    Such is the point. There’s a reason Donnie started his first term so aggressively picking fights with Canada and Norway. Fulfilling Putin’s wish.

    Also diverts attention from Ukraine.

      It really does look like it. Big Oligarchy (Putin among them) saw our supposed “shining city on a hill” and paid their boy to set that city on fire, sabotage its foundations, and scare away the populace.

      Assets are much cheaper, and less uppity, in times of chaos.
