US President Donald Trump said Friday that Russia had agreed to immediately supply more than 300,000 tonnes of diesel to US and global markets in an effort to cut fuel prices before November’s midterm elections. The move marks a stunning change of policy after the US and its allies hit Russia with waves of sanctions over its invasion of Ukraine.

      That’s the reason you gave, at least. If you have something better (hopefully something that actually engages with the meaning of the word “Nazi”) I’m all ears.

          Oh the Trump regime and its supporters are definitely fascist, but as for everyone else in America not stopping fascism doesn’t make one fascist; it makes one complicit (which I do agree a majority of non-fascist Americans are).
