They've commented publicly many times that he's a "strong leader"...."much stronger than President Barack Obama"...so there's that.

of cons they would 99.9% say they are very anti Putin or Russia.

This is really simple, Putin is a white racist, GOP is now white racists.


If you read my posts you will see nobody has a lower opinion of them than I do and even I know that when it fit their needs, they were against our enemy also.

But like you say, Putin is a strong white supremacist, but so was Hitler.

It was always obvious there was Russian interference. No one expected the obvious. The con is a Russian puppet, imo.

i mean, that's *exactly* what a panicky guilty person would say and something an innocent person would *never* say.

everything about that statement screams guilty, guilty, guilty.

I mean, as in "red states."

And in, "better dead than red." Maybe not any more.
