voting for Trump anyways. He seems to have no appeal to anyone who actually votes for Democrats.
It’d be useful if he had a real actionable path out of this, it’s all good and well to say that we need a peaceful solution but that’s hardly something we can declare unilaterally.
Really he’s only making this statement to name-check his uncle. If he had some grand plan to offer Putin something he could present as a small victory domestically then that might help, but I can’t really come up with a golden bridge he can retreat over. Putin’s the one that needs humiliated here, but that’s also the end of him.
