The U.S. can't even send astronauts to the International Space Station without using Russia's Soyuz rockets. I believe there are three personnel up there right now -- two NASA astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut who is the mission commander.

How much of a "foe" are the Russians, really?

I don’t feel Russia’s a ‘foe’ to the American people as much as they’re a ‘foe’ to our Deep State... And I’m tired of subsidizing the ‘cops and robbers’ game both groups play with each other. We’re their excuse for expanding and they’re our excuse for throwing so much money down the ‘intelligence’ rat hole.

It doesn’t help that our ‘intelligence services’ appear to be aligned with the corrupt liberal elite democrat party. AND that they appear to be the people behind the ‘leaks’ against President Trump.

So no, I don’t like that group either. And they hate us...hate conservatives - their bias is offensive since all American pay their salaries - they are hired to serve all of us - not be our ‘masters’.

That said, I’m NOT interested in seeing communism in Nicaragua either...

The Space Program highlights common ground with Russians - ground we don’t have in common with anyone else. Both our countries had what it took to get into space years ago... a technological superiority few others have ... North Korea might use the technology, but in a million years they would not have come up with it on their own.

(tack this on to my last comment)

So again - it's worth a long hard look and there's plenty of time to ‘get it right’...

Communism is one of the worst economic systems created in the history of the world. It's the crap the far left wing pushes.. so we need to ‘keep it real’ when dealing with them...
