Why is Russia such a shithole of a country?! Only 25 years ago it was devastated by communist rule, but even now Russian people live worse than Poland, Czechia and Slovakia, we're not even talking about Baltic states. By the way did you know that critisizing Putin's rule is a punishable offence in Russia? And their average monthly wage is ~$450? And transnational corporations are escaping Russia due to lingering economical sanctions and economic climate that has been worsening day by day, but also because of Russia's nightmare of infrastructure, inability to stabilize itself and tremendous bribes these companies have to pay to Russian government to be able to operate freely within the country?
Fuck you, Russia

Together, my friend, our countries will be made great again!

Because Russian economy minus Oil minus Weapons= Zero, maybe?

Russia will be stronk again.
The time is near, comrade.

>Together >my friend Stop bulshitting me. USA and Russia can never be friends.
Your country's ideology and martial doctrine is literally based on eradication of every trace of our people, history and culture.
Ask an average American if they would send nukes to Russia. They'd give you a positive answer. We can't be friends with you people.
Angel Scott
There's only one solution.
You know what you must do.

Just wait till after January 20. Together, we will accomplish great things.

Putin is going to play Trump like a fiddle m8.

It will be worth it.

literally all problems in Russia are a direct result of communism though
Russia was rapidly becoming western-tier prior to 1917

They have no leverage. If the Iraq War proved anything its that no one can stop the will of the US. Not the UN, no one.

David Kelly
>Russia was rapidly becoming western-tier prior to 1917 lmao, it was a feudal shithole, hence why it rightfully got destroyed in WW1 and ended up rightfully killing old Nicky
Carter Gonzalez
>rightfully killing old Nicky >rightfully Fucking bongs
Xavier Howard
That chances that happens is quite small. At most, the Russia will gain some global leverage. But "working together" is near impossible, despite Trump's delusion. Stronger men than him (Bush, Obama) have tried, and failed, to make nice with Russia.
Henry Kelly
will there be a revolution of some kind? or are the russian people deluded that its all the wests fault and that father putin will restore everything to its former glory?
Carson Turner
>Your country's ideology and martial doctrine is literally based on eradication of every trace of our people, history and culture. Not true at all.
Russia is a key piece of US history and cant be erased.

Russia's economy and its level of inequality is Latin American tier. If not for the nukes, if would be an irrelevant hellhole.

In USA, everybody lives in big mansion in Beverly Hills, drives Ferrari and creates supercomputer that fits in your pocket.
But Russia? In Russia everybody starving and Russia can only create shit from the asshole of peasants.
Dylan Carter
>Doesn't seem to matter to Trump one bit, as long as it's the opposite of what Obama would do, he'll be in favour of it no matter what. You dont really believe that do you?
Trump would never, EVER, enter into a 1 sided negotiation.

Norway uses its resources well, and it provides a strong welfare state and high living standard. Russia just spends the oil money on armaments and bribes.

Jaxson Watson
That's nice but how about the Gini index?
Christian Taylor
Why didn't you protect his smile?
Jacob Clark
Trump will just sell out the national interest in return for Russia spying on his enemies. Like he's already done
Eli Wright
Wrong pic.
Easton Brown
From everything I've seen/heard from him so far, he seems quite fond of doing the exact opposite of what has been US policy for decades, even if it's fucking retarded. He's all about "correcting" the "unfair deals" with traditional US allies but seems quite willing to bend over backwards for others.
Cooper Gray
This, Americans are deluded if they think their country is much better than Russia. The only difference is their ghettos sprawl outward instead of upward and are full of black crackheads instead of slav nodders
Andrew James
Brazil: aircraft, super companies known worldwide, agricultural technology and genetic research. Top university on earth.
Russia: poverty, prostitutes, stupid videos with crazy people, cheap oil.
Henry Green
Literally Gorbachev-tier ruler, but even worse. At least Gorbachev tried to reform the country, at the same time nicolas did nothing to prevent the upcomming disaster, which falls to the empire
Jacob Watson

