        This is a fundamentally delusional prescription of the state of US politics, and for Krugman to propagate it is so insidious because it's going to sorely misdirect otherwise well-intentioned Americans who want to do good.pic.twitter.com/5iKBTvy3NY

        I am just amazed that someone could conclude that this GOP bill is not exactly what the entire GOP wanted for DECADES, but is somehow the result of a "foreign power".

        Does that dynamic you just outlined explain why my rather leftist social welfare adjunct prof was very into Krugman during the recession, or did Krugman get worse?

        Put Krugman and Obama in the same room, & Obama's admitted 'contemplation' of being gay would be in full fantasy mode. Krugman would drop down and fellate that guy so fast.

        Oh boy. I'm saying, when was the last time Trump said anything critical of Russia? Or any despot for that matter?

        What do you think Obama, and Hillary attempted to do for years? Meanwhile Russia committed multiple acts against humanity. It was a lost cause. They're not an ally with Putin.
