did search engine manipulation do similar? how much money is the constant negative coverage worth?

You keep bringing up search engine manipulation

the constant negative coverage is a fait accompli after he's president, during the campaign it was free publicity

why did the mainsteram media hate trump during the campaign?

immigration, etc

stuff americans feel strongly about

even fox news was anti trump during the campaign

Well he was a huge novelty in the campaign

Look at how they treat bernie or ron paul?

way different

if they REALLY hate you, they never talk about you

We’ve reached a sort of fatigue interestingly

and even the impeachment process helps Putin, because it helps undermine faith in american govenrment

at least Sh0t argues in good faith I really commend the guy

hence that crazy dude taling about 'we will get our guns, etc"

Putin can't lose

he's a G

the usual people who match Russia in these moves unfortunately drank the koolaid, probably on that racial stuff

Yeah he’s an authoritarian dictator

He’s quite good at it

Though he’s not particularly good at running Th country

definitely not

And made it fairly easy for Obama to destroy his economy

Which is a reason he wanted trump so bad

From the POV of a russian geopolitical strategist, they pulled their nuts out of the fire big time

Same with the UK too

Yeah

Only country i'm not sure about is Germany

But think of how big a risk it was

Because if Clinton won, which was a more likely outcome

I don't think they had a choice by then, we might have actually encouraged them to get gangsta

She could come down hard with sanctions

yea if HIllary won, we'd still be 2014 status quo there

I think it was just a move of desperation

I think it would be worse frankly

I agree, thats what i mean

To me the Iran deal was a big part of it

She could have blocked a lot of lower level imports, not just the oligarch money movement

Yeah no doubt

If Iran can ship oil to Europe, Russia is fucked

yup, having that outlet was their goal

Merkle is the one I can't read

Austria is obvious with that natural gas deal

I read german politics and I see stuff on her from the point of view of 'staying around too long'

Paul Lever's book is great too

I think Merkel is a savvy player with an precarious domestic politic situation

Christopher Story always called the EU the European Soviet

Could Russia lure Greece away?

Is putin setting up the gentler, kinder Russia with his African debt jubilee?

Yanus on Vladimir

Lol that sounds like a fantasy

Only if Putin is willing to invade turkey over Cyprus

He can play peacemaker

might be talking to Erdogan about using that as a chip to get Greece into the orbit

That doesn’t align with Greece’s domestic politics in the latest election

IF Erdogan has the long game in mind, you never know

(pure thought exercise)

Lol I would bet anything against that happening.

Haha fair

New democracy has...40% Syriza 30

```He also praised Cyprus for its success in handling the economic meltdown and its upcoming exit from the bailout programme saying: “Unfortunately we cannot say the same for Greece.” He added that Cyprus should serve as an example for his own country.

```

That's Mitsotakis

They might be down

They don't seem like hardliners over Cyprus, but I dunno greece that well

Good interview, Maria is always good

She is going to be at IJF 2020 hmmmm. I should try my luck!

```France has a plan for dealing with European Islamic State fighters: get Iraq to handle them. While competing political train wrecks dominate the headlines in the U.S. and the U.K., the French foreign minister recently took a trip to Baghdad in an attempt to warehouse European jihadis, particularly French ones, far away from the continent.```

amen

nance is the real deal too, 30+ years military intel and beyond

DEEP STATE I GUESS

Does anyone seriously think Trump wasn't looking for a quid pro quo on Biden? Even if you're a hardcore Trump supporter it just reeks of trump.

GG @pennypal, you just advanced to level 11!

Did you not get the memo? It was quid pro quo, but it's okay now

See, now it's not a big deal. Even though that *seemed* like the big deal earlier, now everyone is just on the same page

Quid Pro Quo

The Quid Pro Quo is the least of it

We have a fucking Russian agent in the white house

He's a fucking traitor and these fat, wrapped-in-the-flag, racist, dented brain babies can't accept that because admitting they were fooled is too difficult for their ego

Lol all because these sick fucks want to find a private dick pic or something to blackmail or discredit whistleblowers with

pretty much

Like what happened to Katie Hill

But dumber because that stuff shouldn't discredit your whistle blowing

Oh well

They don't have the integrity to tell their people 'this is the investigation stage'

Any whistle blower who isn't a squeaky clean white (natural born!) American male is in trouble

And even then, they'll dig up some bullshit

As vague as "Democrat ties"

They know if the truth got out, they would lose enoguh senators probably

And say that he's obviously a partisan agent

Paul's behavior is especially worrying, could it just be money?
