GOP hating on black people so much, they ran to RUSSIA and Putin.
That's the thing though. They're not witting accessories. The GOP hates Russia, they hate Putin, and they hate Donald Trump. They're just a bunch of weak, coward suit and ties who have been pulled into Trump fanatcism by their own base--whom they know are naive and can be easily manipulated by bigotry.
Putin knew exactly how to gain influence over the United States. All he had to do was prop up a habitual lieing, self-centered unapologetic racist public figure and white folks would be happy to live in a banana republic while being lied to every day. In fact they will defend his corruption passionately.
The Russians knew since the 1940s, when they were sending pro-communist, anti-racism propaganda to civil rights activists, black segregated soldiers, teachers, professors etc. that racism will always be the vulnerable Achilles hill of American society. It will always be the ace in their pocket to destroy this country from within. The one thing that can get Americans to accept lies and completely turn their backs on their country in favor of their race.
