Former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev said that he knows who planned the attack on the U.S. Capitol, and that the incident bodes ill for America's future.

Is he any worse than our new masters?

No, nor is Putin. I'd take either one over Harris/Demented Joe.

If he started arguing against our ruling Uniparty, the media Gorbasms would be suddenly interrupted.

Gorbachev is not on our side. He’s just a jaded old failure enjoying a fantasy about the demise of his old adversary, the US.

The Russians already know. They’ve had access to our politicians through their spare laptops, which are not cyber-protected to military grade and military protocols. They are basically open doors to anybody with a military cyber team.

Did he have spies on the ground?

We may very well need the Russians some day.

In a CW situation........the Russians always like making friends of new young potential Governments.

RPGs are the friendship gift that keeps on giving.

You nailed it! Gorby has never stopped hating the U.S.A. since the fall of the USSR which cost him his job.

Gorby was under “house arrest” much in the way it appears Trump is while the Soviet hardliners attempted their coup in 1991.

Gorbachev wasn’t a bad guy. He was trying to dismantle communism without it collapsing the Soviet Union.

He would have been had Reagan not forced his hand.

I’ve been thinking recently about Trump as Gorbachev.

Had you asked me if he were alive or dead, my answer would have been a guess.

He isn’t credible yet because he hasn’t stated whodoneit.
