I haven’t been to Ukraine in nearly twenty years, but at that time my friends there told me that everything was run by what they called “the Mafia”. They believed that that word for us in America stands for any powerful criminal organization not just the Sicilian mob.
I prefer to make a distinction between informal power structures, the ones who are really running things, and the formal power structures, the elected officials. Both are corrupt, as corrupt as Russia.
“I’m glad Doug Burgum made this statement as it completely eliminates him from the VP decision.”

Yes, I love it too, when these UniParty hacks out themselves.

That’s fair. The problem with Ukraine is that mafia (who are the Azovs) are part of the government, and in fact, act as “enforcers” for Neocon policy, should Zelensky or anyone else consider trying to work with the Russians to end the war.
Wow, all the Uke Nazis did Nazi that coming!
When did Doug Burgum say this?
Kaboom! Good one.

Joe will just send BILLIONS more of our $$$ to Zelenskyy to sooth his hurt feelings...
because the Bidens are being blackmailed
BTTT.
And yet...it is NOT too corrupt to send hundreds of billions of dollars to...
Maybe, but russians aren’t globe trotting spending US citizen’s tax dollars on 4 million dollar cars, Paris fashion, and cocaine.
If Ukraine wasn’t corrupt nobody would be interested in the country. The only reason anyone is involved in Ukraine is because of its corruption. If you can’t launder money in Ukraine what use is it?
BTTT
—> I guess that the Russians can go home now.
Russians are home.
That seems like a big disagreement with what Trump says.
