    It was someone that worked with the administration, I don't recall who exactly it was. The point is this, the left outplayed themselves. They launched this phony russia collusion shit and vlad has to be sitting back going "what the fuck are these idiots talking about" You know, because there was no collusion. Like him or hate him they sort of made 45 more powerful at that point. He was unpredictable and just crazy enough to keep them guessing.

    Or he was smart enough to sit and watch Trump help him reach a primary goal; make NATO irrelevant.

    How by forcing the rest of NATO to pull its own weight? It isn't like NATO was ever worth a shit anyway.

    Nah. It’s just a bullshit excuse for the military complex to launder. Just an excuse for US defense contractors to reach global partners.

    With a NATO budget 20x of the Russias, what has been the point?

    There should be no contest but look at us today…….

    Also, since NATO was first formed, who’s expanded territory more? NATO or Russia?

    I mean, I get the idea behind it, but I don't recall in my history lessons that Russia had this grand idea to conquer the whole of Europe.

    Russia's interest seem strategic enough to be centered around access to the Black and Baltic seas with regards to exports of their natural resources.

    This idea that Russia needs this gigantic opposing European force to counter "aggression" is miss guided as no Russian goals have ever been expressed to the extent that we require all this "defense spending".

    While I do not agree with their ideology, they seem to be a boogeyman that pops up when convenient.

    Like what are we fighting these days? Commies? Fuck, half the country is paid for by China. Its political opportunism.
