Well, as Patrick Henry said long ago, “If this be treason, make the most of it!”

as well as the archipelago of War Party think tanks beavering away inside the Beltway.

Pat's got a way with words.

Look America has been sold out to China for an entire generation and a half.

BOTH PARTIES.

Everyone. It is about time, that America stopped selling out to China.

If it means getting closer to Russia, I’m willing to try that out for a while.

We know our countries are different. But we also know there are ways we are similar.

I am all for exploring this.

For real.

The neo-conservatives/deep state need a foreign enemy to justify their global agenda.

The Left has never recovered from the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was the engine of globalism and socialism. It is their worst nightmare that a capitalist, nationalist Russia embraces the best of its cultural heritage and finds that it has more in common with a capitalist, prosperous United States that has secure borders and also celebrates its cultural heritage than it has real differences. Trump and Putin, each in their own way, the champions of nationalism are the perfect storm that is wrecking the Left’s dream. The Left would do anything to be rid of them both.

And there will be no Cold War II.

Progs are deeply, saddened.

“European allies have freeloaded off U.S. defense while rolling up huge trade surpluses at our expense.”

And let’s not forget that by stiffing their agreed upon contributions to their own defense, thereby forcing the US to pony up, they have been able to use the “freed up cash” to further their Socialist Utopias. It’s long past time that the US Taxpayer be taken out of the financial traces imposed on him by this bull$hit NATO “organization.”
Frankly, I’m so disgusted with Europe as a whole, I’d almost be willing to stand back and let Putin have at all of them, the pack of Arrogant Socialist Pussies.

I have to wonder how much of the left’s animus towards Russia is due to the Kennedys being caught red-handed colluding with Russia while they were still communist.

They’re petty like that.

Excellent article well worth the entire read. Buchanan’s been on a role lately.

“the neocons and their liberal interventionist allies”

What’s the difference? At least foreign policy-wise they seem exactly the same. It’s been clear that the neo-cons took over the Dem party in 2016, and most of their followers are so easily lead around by the nose they didn’t even notice that they are now what they were protesting against just a few years ago.

They were so sad they didn’t get another war out of Hillary in Syria after she already destroyed Libya. Now they are so eager to restart the Cold War based primarily on paranoia and treating tiny things like they are gigantic. (It’s funny how the left wept in sympathy and defended the criminals vigorously when we executed Soviet Communist spies who stole our nuclear secrets, but they are in total freak out mode that some Russians exposed actual, real Democrat emails proving the Dems did not have legitimate primary elections, i.e. they only dislike Russians when they expose factual left-wing corruption, not when they spy on or attack the US.) They can’t stand that a peace-focused leader like Trump is standing in their way of their next war.

The reaction by both parties serves as a reminder that ONLY Trump should being carrying the matrix of leadership for the next half a decade. He will solve the problems the rest don’t even know we have

Every country right now especially in Europe and former Soviet space...but Asia and elsewhere too is undergoing its own, inner spiritual battle, and search for identity.

Americans need to focus on our own soul. If we choose God, we will be victorious without firing a shot and inspire other countries to choose the same by the power of example.

Or we drift into further into socialist, secularist, tyranny.

Never forget how the Left and their icons mocked Romney in the 2012 election for warning that Russia was our main geo-political foe. Obama, Hillary, Biden, Kerry, and Chris Matthews and Rachel Maddow all made snide comments about it.

“Russia, this is, without question, our number one geopolitical foe,” Romney said. In response, Obama mocked Romney’s statement, saying, “The 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because…the Cold War’s been over for 20 years.”

Then Hillary Clinton got in on the action. She told CNN at the time, “It’s somewhat dated to be looking backwards,” playing off President Obama’s remarks that Romney was stuck in a “Cold War mind warp.” (She then, during the same interview, goes on to compare the Russians to Nazis... but of course, nobody bothered to point out her glaring self-contradiction.)

VP Joel Biden said that Romney belonged to “a small group of Cold War holdovers.”

Secretary of State John Kerry said, “Mitt Romney talks like he’s only seen Russia by watching ‘Rocky IV,’” he said.

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and Rachael Maddow both mocked Romney, claiming he was merely trying to copy Ronald Reagan.
“He read about Reagan’s private, outside-the-CIA cabal of team-B zealots who were telling him that Russia had all the stuff they didn’t have so he could justify a giant defense budget,” Maddow said.
“I don’t know what decade this guy’s living in,” Matthews said. “Is he trying to play Ronald Reagan here, or what?”

Funny how their views change so radically after just one little election.

Yet Obama tells the Russians he will be more “flexible” after the 2012 Presidential Election and no big deal.

The Dems and Left loves he commies in the old Soviet Union

Now Putin is a nationalist grand oligarch ex kgb with culturally conservative ideas so they hate him

If he were Gorby they’d love him

Putin gets on better with Netanyahu than I think anyone Russkie ever has....Stalin was Georgian yes I know

Yet neoconservatives who at lest celebrity wise are 90% what culture war? Jews who are Israel hawks hate Putin and are the most ardent nevertrumpers outside ANTIFA

It’s complicated

Media

Progressives

Neocons

Democrats

Some before mentioned common denominators but bound only by hatred of Trump

Hunch....neocons think all nationalists are potential Heydrichs.....that’s their real issue

All these groups hate nationalism especially if any hint of racial connection because they think folks like that..me...are just a hop skip and jump from Sharp Dressers who Walked in Lines....hattip(?)

Joy Division....

We have to be strong and defeat these people

They will destroy us rather allow a nationalistic USA with borders and common culture and identity

Elitists

Deep State whatever I never knew our national police and intelligence agencies were so compromised by the left

Damn
