Republicans support Russia though, for completely unclear reasons that make no sense. Well, republican pundits and also roger waters…

So do nazi parties across Europe. Some sort of enemy of my enemy thinking plus love for the kind of leader Putin is.

Yeah, I think part of it is their reflexive contrarianism, where "Demorcat Party LIKE Ukraine, so we will oppose it! They hate Russia, so we love it!" And yeah, basically Putin has the same politics as they do: fascism. It's astounding to listen to things he says (as in, the particular style of manipulative lying) and realize it sounds exactly like the BS that Republicans say.
