I get 'ya. There probably isn't a single person on DU that would count themselves as an ally of Russia. Just republicans.
Republicans never were either, until they decided to submit to voluntary labotomies and follow Drumpf around like baby ducks. But baby ducks are cute, and don't want to kill people.
There's a reason all of Trump's meetings with Putin never had another American in the room. Only Putin's Russian interpreter knows what was exchanged between the two, and you can bet he's not talking.
I have nothing against the Russian people. It's their totalitarian leader I despise.
Hence the 😉 wink, but there is no real substitute for a good old fashioned 
when push comes to shove.
Peace. ✌
I wasn't aware of any of that.
Those bullet holes in the wall must be a chilling sight. Then think about how many of those people were executed by order of Drumpf's best buddy. 
Putin is not to be trusted on anything. Of course the right-wingnuts believe he's a wonderful man, and his Russia is their model for a new White American utopia. 🙄 Never trust a snake.
a criminal mastermind. 
The guy is a bit of a goofball, and doesn't sit in on his dad's cabinet meetings or anything. So he's a Russian double-agent. That is priceless! Those fuckers will believe anything.

"Russia is our friend" - new republican meme of Trump's regime.
Used to be: “Better dead than red”
"... retired Marine Corps Gen. James N. Mattis said in May 2015 that among world threats “in the near term, I think the most dangerous might be Russia.”

They have been at this game for a long time and will take every opportunity to spread disinformation and sow dissention in the United States.
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and all the RW online chat rooms are full of their disinformation and negative messages.

For the past six years, an obscure disinformation campaign by Russian operatives has flooded the Internet with false stories in seven languages and across 300 social media platforms virtually undetected, according to new report published on Tuesday by social media researchers.
The operation, named "Secondary Infektion" by researchers, has sought to spread pro-Russian propaganda around the globe by sharing fake tweets from U.S. elected officials and conspiracy theories about the coronavirus. And it attempted to interfere in the 2016 presidential election. Researchers say it will likely try to spread falsehoods tied to the November election, too.
Ben Nimmo, director of investigations at Graphika, the research firm that conducted the study, said in an interview that the specific culprit within Russia remains elusive.
Why Fake Video, Audio May Not Be As Powerful In Spreading Disinformation As Feared
"We don't know whether it was run by the government, or associated with the government, or a group who wanted to support the government," Nimmo said. "But the overall tone and context makes it clear that this was an operation which was trying to support the Russian government and attack and undermine its critics."
Security officials at Facebook first identified the campaign last May, and since then, the tech giant and other platforms have been working to block the campaign. But it is so decentralized that it is still operating, though researchers say since it was exposed, the group's activity has slowed.

a policy saves lives with a simple mask and jab. When a Democrat orders it, they flip and say it's a power grab and government over-reach.
If tRump and/or Putin had told them to wear masks and get vaccinated in 2020, the MAGATs would have lined up for miles in rain or snow to get-er-done and many lives would have been saved.
It's just the traditional Big Republican Flip-Flop.
