Show by The Opinionated Ogre

Donald Trump has been a Russian asset since the 1980s. Trump has been spewing russian propaganda for over 40 years and has been an obedient lapdog of the murderous dictator Putin every second he’s been in the White House.Now, with nothing left to lose, the Traitor-in-Chief has finally dropped any pretense of “America First” and is now openly funneling money to a hostile foreign nation. It won’t be long before Trump is ordering the Pentagon to send Putin weapons and intelligence to help him win his war against Ukraine. If (when) that happens, the Republican Party will have a choice: Go along with the treasonous leader of their party and forever be branded as traitors along with him, or finally, for the first time in their useless lives, put country first and remove Donald Trump from power.Honestly? I have no idea which way they’ll go, and that says a lot about the GOP. None of it good.I write to help you cope with the fear and anger threatening to overwhelm you every day.
