‘I can’t believe my ears’: Garry Kasparov on GOP lawmakers repeating Russian propaganda

  1. Republicans need a reminder that Russia is an adversary of the USA, they have never been a friend. Both nations tolerated each other at times, but the nuclear arsenal aimed at each other should remove any doubt that Russia is a threat, not an ally.

  2. Kasparov has it right, as always:

    – Putin isn’t going to stop,

    – Russians think they’re fighting NATO and winning,
    – They think they’re demonstrating that the West is a paper tiger,
    – The West thinks its trying to prevent WW3 and Putin is already fighting WW4, and taking revenge for WW3 (the Cold War).

    – He really does think that some of this is an own goal, EU’s economy alone is 20 times the size of Russia — “We’ve been lazy.”

    – But, Trump is “different”. He sees all this and wants to “…make not peace, but *deals*”.

    Kasparov is right about Trump. He doesn’t say why, but I will. Trump is a sociopath who doesn’t understand right from wrong. Kasparov did take a wider swipe at MAGA…surely some among them understand what Kasparov said, “If Ukraine loses, American lives will be on the line.”

  3. Where the f*** is the discharge petition? I am ashamed and frankly threatened by the level of failure and how compromised our government is.

  4. Kasparov is spot-on, as usual. But to the question of why so many in the Republican Party are pro-Russia, while I wouldn’t rule out that a lot of them are being paid and/or blackmailed, I think the main reason is that they look at Russia and see a political model they would like to emulate in the US. MAGA is a modern, American iteration of fascism, which is why they also admire PM Viktor Orbán of Hungary and CPAC is having conferences in Budapest, and also why there is a growing number of far-right Americans converting to Russian Orthodoxy.

  5. When republicans say no no no America first before anything else I say well then why do y’all keep do EVERYTHING BUT America first on almost ANYTHING??

  6. These Republicans can never ever call themselves Americans, ever again.
