Apropos of nothing Russia refused to send condolences to Israel for the loss of life.

How does MAGA reconcile their support for Russia and for Israel? The Bible instructs us that no person can serve two masters. He will grow to love one and hate the other. Maybe they can reconcile the two because they are basically dullards.

Russia and Israel use to be at least cordial but alas Putin have been instilling antisemitic undercover for a while. Allies to Russia in most part are antisemitic, i.e. Belarus, Hungary, GQP, Musk, and now Slovakia to name a few.

no reason to actually try and have coherent leadership and rational governance.

The holding of two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind at the same time. An absolute requirement for life in an authoritarian society.

Knowing that two plus two equals four, but accepting, seeing, that it equals five because the dear leader says it

Knowing an election was won fairly and honestly but accepting simultaneously as fact that it was stolen because that’s what your trump-humper fuckstick zombie-cult leaders tell you to believe.

I don’t think they’ll have much problem with this contradiction at all.

Republicans are deemed "pro military" when they openly prevent senior military position appointments, their current leading presidential candidate puts down fallen soldiers as "loosers" and has called gold star families "nasty" when they dare confront him.

Russia is dependent on Iran's drones and other weapons. Iran is the puppet master of Hamas.

Iran feeds Russia with one hand and Hamas with the other. Russia is not biting either.

Looks like Iran, the Islamic theocracy and international sponsor of terrorism, has the former superpower by the balls.
