Hey, the marks don’t scam themselves, you know. Well, in a way they do. But you know what I mean.

Is this a hoax like the coronavirus, or is this a hoax like global warming or is this a hoax like Obama’s birth certificate?

Or the hoax like invading a sovereign nation and stealing a massive chunk of it while the world looks the other way. Oh, and downing a civilian aircraft. All a hoax.

Tymothy Snider (professor at Yale) has an excellent series of short talks re Russia and America ( https://youtu.be/Ej_D0YkDjy8 ) and an excellent book also regarding Russia (The Road To Unfreedom…), which are very pertinent to now.

“The whole [Russia] thing turned out to be a hoax, which is why we’re ending sanctions,” makes about as much sense as, “The rumor that Mary and I were having an affair turned out to be a hoax, which is why we’ve moving in together.”

It’s interesting AF how the Don is cool with Putin’s efforts to crash the oil market and causing harm and unemployment through the domestic oil industries.
This acquiescence to Putin’s gross misjudgment and it’s harm to Americans doesn’t prove the Russian thing was a hoax but rather, it wasn’t. Here’s your quid pro quo for help during the 2016 and the 2020 reelection.

No, Donnie, it did’t turn out to be a fake.
But you have to insist that it was, because if the truth is acknowledged, then your presidency is not legitimate (aka “fake”).

Nobody knows. People are saying all kinds of stuff and we’re looking into it.
Have you even seen Crimea?
THAT’S A NASTY QUESTION!

Lifting sanctions is a real threat, probably the last thing Putin needs now.
