See, this is nuts. Hillary is awful and I'm thrilled she lost, but that doesn't mean Putin or Maduro or Kim Jong Un are better than her or equivalent. This is bizarro-land moral equivalency. Putin employs warlords like Ramzan Kadyrov who literally murder hundreds if not thousands of his citizens. You can't physically move without an internal passport. The economy is in free fall. If you want to run a company and you don't give someone connected to Putin an ownership stake, you get thrown in jail or killed. This is not a normal country nor is it remotely equivalent to the United States. It's political insanity to say that our enemy's enemy is our friend.
I have a feeling you are arguing against a paid Russian propagandist. The good thing is you’re winning. Over and over.
Yup. Best argument I’ve seen.

How many people are dead in Libya, Egypt, and Syria because of her enabling and helping terrorist thugs? It’s well north of 100k by now.
>You can’t physically move without an internal passport.
Normal for Russia for the last 1000 years or so.
>The economy is in free fall.
Nope, it’s in recovery. Stop spouting MSN BS.

Hate to break this to you sweetheart, but the US government does the same damn thing, generally in a less violent manner. We just have the curtsy to call it “political donations”. Microsoft learned this the hard ways in the 00s when the US government sued and sued them until they started dishing out huge donations to both parties. Get big enough in the US and it’s either pay up or have your life destroyed by the feds until you pay up.

Nations don’t have friends, they have interests. And right now Russia and our best interests align in rolling back the globalists progressives who are strangling western civilization and kicking the Islamists back to the stone age. Maybe tomorrow they won’t align, but until then I say we work together.
