Who gives a fuck about their violent cuiltists? We'd just deal with them properly and that's it.
You rather instead allow them to grow more in power, until it literally becomes impossible to beat them.
You have to be a MAGA supporter or russian bot to not change your mind on something as basic as that. If I was Putin, this is what I'd do, fill social medias with comments like yours in the hopes it kills the americans' will to fight evil, so that they crumble more quickly, get destabilized and whatever for me to attack you and conquer you more easily. It's already happening, more than half of the Internet are apparently bots, this whole hysteria and stress the media is provoking on people with henious comments, fake news, exageratted bs is not random, they're not dumb or ignorant about it either as much as we love to believe people are better than that, that there's good in everyone when in fact that's not true. There are a lot of mentally ill sociopaths and psychopaths that only care about social acceptance, money and power, you just haven't met one personally in your life yet, probably never will.
As a mexican, a lot of us are already falling so, so bad for russian propaganda thanks to Trump and his supporters. We are starting to openly welcome China and Russia to come here and do whatever they want, because you refuse to change, to stop being so racist towards us. Seeing you say this shit, "no, leave the poor racist MAGAs alone, they can harm us, but we can't harm them" is just pathetic. We are dying because of people like you. Maybe the only way you understand and finally take some action is when something as big happens to your country as well. It's sadly the only way
You really can't see how a smart Trump would be the worst possible scenario? Trump is dumb. A person as evil as him but with half a functional brain would make the world tremble. Of course the world is better without Trump but do we want an alternative that could be more dangerous than him just by the fact of being smarter (something really easy at this point)?
