For those US citizens who haven't really paid consistent close attention to politics over the past 10, this must be a crazy time. Unless you're still not really paying attention. If that's the case, tell me the secret for your sweet desire for complete ignorance. The rest of you must be wondering who to listen to to figure out what the fuck is going on. Whose facts are right? Who's rooting for Russia? Who's been blackmailed? The last one is next to impossible to figure. It is rare for people who've compromised their principles to later admit this fact. Mainly because the original blackmail item, though it may only be a minor one, is still dangling over their head.
Unfortunately, we are living in a time of alternate realities where facts tend to be slippery. The stolen 2020 election is the current standard bearer. Which leaves people rooting for Russia as the one to focus on. Are there really people who claim to be rooting for the USA actually rooting Russia? Sure looks like it from where I'm standing. If they're not straight up rooting for Russia, they damn sure seem to be rooting for the USA to fail.
Full disclosure, I won't be naming names here. This is simply a tool for you to use to help you do your own research. What could go wrong there? Don't worry. I won't be asking you to find facts. Just to find people's opinions on a few key events of the past 10 years. Then you can decide who to listen to. Let's take a look.
Trump launches his campaign for the 2016 presidential election. This has nothing to do with determining who is rooting for Russia. It gets me close a nice round 10 year stretch of time as promised above. It may be interesting to see who has backed Trump from Day 1. You could also create a cross reference chart for individuals to see what caused them to dump Trump. Where does one's red line lay? Is it a lie?
2016 Russian election collusion AKA Russia! Russia! Russia! Trump did ask Russia to find Hillary's emails on national TV. Paul Manafort used to work for former Ukrainian President and Russian stooge Viktor Yanukovych and then worked for Trump's 2016 campaign. Manafort went to jail based on findings from the Mueller report along with a few other lackeys. Billy Barr claimed the Mueller report cleared Trump of collusion. Mueller later said something like, "Not really" afterwards. Take a look as to where various journalists, politicians and thinkers come down on this one. Take note of those who focus on things such as the Steele dossier and a purported "Pee Pee" tape as opposed to the convictions of Trump related characters. See if any of you also think Trump decided to use a Jan Brady, the lamest Brady, reference to convince the American people that he is not guilty of treason.
Trump's perfect phone call to Zelenskyy in 2019. This is where Trump threatened to withhold arms unless Zelenskyy got some dirt on Sleepy Joe. It led to Trump's first impeachment. Though Senate Republicans did not dispute Trump's misdeed, most felt it wasn't bad enough to convict. Except for Mitt. This is the second Ukraine thing already. What opinions were people putting out on this one back in the day? And did any opinions change three years later?
2020 stolen election / 2021 insurrection. As I mentioned earlier, no definitive facts here. With the exception of Trump's second impeachment acquittal. A few more Republican Senators joined Mitt this time. I have a little guidance on this one. Take a look at the people who were downplaying the J6 riot right off the bat. Then look at the people who latched onto the the FBI false flag narrative. Was it not a big deal or the biggliest deal ever done by the Deep State?
Russia's 2022, as opposed to the 2014 invasion, of Ukraine. There were several takes here for a few different reasons. Some thought Russia was going to steamroll in a few days and Ukraine should go ahead and surrender to avoid death and destruction. But that didn't happen. Ukraine even had way more support than Afghanistan in either one of their wars with Russia and the USA but some still didn't give them even a fighting chance. Funny how people forget how hard it is for even the top militaries to take over an entire country. Trump thought Putin had made a genius move. Keep an eye out here for people who were using similar talking points as Russia as this horrible war unraveled. And, you know, most of us want to avoid WW III. But no country should be expected to give up their sovereignty because the invading country is threatening to start WW III. Question whether people were made gullible by fear or whether they were trying to inject fear on behalf of Putin. It's a different category altogether if a person actually has a direct impact on the war while parroting Putin's WW III threat. Hint: there's two people in this category. Which brings us directly to the last one.
Trump and JD acting like bitches to Zelenskyy for him not saying thanks during the meeting other than the two times he said thanks in his first two sentences. This one is coming in hot. Ukraine and Zelenskyy have been treated like shit by these two clowns for the past few weeks. Trump called Zelenskyy a dictator and said Ukraine started the war the week before Zelenskyy arrived in DC. Zelenskyy wanted to make it clear that Putin is a murderous piece shit who doesn't abide by simple agreements and is only swayed by force. Should Zelenskyy have waited to make this point after the press left? Would he have been given the opportunity before he had to sign away the raw earth beneath his feet? Who knows? Take notice of people who made an attempt to turn Zelenskyy into the bad guy after this pathetic little hissy fit by the #1 and #3 USA guys.
