What amazes me, is how damn stupid their position is. China is certainly the #1 Geopolitical factor in the coming decades. It has 4 times our population, an economy that is growing (though slower), and is working to build soft power throughout the world. Why in the hell we wouldn't support Ukraine as a way to keep Europe and NATO firmly in our camp is mystifying to me.

The Republican partisans are not known for their intelligence. Being ignorant seems to be their preferred stance.

As I said, they've been bought. They don't give a damn about the country or its people. They're the Quislings of our generation.

I've said it before. Putin bought them body and soul.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if that was literally true. DeSantis could have been on Putin's payroll since he was in college. They plan long-term.

Their "news" department hasn't bothered telling them that.
