So, there in lies the comparison rub between him and Trump. Never looked at it that way, Strannix

No one can take us on the ground. They have to take us from within. And by the looks of things some are certainly trying their damn bests.

USA or CIA?
He’s a POS trying to keep Russia together by force and threats. He does the same throughout Eastern Europe, but is no real threat to any functioning government.

A foreign boogeyman is a useful tool for a despotic regime. Putin is not a threat to this country.

Lol. Russia isn't going against a third world iraq or some shite. Ukraine is being funded and armed by nato. We wouldn't even be able to quickly settle Ukraine in that situation.
As far as your question.. I don't think Russia poses any threat to us. It's impossible for them to invade us on a significant scale. It's impossible for them to frick with our economy since we've already cut all ties with them. It's even impossible for them to use propaganda on us, because their propaganda is instantly shut down. It's impossible for them to nuke us, because our hidden subs would nuke them right back.
In this world, China is the only one that could hurt us, imo. Most of our shite is made in China. If China stupidly destroys their own economy and bans all foreign entities from operating in their country.. and bans all trades, they could deal heavy damage to us.

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union posed a threat of spreading Communism across the globe. That was the justification for spending billions to confront and defeat these enemies of Freedom.
Now? Not so much b

Russia isn’t a threat. China is.
Posted on 8/19/22 at 6:06 pm to Strannix
USA would crush Russia....the economy is the size of Ohio....and less than half the population of the US.
However, Putin is crazy and will push the nuclear button if he is cornered.....

Hes only dangerous to the American taxpayer. He's going to bleed us out funding his opposition.

He has already "taken" Ukraine. If Putin wanted, he could obliterate Ukraine.
But to answer your question, Putin is not as dangerous as the deep state is to The United States.

So, why does our own propaganda machine (MSM) scream Russiam bloody murder on the daily?

Well, the verdict is the Russia collusion was a democrat illusion.
What's happened since Obama's hot mic incident? I'm pretty sure SOMETHING happened. Unfortunately, we aren't privvy to the details, per usual.

Because they are just mouth pieces passing the information. All news is the same minus isolated local events.

Honestly this Ukrainian offensive has really exposed the Russian military. There equipment has been exposed as unreliable and suspect. They are not the threat that everyone thought they were.
