I always thought Stone was a communist and a weirdo in general but it looks like a honest journalism and his patriotic angle is obvious.
Overall nothing here really make any news. Putin was always clear about his position on all of the above.
And I don’t think anyone is interested in his criticism of the ways things are going in US.
I’ve never liked Stone much either and I agree on your other points too. It’s kind of interesting that Stone is aware of the Ukrainian collusion with Hillary. That’s something that mostly right wing political junkies know about at this point.
