Re-Visiting Russiagate in Light of Ukraine War

Russiagate was never about removing Trump, but making sure Trump played along with their regime change plans for Moscow and manufacturing consent for the escalations we’re seeing today.

the U.S. needed to
attack Russia's economy, turn the world against Moscow and end Putin's rule.
Again the Puttanesca excuse. Retire Putin - and everything will be perfect. But, not exactly. They would appoint another person, from the same majority ruling party, with the same ideas and priorities. Maybe someone even smarter and tougher than Putin. No, the “change” would have to be more profound than just swapping one guy for another. It would have to involve “swapping” ruling political parties. Not very democratic - but nothing is too much for the sake of democracy.

Maybe our ruling elites should have hired Soros to do the job. He’d keep the process velvety smooth.
