    military follows economy. if your economy is shit your military will become shit eventually.

    I think your vastly underestimating the time line here. The 8 years of the Trump presidency is our last shot. At the end of this we will either permanently be on the road to American resurgence or Chinese Hegemony.

    When historians think of the fall of an empire they always look at the final invasion as the date missing the fact that that date has been predetermined already because of the previous actions. Its like a car crash. There is a point where you can no longer evade it even if the crash itself hasnt happened yet.

    In the view of Moscow and Beijing it is the US that is trying to take the entire world unipolar and turn it into its own monopolistic sphere of influence by imposing on others its values, which it proclaims as universal,” he writes. “What Moscow and Beijing are trying to achieve is not spheres of exclusive influence, where they will be able to do as they please without any interference from the outside world, but an international agreement on a new set of rules, which would suit the interests not only of the US and its allies but of other major international players.”

    Lukin also believes the Ukraine crisis has accelerated the Russia-China rapprochement, pushing Moscow to seek economic opportunities in China in the wake of western sanctions. China’s efforts to develop a high-tech weapons system to counter the US military’s edge has, in turn, seen them seek more Russian assistance.

    Don't subpoena the translators; subpoena Trump.

    Well, Putin invades his neighbors, poisons people in Britain, uses information warfare to tip the scales in western democratic elections, and is a murderous thug.

    The ads weren't ignored. In fact, the Russian-created memes on Facebook were shared on these very boards by Conservatives and Trump supporters.

    We know it was Russia who hacked the DNC; Putin ordered it and Trump gave them the cue.

    The same is true in reverse, as regards the left.
