No, I’m asking you what saying that Russia supports trump has to do with that
So name something
So Putin wants to make sure that Russians are happy that he’s providing support to trump
what support, verbal support?
we're talking about verbal support still right?
Are you going to answer the question?
yes please clarify though
we're talking verbal support rigth
We’re talking about a media strategy
ok I'm typing it but I wanted to clarify
Material support
A close relationship between them
what "material" support
Close diplomatic relations, election support, all of it
Please try to focus
I’m talking about the media strategy
I am but you are now jumping from topic to topic at first it was just the TV
don't project
We are talking about Putin’s media strategy
good me too but now you jumped to other things
You would understand why we are where we are
and I'm trying to type the answer but I keep having to store it in my clipboard to answer these in-between things you're saying
New Tinashe album tonight at midnight!
Then type your answer
I am ffs
Whether you believe that Putin offered material support to trump is immaterial to this discussion
maybe I didn't explain it good enough
America is doing better than Russia
Russians ask "why is America doing better, can we do the same thing so we can be doing better?"
Putin doesn't want russians to have the sovereignty americans enjoy with free market, gun ownership etc etc etc
so what does he say "actually trump is super good for americans you guys, but you can't have the same things cause it would be bad for you?"
he has to say "actually this is bad for americans, so you don't really want it, in fact, we should endorse it so things get worse for them"
this makes their leader seem smarter and in more control over the situation
Putin might be a patriot, but he's definitely an authoritarian
If thy were true chlorophyll
Sometimes that's evne more dangerous than a disinterested dictator who just wants money
he can't be letting Russians having any fancy ideas of wanting the same things we americans enjoy, it has to be painted to them like a dark dystopia
Why is Putin supporting trump on state TV
The problem with your theory
that's exactly what I just explained
No, you didn’t
You are explaining why they’re saying Russia ought to be happy trump is in power
what would it mean if he said "we need to get rid of Trump"
it would mean he sees Trump as a threat
But since they’re offering actual support
Literal help
no please read carefully 😭
