      Because it shows power to those that need to know.

      As the top post says: Republicans denied it happening. They might as well have played a soccer ball to Putins feet even though they’re supposed to play on opposite sides, and then wondering why he kicked it back in their face.

      They did that to show that they are in control. They can get whatever they want from a republican and spit in their face afterwards, because some idiots in the GOP are under their control.

      The Russian mobsters like to remind people of their reach like that.

      Its the same reason why they keep confirming people falling out of windows with two suicidal bullets to the head and such. It’s mobster whistles.

      IMO is because Russia is a pariah now. It’s the same rationale that made Putin endorse Harris.

      It’s the same narrative “we, the GOP, are against Russia… see? Putin endorses Harris. See? They fabricated a lie that Trump gave tests to Russia. Because Russia is afraid of the GOP”
