I mean...by all accounts, the Russians are all-powerful and all-knowing, to the point of knowing the American electorate better than the DNC and the American media (who both thought they had this election in the bag...until they didn't). They were able to hack not only the election, but the Wisconsin recount (how else do you explain Trump GAINING 162 votes?).

I believe we should just go ahead and surrender now.

Charlie Wilson, Hero of the Free World, didn't you know?

Aginst the wishes of the establishment and the MSM we elected a man with balls.

The Leftists in the media and Academia still don't give credit to Reagan. It was Gorbachev who should get the credit.

we out spent them, year in year out. NSA published diagrams of a star wars laser weapon orbiting in outer space in Time magazine. That did it. they gave up and went for the rubles.

It seems the America is the only one NOT playing the long game. That's why we get used.

The problem is that we don't profit as much from getting used as we used to.

No, we didn't, that was my point.

We merely out borrowed them.

What happens when the note comes due? Who'll be holding that note?

We won by doing to Russia what China is now doing to the United States.

Food for thought.

Read the book Spy master by Kalugin. A former general of the KGB tells his story and the problems the USSR had. One issue was he found interesting was that Americans thought the KGB was organized which was completely untrue.
