Vladimir Putin is a powerful ideological symbol and a highly effective ideological litmus test. He is a hero to populist conservatives around the world and anathema to progressives. I don’t want to compare him to our own president, but if you know enough about what a given American thinks of Putin, you can probably tell what he thinks of Donald Trump.
Let me stress at the outset that this is not going to be a talk about what to think about Putin, which is something you are all capable of making up your minds on, but rather how to think about him. And on this, there is one basic truth to remember, although it is often forgotten. Our globalist leaders may have deprecated sovereignty since the end of the Cold War, but that does not mean it has ceased for an instant to be the primary subject of politics.

Great article. Putin is all that is left that stands for a real independent leader. "No NWO for Russia" or something like that. He stands firm while the rest bow down.
ReplyDeleteA large plant in northern Russia which hired thousands of
Russians was being run by a few mafias that had layed-off
half the workers so they could conduct business under the
table. Putin threatened to shut them down and take the
plant over. Here, in the U.S. of A., it's okay to fire
Americans and replace them with illegals.

Mind boggling.
In regards to the terrorist bombing at the train station in
ReplyDeleteRussia, Putin had said in the past "I swear if they bomb Russia, in half an hour every muslim will die" Vladimir Putin
