Russia needs to be stopped (#3770)

     Between the far right hate groups and the Russian interference all over the world in elections we have identified our enemies. The far right hate groups are just a vehicle for the Russians to exploit so the root of the cause is the Russian ideology to destroy the west at all costs. If we thought the cold war was the end of Russian aggression we were sadly mistaken. Through putin the re imagining of the defeat of the west and its culture is playing out before our eyes. From America to Europe the intentional sabotage of our information services and election processes is taking place with the greedy help from conservatives around the world, republicans and tories alike, to dictators who are most interested in living in a world where the power to rule is absolute.
     With the election of trump and the keeping of the senate in the hands of republicans the Russians are assured that their success at rupturing our democracy will go unpunished. So the next phase for them is to keep the senate and the presidency in the conservatives hands while they literally tear down our policies of democracy. It is unfathomable to me that the republican party has so bought into the Russian agenda that they are willing to sacrifice the nature of our nations achievements. It is also hard for everyday conservative Americans to believe that the republican party would allow itself to be run roughshod over by leaders whose best intentions are not liberty, justice and the American way. They would rather believe that this is just a hard austerity gambit.
     Which plays into their narrative of hating those who are not them. Making America into a favored dictatorship is most welcome by Russia as they seem to have their straw man in trump to be guided by them. This infiltration by Russia into our political processes with impunity is solely the work of republicans who have found in Russia a partner for whom there is no equal. What republicans don't get however is that Russia is not to be trusted and although republicans feel favored by Russia now they will soon learn that even Russia will not tolerate a traitor even when the act has Russia where it wants to be. The republican party has sold its soul for 30 pieces of silver and when that little bit has been spent they will find that their hatred for democratic principles has led to the death of our democracy.
