And in case your time machine isn't working, present day Russia should do just fine. I also hear they have loads of job opportunities there.

So many of these Trump fans were alive during the cold War yet actually do somehow think Russia is doing things right currently despite their current practices being the antithesis of traditional American values that the GOP claims to hold so dear. It's mezmorizing.

The cold war was against communism; modern Russia is super capitalist and corrupt, which is what the right wing wants

It's Russia's psy-ops being extremely fucking good at their job. I'm just glad they're nowhere near as good at real war.

Short term job opportunities. Must be an organ donor to apply.

I like how you're implying Trump would annex Russia to the greater American empire.
