Not the best source, but I can’t post the image alone.

Here’s the image to save you a click on Newsweek.

    Republicans seem to like russians now in any case - which is so bizarre for anyone who remembers the “Better Dead than Red” tshirts etc that were all over during the last decade-ish of the cold war.

    In any case, I don’t think the 15 people who were happy about the Vance VP pick nor the frothing cult members who would still vote for Trump if his VP pick was Satan himself really care even if it were something more damning than a costume.

      I’m from Central America and the u.s fucked us with its CIA dick and set up death squads to execute my country men even suspected of communism. They used us as proxies in a civil war backed by the Americans and Soviets on opposite sides. And after my country was wrecked and bombed, Americans rebuilt it and now own it. Like a neo colony. And the politicians who killed all my country men to keep the Reds away from this hemisphere, now bow to Russia and suck Putin dick. And after bombing my home, they dared call me a wet back and potential rapist, for trying to flee to North America. To flee to the Empire that colonized us

        I just wanted to say I’m sorry for this, I know this to be true, and many of us here are not proud of the imperial/colonial/rampantly destructive aspects of our history, which are absolutely not something I can lay at the feet of only one party.
