With Trump trying his level best to bust up NATO, the Russian Tyrant is one step closer to his own Personal Iron Dream of painlessly recovering Mother Russia's Lost Belt of "Buffer States" (Poland, Romania, the Baltic States etc).
Its axiomatic that the US President's Actions are those of a Russian Asset, whether he is being blackmailed or coopted is immaterial at this point, Trump must be stopped.
Sadly, the only thing that permits Trump to persist on this suicidal course is the continuing willingness of the GOP majority in congress to enable him. Partly this is out of fear of his maniacal hold on the party base (truly has any majority in congress feared their own voters so much as the current GOP??) and partly out of a bad Faustian bargain the GOP has struck with Trump to put up with his antics as long as he cuts taxes and deregulates and appoints Falangists to the Judiciary.
Except now, to get all those wonderful gifts, they've got to sacrifice NATO and aggrandize Russia as well. So far they seem reluctantly willing to allow this...I know it's sad, but also funny to me personally since I spent the first thirty five years of my life being called a Commie by those same enabling, boodling conservatives.
Mind you this is all perpetuated by a minority of voters, the majority, who are not silent but simply not being represented, are entirely opposed to all this shit. They need to be heard from, they need to vote they need to end some careers in DC before those careerists in DC do nothing as democracy goes the way of the Pteradactyl in the USA.
