Between her high votes and the “I’d rather be Russian than a Democrat” fascist merch in the U.S., it seems the true joke is on us, and the next set of cold “proxy” wars will be fought in the northern hemisphere.

France would still insist on we here calling it “sparkling wine”… but I’ll keep calling the stuff “champagne”… just to piss off their right-wing.
Champagne, champagne! Champagne! Champagne! Champagne, champagne!
