grandma chanti, you've been around the block a few times so I want to get your take on all this russian nonsense.
let's just say, for the sake of argument, that putin wanted trump to win.
ok... WHY?
republicans have been at war with the soviet union/russia for
a hundred years. russians grow up hating republican far more than even candlejack.... they hate ike, they hate nixon, they hate reagan with the white hot passion of a thousand burning suns. rightly or wrongly they blame reagan's lies for the fall of their once mighty empire.
and conversely, they have been supportive of democrat/liberal/communist/progressive agenda's here in america
the whole time. from che posters in the dorm rooms of dopey college kids like zero to the communists Joe McCarthy tried to purge in the 50's
the one unifying prevailing belief in russia has always been that the republicans are evil capitalists and must be destroyed. communism infiltrated academia in college campuses, the SDS, the weather underground, opposition to the vietnam war, hollywood, the media. the seattle weather collective ... it's all right there. a hundred freaking years of absolute hatred of republicans and capitalism...
and then they just flipped!?
I'm looking back... trying to see when this abrupt about face might have occurred.... again, just assuming that it happened for the sake of argument... is this moment here perhaps is the catalyst?...

did obama somehow manage to about face a hundred year long cold war against the republicans with these words?
