No is really isn't

Creating uncertainty is what the Russian influencing campaigns aim to do. The US is as strong as ever and there is no reason to worry at all. We have the balance of powers for a reason.

Next you'll tell us Putin's Russia is as strong as ever

Russia is still a threat especially in the cyberspace. We are now in the age of cyber warfare where nations attack and try to influence each other.

Look up Viktor Orban and how he successfully dismantled Democracy in Hungary. The plan has already been laid out, and it's being followed precisely.

Seriously -- the parallels in that journey are shockingly similar.

The US is as weak as ever as we have a stacked system due to Republicans following the same playbook, and slowly tipping the scales over the time using gerrymandering and whatever they can manage to pull off, any time they can manage to pull it off. We're seeing less and less people responsible for more and more power. Our supreme court has ruled that the president is immune from prosecution, etc.

There are plenty of additional examples, but the only way you're arguing what you're arguing is if you haven't been paying attention. If you want more, feel free to look up Project 2025

I have looked it up and I think it was BS.

Also they said the same thing about Biden and we are still here.

Well that's plenty of proof that you didn't read anything about Viktor Orban at all. There was nothing about my previous reply that had anything to do with biden - not a single parallel at all. In fact, nobody of note has ever made any similar claim about Biden whatsoever. Thanks for taking the mask off. Have a great day.
