The U.S. has very little leverage with Russia, since they aren’t a major trading partner like China. And it’s a dying country anyway, so I honestly don’t understand all this fixation on Russia.

Let’s face it ... the only reason Russia is still considered an “adversary” by the political class in this country is that it’s predominantly white — which makes it an acceptable political target.

Russia has the most powerful military in Europe. And it just acquired a sizeable chunk of real estate in Ukraine. The area occupied isn’t massive - the size of the Netherlands. But it was aiming for all of Ukraine, which is the size of France.

Russia is no longer communist. It’s officially Christian. And they don’t allow gay adoption

With all that, are you surprised that our elites hate Russia?

The number one reason Russia is a world power is because they have the world's mightiest and most deadly nuclear arsenal.
It is always a good idea to keep the Russians close.
The Democrats have been wetting their pants over Russia merely in cynical plot to overthrow Trump with that fake Russian collusion nonsense.
Trump has been infinitely tougher on Russia than Obama, Hilary Clinton and John Kerry were.
The past four years have been wasted for nothing.

Another reason the Uniparty despises Russia is that they fight Muslim terrorists and oppose a gas pipeline to the Mediterranean, both being projects of the Saudis and/or Qataris who apparently help finance our legislative class.
