The right’s decade-long lurch toward Vladimir Putin’s Russia
The right-wing commentariat’s decade-long shift from near-universal antagonism to Russia to eager amplification of Kremlin propaganda has helped create the environment for Trump’s recent moves selling out Ukraine in favor of an effective alliance with Putin.
Really, the only reason why it took as long as it did was because of so many right-wing voters still associating Russia with the Soviet Union.
Yeah, and it's kind of ironic that the US is having it's Yeltsin moment at the same time as Russia is desperately trying to re-form the Soviet Union.
