The US and Russia were allies during World War II and Herbert Hoover even bailed them out because he realized having them as an ally was better than the alternative. We spent 4 decades in an fabricated cold war I believe as an excuse to develop the nuclear, space, and information technologies. They called it a race but it really took us to places technologically we may never have achieved. Can we say the same thing about Ukraine? No.
Z has little future, the 2 most powerful men in the world are not going to tolerate this.
The neocons are red hot angry, to see us setting up financial deals with Russia. That will make us and Russia stronger, exactly what the NWO does not want. It would end the new cold war and our close ties to Europe. It shakes up the entire global picture. They would love to kill Trump.
They tried…AND WILL try again. The stakes are high…