Anyone who consistently sides with the Trump version of reality on these above bullets could very well be rooting for Russia. Or the downfall of the USA. Or possibly mass chaos which could lead to a reshuffling of the global deck. The latter may not be rooting for anyone in particular but only for their preferred cryptocurrency to survive the upheaval. It would be hard to argue how anyone on this yacht truly has the best interest of the USA in mind. In my opinion that is. Your own research may bring you to a different conclusion. Follow the opinions. See what other opinions these people may have. I'll just make up a complete random example here but if you happen to be following the opinions of a journalist and they all align a certain way, take note if any of their sources ended up in an authoritarian country. It may or may not mean anything.
Some people may have started out one way then switched strongly to the other side. Some may have flip flopped along the entire decade. Some of these people may be concerned that they could possibly be blackmailed one day even though they have yet to be approached and are hedging. Some influencers or podcasters may claim to not know too much about politics but then give a strong opinion on one of these events. Ignore these ignorant fucks on all political issues. Whatever path you happen to take, just remember to have fun with this little exercise.
Is Trump really good at making deals?
One more thing to get to here. Trump claims to be a great deal maker. The best even. Is it just me or did he just lose $500 billion for the USA. I believe we were getting these raw earth gems without having to give up anything else. It looks like we may have lost the $100 billion and some change for services already rendered. According to Trump's numbers we are actually $350 billion in the red because he kicked Zelenskyy out of the White House before getting the signature.
Is Trump working the art of the deal here? Is he going to ask for more raw earth if Zelenskyy comes crawling back? Maybe Putin told Trump in one of their many recent phone conversations that he would stop the war right away if Zelenskyy would only stop saying mean things about him. Is it normal for a CEO of a company to blow up a sweet ass $500 billion contract because a foreign client says something slightly offensive or makes fun of a close friend? There is so much I don't understand about business.
Another full disclosure, I am not part of the Deep State. But I did come across a transcript of a phone call which may have been between Trump and Putin. I'll let you decide.
3 AM phone call from Moscow to Mar-a-Lago; February 2022.
#2: Hello?
#1: Hey. Were you sleeping?
#2: Nope. Just reading Twitter.
#1: I thought you were blocked.
#2: I made a fake account just for reading. I don't post with it.
#1: That is smart. How is the wife?
#2: Not sure. You okay? You sound a little down or something.
#1: You know what gets my goat. I hate there is a Russiagate thing still. I mean there is Watergate and Monicagate. I do not deserve to be associated with those events. I mean I am a strong president but I have feelings too.
#2: Pure lamestream media bullshit. You remember in Helsinki when I told everybody I believed you instead of our intelligence agencies.
#1: Of course. It was one of my happiest moments of all time. Yet it still persists and gnaws at my Russian soul.
#2: I've been saying Russia! Russia! Russia! to make it sound ridiculous. It's catching on.
#1: Where is that from? It sounds familiar.
#2: Did you ever watch The Brady Bunch?
#1: Not sure. What was it about?
#2: This dude married this chick and they each had three kids. Then they got a maid. The girls were hot too.
#1: Ah yes. I do recall.
#2: Well Marcia was super hot and the middle sister hated her and would always say Marcia! Marcia! Marcia! It always cracked me up. I always liked the middle sister Jan best. She was the right age for me when the show was on.
#1: I see. I always wondered if the kids were doing each other.
#2: Me too! I always had Jan with Greg. Peter with Cindy and Marcia with Bobby.
#1: Let me pull it up. Oh, you dog. Bobby with Marcia? Why not older with older and so forth?
#2: Not sure. It just worked out that way for me. Did you know Greg fucked the mom?
#1: For real?
#2: Yep. Total MILF action.
#1: If Prigozhin was not busy I would have him make a Brady Bunch porno and send it to all the Democrats with a virus.
#2: Bill and Hillary would totally watch it together. What is ole Prig cooking up today?
#1: Well, I probably should not say.
#2: Oh come on. Is it burgers? Tell me.
#1: Okay. He is heading up an invasion.
#2: No shit. Where?
#1: The Ukraine.
#2: Fuck yeah! I hate Zelenskyy. He almost got me impeached. Complete genius move.
#1: I think so too. I am guessing it will take three or four days tops.
#2: Sweet! I'll make it my first stop when I'm president again.
#1: Ha! You crack me up.
#2: What? It could happen. With a little help of course.
#1: Are you not worried about prison. I was actually planning a breakout sort of thing.
#2: Oh, appreciate it but no. We got this plan to push everything back until after the election. If I even get indicted.
#1: That would be great I guess. We might could help you out. Unless we are still at war with The Ukraine. Ha!
#2: Good one. But hey, after the war wraps up, you should totally make The Brady Bunch porno. Send me a copy but without the virus.
#1: Of course. I should go now. Have a good night.
#2: You too.
Interesting stuff. Good luck with the project.
