"Soviet Yugoslavia?!"

[ProudMNDemocrat]

1. Must be the heavy accents.....

of the Eastern Europeans. Can't understand a word they are saying and thus, easy to control.

[YoungDemCA]

2. Sarcasm?

3. That's a minor mistake on Joy's part...

Yugoslavia was generally considered a "communist" country, but it never participated in the Comintern organization of the Soviets and did not align itself with them. Tito was rather fiercely patriotic and independent. He didn't care much for Stalin, though the two shared many character flaws and political strategems.

4. Soviet Yugoslavia was a forced combination of two historically rival nations into one...

and a Soviet satellite state.

7. No such thing as "Soviet Yugoslavia"

Yugoslavia was formed out of former Austro-Hungarian territory, and was successor to a de facto state ('The State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs') based on pan-Slavism. It also wasn't a Soviet satellite state; Tito was the founder of the "Non-Aligned Movement".

5. His Russia fetish extends into how he chooses brides. I still think Melanie is an agent under Putin.

trump has been a Russia jumper since the 80's, that we know of. Why not assign agent Melania to seduce, birth a child, and control this guy?

10. The russians have alays used pretty agents for the honeytrap control jobs.

11. I used to work in intel. I wish so much that they'd release the cautious briefings that we got

about how to treat compromising positions and the people that would put you in these positions.

I love watching people in the know when they want to bang their heads on the desks while being interviewed. They know how trump team are and they know how bad Russia has infiltrated and compromised this entire cabal.

6. Xenophobia and ignorance: not just Republican traits? (nt)

[OKNancy]

8. No. She made a minor error but nothing she has ever done or said would

lead anyone to believe your assessment. In fact in that twitter thread from two days ago, the only people raging against her are Republicans and BernieBros.

9. Ivana basically grew up in Soviet rule

Melania came from that region when it was an "independent country" BUT let's face it 2 of his 3 wives come from an area of the world that has been controlled by at the very least Authoritative rule. Is this something that should is somehow influencing Trump's love of Russia/Putin

[revmclaren]

12. My thoughts too.

Too many coincidences that are not.

But for some, any reason including 2 day old tweets to bash our allies in the fight against trump because....well I'll not comment more.
