Don Jr. boasted of using Russian money long before the election. Trump has been a useful idiot for them since the 1980s.

That was not “asking for advice”, that was “receiving orders from the handler”.

T: “Hello my friend, I need your advice.”

P: “For you my dear friend, I will give it gladly!”

T: “Should I sell weapons to your enemies?”

P: “No, it is not a good idea, I strongly advice against that.”

T: “Thank you for your clear and unbiased answer, that is all I needed to hear”

I wonder if that was before or after this supposed interaction:

T: I said to Putin, ‘Don’t do it, Vladimir.’ And I told him things that what I would do. And he said, ‘No way.’ And I said, ‘Way.’ It’s the last time we had the conversation.

Yes that’s an actual quote from his Musk interview.

Functioning is contained in malfunctioning.
So only if that counts.

That’s unfair to cats. They actually have the capacity to love.
