"A recent poll suggested that every non-US country in the world's G20 would vote for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump - except Russia. Why?"

(In case anyone thought Signy's support for Trump was out of the ordinary.)

Wow.

I truly NEVER keep track of Russia. And certainly not what Russians think of the candidates. You keep way better track than I do.

Do you have, like, a man-crush on Putin?

SAGAN: We are releasing vast quantities of carbon dioxide, increasing the greenhouse effect. It may not take much to destabilize the Earth's climate, to convert this heaven, our only home in the cosmos, into a kind of hell.

No sh*t!

Haha.

And truly kiki, it's not that hard. You see, the BBC and others have these things called "foreign correspondents" based in Russia, and it's kind of their job to 'keep track' of what Russians think. All I do is read the occasional article.

But thanks for your easily impressed-ness!

"All I do is read the occasional article."

Because the topic has your attention. Because you have a 'thing' for Russia, and Putin.

Well deduced, Einstein.

No, because wars and war crimes and humanitarian catastrophes in Syria and Ukraine should be worthy of all of our attention. And yes, that includes war crimes committed by the Russian government, and its ally, Assad. People who ignore all those, and STILL post Russian government propaganda like RT are the ones with a real 'thing' for Russia and Putin. Yes, that means you and Siggy.

I dislike Hillary and her equally-reprehensible husband because of the things they've done. I criticized Bill long and hard ... for DOMA, NAFTA, DMCA, for signing the repeal of Glass Steagall and signing the Commodities Futures Modernization Act (which brought us Enron) and for his welfare "reform". Bill was a money-licking whore with a dick. But in case you can't do simple math, that was in the 1990s... yanno, when you were still in diapers. And just to make more of a point of it, that was long before "Putin" ever came on the scene.

I criticized Bush long and hard, too, for increasing inequality, precipitating the financial meltdown, lying our way into two expensive wars which only made a clusterfuck of two nations in the mideast, and starting a program of mass surveillance. Again, LONG before "Putin" came on the scene.

And just for completeness, Obama is a dick too.

And Hillary is just as bad, if not worse. She's a money-licking neocon with a vagina. She combines the worst of Billy-boy and GWB. I should stop criticizing her for the very things I've criticized her husband that that other one in the past??

You've got a seriously twisted sense of priorities if you think Putin has anything to do with what I think of Hillary (or of Trump). That woman has been a disaster throughout her entire career, and she should scare the hell out of anybody with a half-brain.

I find it instructive that rather than talk about The Topic (Hillary and her record of "accomplishments" or Trump and his business record and political statements) you would rather insinuate about anything and everything else. You three seem fully incapable of honest discussion, and none of you are rational.

I don't talk about what "Russia" has done or is doing, or what Russians like or don't like, or what Putin is doing or planning unless it has some bearing on our interests as human beings. I'm more interested in what WE'RE doing to further our interests ... or, more likely ... to dig our own graves. Your fixation on Russia is bizarre.

You hate Bill and Hilary Clinton for the Defense of Marriage Act, a trade agreement and The Digital Millennium Copyright Act yet you love Putin.

Give me a break you hypocritical ass.

"yet you love Putin"

prove it

Oh yeah, you can't. Because you're nothing but a troll, trolling with your ad hominem trolling. Your ALWAYS off-topic trolling. Your fact-free trolling.
