Yes, Russia Helped Trump Win, But Not As You Might Think

Donald Trump needs to thank the Russian Army for his victory in the presidential election. No, there was no ‘Russian interference’. But the Russian Army’s victory over Biden’s liberal-globalist coalition of over 40 countries is the main factor that has led to political disarray and upheaval in the U.S.

Or let’s put it another way — if Biden had defeated Russia, then today he’d be celebrated as a great American hero, and he’d go on to win a second term despite his advanced age. Americans are bloodthirsty and love victory over foreign enemies. Likewise, we hate losers. And Joe Biden is a loser.

Look at how many U.S. presidents were war heroes before taking office — nine, in fact. These include George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Ulysses Grant, Teddy Roosevelt, and Dwight Eisenhower.

While Biden never served in the military, a victory over America’s leading enemy would cement his legacy in history as a mighty commander-in-chief. A defeated Russia would mean that we’d now have access to all that country’s resources, and the American economy would boom. A Russian defeat would mean that the road to global domination would be wide open. China would quickly make a deal with us.

The plan was to defeat Russia by the end of 2022 with a combination of crushing economic sanctions, international isolation, and battlefield victories. The plan almost succeeded. In late 2022, Russia was on the ropes. A NATO/ Ukrainian victory looked certain, and the U.S. was planning to overthrow Vladimir Putin and install its puppet in Moscow.

The White House smelled a glorious victory. Biden was about to accomplish what Napoleon and Hitler failed to achieve — a Western victory over Russia.

NATO’s Ukrainian forces would enter Donbass and Crimea, and wipe out the local Russian-speaking population much like the Palestinians in Gaza. Tens of thousands of civilians would be slaughtered, and millions more would be homeless as they fled NATO/ Ukrainian death squads.

But it never happened. Russia’s Army fulfilled its duty to protect its people. Biden’s massive liberal coalition was stopped and defeated, with no hope of victory.

Sure, there were many other factors contributing to Trump’s victory. But if Biden was a conquering war hero then none of that would matter. And Yes, he’d soon be starting his second term in office.
