I'm not claiming anything, I'm pointing out that muh Russia controls the GOP trope is inane, because it is.


So, your argument here is that the GOP is doing some things worthy of criticism so that makes spouting dumb stuff like McConnell is controlled by Putin ok?  

-I apologize, I thought you responded in the "those who voted for Trump" thread but I must have been mistaken.

-It really isn't, there were proven links to the GOP via various reports from congress over the last couple of years. Hell, the random trip there by sitting congress GOP congress members with no real reason, or maybe the Russian agent working through the NRA as a backchannel to the GOP add fuel to it? No, Putin most likely is not calling up Trump or McConnell. There have been a lot of weirdly Pro Russian moves made during this administration though that definitely appear to show a lot of favor to Putin.

-Nah, my argument here is that the GOP does nothing but childishly lash out and throw temper tantrums, like the most embarrassing one we have ever seen in politics playing out right now, and so simply throwing out the word "childish" is comical.
