      The right wing aligning with Putin is disturbing as hell, in terms of the clearly anti-democratic trajectory of the GOP, but suggesting that they're doing so because of "kompromat" is really tedious. They're just assholes!

      "Kompromat," an insidious Russian word which cannot possibly be expressed in english, if you pretend the phrase "compromising material" does not exist.

      It's all so stupid. Aligning with Putin because he has compromising info on you is actually morally less bad than aligning with him because you love dictatorship or want the white nations to join in a race war against China. So aside from being wrong, it's exculpatory!

          This will split the conservatives between the guys who get Russian wives from overseas dating sites and the guys who get Asian wives from overseas dating sites.

          Fair, but for some of them - most notably Trump - it’s almost certainly both.

          I think they want to preserve the West Wing fantasy of an honorable, principled, intelligent good faith Republican party they can agree to disagree with. The only reason they aren't acting like that is because an outside force is blackmailing them.
