(77,669 posts)I do not have a firm opinion on Russia and Vance. On one hand, Putin wanted the felon, to damage the democratic foundations of our country. And the felon has done that. On the other hand, the felon has been a bit lippy about Putin in the weeks before the Epstein files became of central interest. It is unlikely that Putin would allow the yappy pup to alpha-male him.
It would be safe to say that European countries would prefer Vance to the felon. For example, let's take England. If someone there had evidence of the felon & Epstein's being two wild and crazy guys, and knew the felon did not understand the language of the decency to respect traditional international relationships, they might send a message in the tongue the felon does understand. I would speculate that this is more in play than Russia. But that is just my opinion, and really, what does a woodchuck like me know? I mean, other than that some OP/threads on DU are getting attention beyond our community?
