Brezhnev 2.0

Vlad is really rocking the retro Soviet show trial thing.
Last week he ordered a court to find a dead man guilty.
This week he orders another court to convict his chief naysayer on trumped up embezzlement charges.
Hey, maybe you can dig up the Czar and kill him again?

You're a busy dude Vlad, checking your decrepit conscription armed forces during the largest post Soviet war games; riding in a sub, the only thing I haven't see you do is inoculate kids against disease.
I mean a midget with your talents should never allow himself to be limited when the cult of personality is still under construction. Too many ways to endear yourself to the people with propaganda based in fantasy.
Then again isn't all your propaganda fantasy?

Unlike our own leaders who bungle about blindly killing innocents with "signature strikes" from drones; you target your foes with phony legal charges, long predetermined sentences in far off gulags...
Actually you're not a whole lot different than Barry are you?
Barry likes to hide behind "state secrets", keeps people locked up without charge or trial for years on end in a prison he promised to close six long years ago. Prosecutes in secret courts without real due process, and allows testimony derived from torture to be used in those courts.
So no Vlad, you're no worse than Barry the Constitutional law professor.

What does that say about us?
The people who allow ourselves to be lead by evil?
