WWII.

They're Russian assets. The GOP is the Russia's most impressive achievement in the cold war.

Essentially. After WWII, the US imported some Nazis in exchange for their research. This was a mistake. They are like an infection. You do not let any of it survive. You eradicate it

As if there weren't plenty of fascists in the US already. Like a certain Fred Trump, who was arrested in 1927 for taking part in a KuKluxKlan rally.

Yeah there were plenty of facists in the US already before WWII. Here's Madison Square garden in 1939.

Yeah but we got to go to the moon so there’s that

They actually tried to just poach the research and have American researchers do it, but they weren’t up to the task. They had to put the Nazi scientists in charge before the rockets started really working.

Not much of an achievement. The fuckers basically fell over themselves to suck Putin's dick.

The cold war started like 80 years ago.

Believe me when I say there were virtually 0 Americans falling over themselves to suck Putin, or any other Russian's dick in the 70s. This has been a century's long effort. The fact they fall over themselves to suck Putin's dick today is the achievement.

Never underestimate the adversary.

Decline of the Republican party took off with the dropping the requirement of "News" channels to actually have News.

Fox (Faux) news & Reagan started us on the road, Putin jumped on & up to pilot the train more recently. Propaganda and division are their standard bearers. They are now the fake news snowflake party (gays are ruining America! Bad books are corrupting our children! Immigrants are raping and spreading drugs everywhere!).

It is a terrorist organization. I wish defense department (& budget) would be used to dismantle Murdoch's & Putin's tendrils.
