i mean his strategy to try and approximate with china, ussr's biggest ally at that time, to make it easier to overthrow/control them. basically divide to conquer, but swap out the countries.

the republican narrative in general seem to be very anti-china and hint a lot about war with them, but not so much with russia which can be considered just as much of a rival if not more. especially right now with the ukraine war. i'm thinking republicans want to be on good terms with russia and ukraine be damned so they can more easily isolate what its currently a huge economic partner from china. they are currently doing this in india apparently successfully. so they are getting cozy with russians and being quiet about it to try and have them as semi-friends somehow.

big disclaimer though: i think this strategy is very dumb, and i doubt this will work. i don't think trump is capable of the evil genius villian shit kissinger was. just the comically evil dumb fascism we expect from him, and that no head of state not already aligned with the specific brand of us-republican fascism will take.

at best they will get used for russia's benefit. which is looking like the case already with all the suff coming out about it in the investigations lololololol

oh no, just one of the straws you can point at when someone tries to argue the us has freedom or democracy.
