Mike Turner: Russian Propaganda on Ukraine Is Infecting GOP
Breitbart ^ | 04/07/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 04/07/2024 7:34:28 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Representative Mike Turner (R-OH) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Russian propaganda has “absolutely” infected the Republican base.

Anchor Jake Tapper said, “Let’s turn to Ukraine, an issue that’s important to you and your fellow Republican Chairman, Michael McCaul, who runs the form refers committee. Congressman McCaul made a comment this week about what he says sounds like Russian propaganda from some conservative media. Why it’s so difficult to explain to Republican voters why supporting Ukraine is important. He said, “I think Russian propaganda has made its way into the United States, unfortunately, and it’s infected a good chunk of my party’s base. He singled out primetime shows on conservative channels. Do you agree with him and how big is this problem?”

"Yes you childish idiot, it was BIDEN who lost the Bagram base. But you have to insult people by claiming Biden is their idol."

Kudos to you for conceding the point that your hero and Dear Leader is an idiot. Now you need admit that the Pentagon is filled with perverted, leftist idiots.

Now try to tell me how Biden the idiot and his posse of Pentagon Perverts is goi g to do any better in the Ukraine? I doubt that you can.

Also, again, I ask you to please explain the successes of the "Great Spring Summer Fall Winter Spring Offensive" if you can. I suspect that you will have a question again.

Ukraine only needs equipment. Not hard to supply. That’s how.

Now I answered you.

Yes I hate Biden. Duh.

Uh-huh, no propaganda there. We the people will deal with our (covert and overt) authoritarians here at home as we have for hundreds of years. We don’t need an overt, unrepentant authoritarian over in Russia to do it for us. So you can do you, but I’ll continue to root for the people who hate us (America) to fail.

Try to pay attention. I have never predicted the outcome of any aspect of the war.

I have nothing to explain to you.

It is a fact that for more than 2 years Ukraine has had incredible success defending against Russia.

Which also is a duh.

It’s not Russian propaganda to understand the fundamental reality that UKraine on its own cannot win a hot war with Russia, period. Western nations can spend every ounce of coin in their treasuries supplying arms and munitions to UKraine and it will not change that outcome.

Unless you are willing to see wester military personnel fighting and dying in UKraine Russia will win this conflict period.

That’s not Russia propaganda that’s factual reality.

UKraine cannot regains its borders prior to this conflict, and will eventually be turned into rubble the longer it drags on.

Z is as big an idiot as Biden, if not bigger. No it’s not right that Russia invaded, but the failure of his leadership to recognize the geopolitical realities of his nation will continue to have his nation destroyed.

Once UKraine showed they were not going to be easy pray and pushed back the initial wave, peace talks should have been the highest priority, not making insane claims that they could out and out defeat Russia.

That’s not Russian propaganda, that’s reality.

What national interest is served by further indenting our children in an attempt to push Russia that will fail, unless of course we put our sons and daughters over there to fight and die? And what national interest is served by that?

This entire thing is fustercluck.. and no I do not support our government worrying about an invasion of another country while it is actively aiding the invasion of our own

What are you babbling about Europe being “overrun”? Are you talking about the Camp of Saints migrant disaster? Or are you referring to the silly old lie that Russia wants to invade and conquer Europe?

As always, you dragout the globalist boogieman to make aq futile argument about totally irrelevant queers.

I understand that under your rock, you can’t see practically all the world invisible to you hidden by the rock

... Fortunately the Europeans have started to step up to fill the vacuum left by the U.S. decision to let Ukraine and its Chinese Allies have Ukraine. But will it be enough?

It may not be unless we sober up and assist after all. I hope and pray.

They didn’t hate us until we spent 20 years cultivating them into an enemy and trying to force DC perversion on them. A defeat for nazi Ukraine is good by itself. That it hurts the occupation junta in DC is double prizes.

"Russian are experts at lying and propaganda"

That part is correct.

"Russia is not winning"

That part remains to be seen, IMHO.

"desperate propaganda campaigns - like we see on FR"

"Campaigns" -> flame wars <- no thanks.

Imagine these people who actually believe Vladimir Putin has invaded Ukraine for two years because he was concerned about homosexuality!

Anyone can read the pretexts Putin announced from the beginning, which in many respects echo the arguments made by Hitler.

Name calling is the refuge of the scoundrel. I take it as your tacit admission that the proxy state of the Ukraine and its slave soldiers are losing, and badly.

Dont look for a draft to save this neocon project because the West cannot draft its native sons and leave their invading turd world shock troops exempt from the draft. If they try to draft our sons and exempt illegal aliens from the draft to rape our daughters there will be revolutions all over the West. Even in Canaduh.

"I have nothing to explain to you."

Yes you do, you just cannot admit the truth. The proxy slave state of the Ukraine is losing, badly.

“Russian are experts at lying and propaganda

Fortunately, Russia is not winning, or these desperate propaganda campaigns - like we see on FR - wouldn’t be needed, would they”

You are just upset because the Russian doesn’t have a WEF whore like Trudeau lording insanity over them. Oh don’t feel alone, what America has at this point is beyond description.
