I have little doubt that he’s had significant help from the USSR. I believe that he’s also gotten some from Russia - after all, Putin believes that the biggest geopolitical tragedy of the 20th Century was the fall of the Soviet Union. He recognizes that nothing much has changed - the US is still the big boulder in the way of Russia becoming dominant.
Now, Soros has done things that the Russians don’t like, starting with his push for a one world government - or, rather, they pretend to not like them. If he was really hurting them, I have no doubt that Putin could and would have him and his whole family eliminated very quickly.
Regardless, I have a deep and abiding hatred for Soros. First, because I am Jewish and lost about 100 distant relatives in the Holocaust. What he did - by itself - could be understood and forgiven if it was something that he needed to do to survive, and if he sincerely regretted it...but he DOESN’T regret it at all. That says to me that he is a soul-less demon. Second, he obviously wants to destroy Western Civilization in general, and the US in particular, as we know these things. The problem is that my family found both refuge (from the ravages of Europe) and opportunity...and I’m not going to sit around and watch it get destroyed. Besides, there’s no other place to flee to like my grandfather did after the Russian Revolution.
I will celebrate on the day that this creature dies.
