I've known a few Russians here that are in different businesses, the ones I've known have been very independent and have done a variety of things. I have found their stories very interesting and have asked a lot of questions concerning why they left, how things were in Russia. Being creative entrepreneurs they had a perception that Russia was not the place to be if you didn't have the connections, especially organized crime wise. When they said the name Putin it was like they were spitting something foul out of their mouth.

Their views on Trump is that his war on media, lies, propaganda, and the people who support Trump and their values are a replay of what's bad about Russia, the thing that they left to get away from.

Look at Russia, your view. Looking at people who go out in the streets at great risk considering how hard Putin can use the police and military to come down on them. Do you think it is conservatives who support Putin out there protesting? Of course not, it is the progressives, liberals if you want to call them that who object to tyranny and dictatorship.

It is the same thing here, conservatives supporting the same thing Putin is, progressives and liberals objecting to everything this Putin like president stands for. The same dynamics play out over and over, the progressive president Obama imposed sanctions, didn't give Putin anything he wanted. This president supports and admires Putin along with several other dictators in the world.

I am highly skeptical of a Russian immigrant who comes here and sounds like a Trump loving activist. Why did they leave Russia if they love Putin so much?

I suppose you are talking in part about me,Woodguru....I already told you why i support President Trump My biggest support of him goes to his Immigration policy...I wasnt there when Putin became President so im not gonna argue with you about it,However i know a lot A LOT of Russian immigrants of my generation and younger who had no problems voting for President Trump.....And although i have been citizen of this great country for 34 yrs,i dont really care what you or anyone of your ilk think of me or my record of voting for Trump...And in conclusion the only thing i'll say i would do it AGAIN!!!

After 34 years, you cn drop the Russian because you are an American. By the way, your candidate won and splinterhead's criminal lost.

I know right? Let's attack Russian immigrants who came here legally, became citizens and contribute to society. But let's not mention Muslims "refugees" who are here to undermine and destroy our society. That's politically incorrect. I guess Russians being white is what makes them fair game for this "hate speech". Even many of the Vietnamese boat people who came here and were put on full welfare out of cultural guilt have begun to pull off the public teat and live like regular people.

Every perverse thing they say highlights who they are and what they're about.