Ryder Price

Liam Thompson
>Like he's already done Except he hasn't done that.
He may have asked Russia to investigate and expose his enemies but he hasn't sacrificed the nation yet.
>From everything I've seen/heard from him so far, he seems quite fond of doing the exact opposite of what has been US policy for decades But yet, you cant give examples.
For instance, Middle East policy will continue on schedule.
Jordan Murphy
had to disagree only with the top university. Our system is broken af
Jack Morgan

You've contradicted yourself.
Jayden Collins
Brazil has been the Country of the Future since ca. 1800.
No more bullshit pls, just tell us, when it'll finally happen.
[spoiler]It never will.[/spoiler]
Kevin Lee
>Middle East policy will continue on schedule. I never said that Trump will actually manage to change US policies, infact I think the republican congress will be against him as much as the democrats. And almost nothing about immigration, tariffs, russian relations etc will change.
I'm just pointing out that his personal opinions seems to be in favour of doing the opposite.
Wyatt Torres
American Gini is Russian tier you fucking gringo
Gabriel Lopez
>predicting the actions of a man who has said on record that he likes to be unpredictable >willingly joining the ranks of Nate Bronze wew

So hes the opposite of what Obama, but wont change any US policies?
You're aware of how autistic that is, right?
Adrian Mitchell
>Your country's ideology and martial doctrine is literally based on eradication of every trace of our people, history and culture. Stop listening to your insane state owned propaganda media. We don't want to destroy you we just want to dominate you :3 >Ask an average American if they would send nukes to Russia. They'd give you a positive answer. You're projecting here, ffs one of your news anchors threatened us with nuclear annihilation. We have some crazy people on our tv too but they haven't said anything that insane.
Kevin Nelson
>predicting the actions of a man who has said on record that he likes to be unpredictable Just because he himself claims he's unpredictable, doesn't mean he actually IS unpredictable. With enough data everyone becomes predictable to a certain degree.
Xavier Long
Do you even history, man?
Isaiah White
>They have no leverage. WRONG
All Trump cares about is his wealth, he'll sell out our national security if Putin lets him build some casinos in Moscow without blinking. Putin will run circles around that retard.
Easton Russell
I'm saying that his personal opinions is mostly the exact opposite of Obamas, or current US policy in general.
But that doesn't mean the everything he wants or wishes for will actually happen. He's president, not a dictator.
Isaiah Campbell
>But that doesn't mean the everything he wants or wishes for will actually happen No one said it would.
You're bringing that up now because there have been very clear example of how Trump will be different than Obama on policy.
>All Trump cares about is his wealth His wealth and businesses and the name of his family is at risk if he doesn't produce as POTUS.
Charles Green
yeah fuck you all
Caleb Lee
Not really tho
Even if he's as massive a failure as Dubya a third of the country will still worship him; that's a hundred million potential customers
Hunter Bennett
The US has bad areas. Russia has nice areas (mostly where Putin and his friends live).
Jordan Lopez
Customers for what? A casino in Russia?
Youre arent using much logic.
William Foster
>His wealth and businesses and the name of his family is at risk if he doesn't produce as POTUS. The Bushes have been 2 pretty awful presidents and 1 mediocre candiate, they're still one of the most well known names in US history and they still have millions and millions of people who will defend their actions and are fans of them.
Trump could nuke a state and large parts of the US would still love him.
Owen Gomez
>muh marxist leninist gommunism index
Leave it to a literal nigger to be retarded as fuck. The USA is only a good country, because of capitalism. Capitalism built that country, without the "Land of Opportunity" bullshit, nothing, NOTHING would be there, it would be a worse shithole than Latin America or even Eastern Europe.
You can meme about how trickle down economy isn't "working" the way raging socialists would want it to work, but America is and has always been a country built by entrepreneurs.
Would the Americans want all the Wall Street and Silicon Valley titans out of their country to get better statistics about >muh equality ?
American corporations and banks fucking DOMINATE THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD, of course it'll rock the statistics towards inequality.
But if those rich guys wouldn't be there, Americans would miserable as fuck. They wouldn't be better off not a single bit.
Adam Nguyen
>His wealth and businesses and the name of his family is at risk if he doesn't produce as POTUS. How so? Do you think Congress is going is going to expropriate his businesses for being a shitty president or retards will stop gambling at his casinos? Even if he is impeached he'll still be able to make money through speaking fees and influence peddling.
Jayden Morales
It's sad, Russia has a lot of potential but there is corruption on literally every level. I think it is the heritage of 75 years of communism.

