No. I don't watch TC. It was a genuine question. So far all I've gotten was a couple names, a video with several propaganda clips and a photo. Show me a Trumper who says something to the effect of 'I support the Putin/Russian regime and hope Ukraine is defeated'. There are many people who feel this is a war we should not be funding.
Tucker Carlson isn’t just saying he doesn’t want to fund Ukraine. He’s saying that Zelensky is corrupt and he has no problems with Putin. Given this is pretty much a binary situation that is supporting Russia over Ukraine.
TC said that. I just told you of a Trumper who said that. You can keep moving the goalposts but it doesn’t make it any less true.
Man what a b**** this guy Orban is. "Looking at the reality, looking at the figures, looking at the surroundings, looking at the fact that NATO is not ready to send troops, it's obvious that there is no victory for poor Ukrainians on the battlefield," he said. "That's my position." Orban added that "our heart is with the Ukrainians" and said "we understand how much they suffer". "Escalation should be stopped and we should argue in favour of peace and negotiations," he told the forum. Maybe Hungary can't fight Russias alcoholic prison army but Ukraine is doing ok it seems Why do American right wingers like this trailer park emperor? He seriously ****ing sucks @AroundTheWorld
You asked for examples. Do you own damn research instead of playing the "I'm ignorant and don't pay attention" card. If you want to remain stupid, fine. But the answers you got were real - don't expect everyone else to cater to your unwilllingness to learn things on your own. These were people who have openly expressed support for Russia/Putin and against Ukraine. If you don't know about those things, that's a you-problem.
Look dude. The accusation was there were 'many' Trumpers who support Russia. I simply asked for examples. This is not my argument to defend so I do not need to 'do my own research'. Show me actual clips with full context or actual quotes. All you did was show me a photo of Marjorie Taylor Green. Lazy. I am not denying there isn't a single individual who doesn't support Russia. There are plenty of extremist on all sides. But to insinuate there is a significant and meaningful group of Republicans who support Russia is ignorant. You are never there to correct your partisans when I keep getting labeled as a pro-russia putin boot licker simply because I believe this is not our war to support. Getting accused of being Pro-Russia because one doesn't support the war is tiresome. If this war doesn't wrap up sooner than later, more people will grow tired of supporting this war.

haha.. you literally asked for ONE Trump supporter who also takes Putin’s side. Now you want to act like you meant to ask for MANY examples and we are all dunces because we couldn’t anticipate and prepare to debate against your goal post movement tactics. You prove constantly what an unserious person you are. The fact is the base of the GOP voter 100% wants our government to operate somewhere between Hungary and Russian forms of autocracy. So it’s natural that MAGA voters and their propagandists will be somewhere between sympathetic to full on supporter. That’s just the way it is and the reality we have to constantly deal with. There is no equivocation on the “other side” like you are saying. Nobody on the left is rooting for Castro to come back alive, invade and conquer Panama (I can hear you now whining that this example is good enough for YOU) and is openly supporting the US becoming it’s own version of Communist Cuba of Ho Chi Min’s Vietnam. Peacefully protesting for expanded health insurance, racial justice, or a womens right to their own body isnt the same as literally supporting a candidate who just tried to overturn our democracy to become an autocrat… which youve openly said here you support. So please do us all a favor and GTFO with your equivocation.
You asked for a single example of a Trumper who supports Russia. You got several. Then you claimed that you got "no answers", which was simply an outright lie because people didn't bother to google and post quotes for your lazy self. Why would I defend you? You literally quoted propaganda straight from the Kremlin (through Elon's twitter tweed) about Ukraine demanding men come back to the country. You claimed Russia was prospering while Europe was struggling, when Russia was the only economy in recession. You said Ukrainians should give up to save their livesand let Russia take over because it's the nature of power, while pretending to care about what the Ukrainian people want (they are willing to die for their freedom). You said this is partially NATO's fault for expanding, despite the fact they weren't. You said it's understandable Russia doesn't want NATO on it's border, despite NATO already being on it's border. It goes on and on, and once you're proven wrong, you pretend it didn't happen and move on to the next claim. No one's criticisms of you are based on the US support of Ukraine or involvement in the war. They are based on your own comments about Russia and Ukraine independent of the US. If you don't want to be called pro-Russia, stop repeating Russian talking points and propaganda straight from Putin and the Kremlin.
