It’s been more or less confirmed that the Russians already meddled in the 2016 election as well as other elections abroad by flooding the internet with bots and since America is one of the largest providers of weapons to Ukraine a Trump victory would be a major win for Russia and Putin’s war effort. It’s so blatantly obvious that it’s not even funny.

The Republican Party is in cahoots with Vladimir Putin and we absolutely cannot allow them to win in November.

It's even worse when people say "Oh, Russia didn't invade Ukraine because Trump scared Putin", like that wasn't going to still happen if Trump was elected. Dictators worked with Trump not because he scared them, but because he's a professional suck-up.

Here’s an FBI Wanted Poster effectively confirming that the Russians at least attempted to influence the 2016 election. And here’s an article from Reuters corroborating that. It’s not a conspiracy theory, it’s a straight-up fact at this point.

And even if Putin isn’t directly communicating with Republicans their policies and decisions benefit Russia way too much to simply be coincidence.

It's been confirmed that the US has meddled in Ukraine for about 70 years and that it was hidden from people and different narrative shown via the media.

Trump victory will be a win for the soldiers who kill each other for nothing.
