When the Wall came down, and the East German regime shortly after it, „Parties“ like the DKP (German Communist Party) and the PCF (French Communist Party) came close to evaporating, since the source of their financing no longer existed.

It makes me wonder about the financing behind people like Trump, Roger Stone, etc., if the Putin regime were to fall.
