Why Russia?
The DS could have picked any country they wanted to, to attempt to link DJT to and claim that he worked with them to steal the election in 2016.
So Why Russia?
My Theory:
Boomers!!
Majority of Citizens begin to lean conservative with age, and the Boomer are ripe to begin their transition to sanity.
So you pick the one country that brings back old fears, Russia(Soviet Union) and the Cold War. Instant fear and hatred fills them as they remember the trauma from decades past.
Due to the onslaught by DS, DNC, MSM; many Boomers who would have transitioned to the Republican Party are hellbent on ignoring that habbenings.
Just a thought…..
