Russia has busy weakening the United States in every way possible, destroying faith in our electoral process, engaging in a new arms race for which we have no response and using propaganda & his hydrocarbon monopolies to weaken our alliances to the point where he thinks he can mass tanks and troops against freedom seeking friends of ours. And it is done so simply to stoke the ego of Vladimir Putin in his quest to make "Russia Great Again!". Far from admiring him and joining his cause we should instead be denouncing him, his aims and emphasizing to the world that Russia has absolutely no ideas worth exporting, it is simply a nuclear armed gas station run by an evil whack job and we need to shut down its hydrocarbon exports to the world until they install better leadership.
