I wonder if it's dawning on some of them that supporting Russia, a country with an economy the size of the Netherlands and Belgium, is probably less profitable than supporting the US defense industry and selling weapons to markets which make Russia look like Burkino Faso with nukes.

I mean, ignoring the morality or right and wrong of it all, since that's less relevant to some of these ghouls.

If you actually talk to some of those people as people (person to person, just shooting the shit, not questioning or obviously gathering intel or anything) and the subject comes up, they’ll straight up tell you that.

Keep in mind there that the Russian population is literally 10 times bigger than the Netherlands, and that the territory size (which they need to defend and all) is over 400 times bigger.

Russia is coming this far by acting like an asshole, posturing like they are strong whilst they are really weak, and just plain cheating where possible.

One wonders why the Republican party likes them so much…
