Russia is run by the Russian mafia and is effectively a dictatorship and police state, where people do not have freedom. NATO is comprised of western democracies where people do have freedom. Russia is our enemy. They attacked us undermining our election. ALL of our intelligence agencies have said so for the past 18 months, over and over. We should not be attacking our NATO allies and praising dictatorships. First it is stupid. NATO protects us as much as we protect them and was formed as an alliance against Russia. Without NATO we stand alone against the world. And secondly, it is immoral to support countries that oppress their people. Trump believes Putin over all of our intelligence agencies. Trump attacks NATO while praising Putin. Anyone who cannot see how wrong that is really needs to better inform themselves. And yet 90% of Republicans support Trump, so that shows the entire party is complicit in the horror.
