13. We must never forget...
Mon Mar 9, 2026, 08:17 AM

... that Trump's gross incompetence dovetails nicely with Putin's psychotic obsession with destroying the West, and America in particular. As Trump flails around like an out-of-control fire hose of malice and depravity, Putin takes advantage of his staggering stupidity at every opportunity. He knows that Republicans are ruthless sociopaths with absolutely zero intention of ever doing anything that helps the American people, only the equally sociopathic billionaires that control them, and those guys are a cancer.
Bottom line: Never leave Putin out of any scenario involving the Orange Pustule. He's always got his blood-drenched fingers in everything.
