Recall that Comey’s splendidly-timed October Surprise led to much speculation about how he (qua Dudley DoRight) was merely reacting to the threat of leaks from rightist elements in the NY office.
Funny how “left” and “right” have switched places with respect to russia.
I have an ugly speculation about that… The “Right” hated Russia when Russia was, you know, “Communist.” Now that they’re an unabashed Kleptocracy, well, heck, the “Right” admires them.
Most of the Russia love is from the religious fundamentalist wing, not the corporatist wing as such. The Commies were atheists, but now Russia is a country of God-fearing defenders of white Christian privilege.
Right. Right… us against the Muslims, and all that. Yeah, I’m sure you’re right.
It seems to have coincided with when Russia turned Fascist and got caught meddling in our elections.
