Monday, March 3, 2025 - Amerika and the Russian ASSets that rule it
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
Back from my week-long Puerto Rican birthday vacation only to step back into the booth and have to tee off on arguably one of the most shocking and embarrassing displays of foreign diplomacy in American history. You can't tell me my eyes didn't see what they saw and ears heard what they did: Donald Trump and JD Vance are Russian assets. There's no other explanation for their revolting pivot on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his war-ravaged country. I suppose it's also just coincidental then, that the same day that went down, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth ordered cyber command to cease its offensive operations against Russia. This all jus reminds me of that pretty mediocre 1987 ABC-TV mini-series: "Amerika." The set-up to it sounds too eerie to miss ,though: a bloodless takeover of the U.S. by the Soviet Union finds a nation stunned to awaken to the reality they're being governed by the Kremlin. Whelp. ------- CNN's John King - himself a rancher (who knew?) - caught up with a three-time Trump voter who personifies the MAGA voter, by the way: knows Trump's unlikable, bad for the economy and his immigration policies are inhuman and will affect his walle (and hurt folks he's become friends with and respect), but he'd still vote for the guy. It's almost comedic; except in Russia, you're not allowed to laugh at your leaders.