He doesn't need Russian influences to be rich anymore and he doesn't need his businesses either. His name is etched in history. They are investors.
Nicholas Murphy
It was rapidly getting a lot better, it was just late to industrialize, the feudal part was ended in the 19th century and reparations payments were ended in 1907
Mason Thompson
I assumed it was obvious he was being sarcastic
Juan Scott
Only roughly a dozen of those are even available in retail here, and most are something as trivial as clothing or packaged food which really doesn't count. GM and Harley are the laughing stock of the motoring world for being greedy and archaic, and Apple has an equally mixed reputation for selling technology that's half lifestyle statement.
Brayden Nelson
Thats just not right Genuinely delete that
Jaxson Miller
You know what happens when you assume right?
Isaac Bailey
>They don't have businesses with their name on display. They still do speaking engangements for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars. They still sell books, do interviews. And if they built a a trashy Trump quality hotel/casino you don't think they'd still have millions of customers?
Gabriel Gutierrez
lolno, it was raw materials appendage and sales market for west
Matthew Rodriguez
>The Bushes have been 2 pretty awful presidents H.W. was a fine president you don't know what you're talking about.
Lucas Watson

Anthony Bailey
Do you live in Beverley Hills? What supercomputer did you invent?
Xavier Bennett
I was being sarcastic. Russians really think all Americans live in Beverly Hills.
Jeremiah Cox
stop bullshitting
Grayson Price
Well, putting him in the same category as his son may have been a bit harsh. But he was certainly one of the worst presidents in modern times, at least from a European perspective.
Carter Allen

Parker Cook
>Americans are deluded if they think their country is much better than Russia. I'll assume you're just looking for attention.
The US is clearly more accomplished and wealthy than the US.
And more so than Spain as well.
Jayden Evans
He made some very dumb decisions, like Bloody Sunday 1905. If he wouldn't have ordered the police to shoot the strikers (factory workers against inhumane conditions) who were not carrying red flags and singing the tsar hymn ffs, he wouldn't have alienated most of his public support.
Owen Nguyen
No, literally nothing wrong with it after 1911 Less societal freedom than medieval France beforehand though
Ryder Martin
>old Nicky Killing his family and kids was just cruel.
Dylan Allen
A US President doesn't need to take illegal deals from foreingers to enrich themselves.
You're just proving my point.
Jaxson Garcia
>tried to reform the country
Camden Davis
But he didnt order that, the captain took it upon himself to do it
Dominic Perry
>The US is clearly more accomplished and wealthy than the US. Go to bed, you're confused.
John Cooper
It always was cruel here. People don't have hearts.
Oliver Collins
Picture needs to be more complicated. There was substantial growth in agricultural productivity on private farms, but estates and village communes were getting poorer in the early 20th century. Urban industry was growing rapidly behind tariff walls but not fast enough to employ the surplus of rural labor, driving down wages and increasing social unrest in cities. And the bureaucracy was tremendously underdeveloped. Maybe without the stress of World War I a better, less reactionary tsar than Nicky could have put the empire on a sustainable path but it wasn't on one in 1913 despite GDP per capita having finally started to grow
Juan Jackson
>Americans are deluded if they think their country is much better than Russia. Wow a quick typo. That really makes this statement a lot more true.
Asher Garcia
Nicholas reluctantly consented to the creation of a parliament and some tentative steps towards constitutional government after 1905, but the entire enterprise was on shaky ground since there was no real check or balance on the tsar's power.
Tyler Bennett
It was late developing, i didnt mean it was good or finished rather than it wasnt hellish , especially bad or unliveable Fedualism wasnt even bad outside of Russia , although they at least they had houses, communities, spare time, freedom to marry, feast days etc unlike actual slaves
