Funny how Trump was "tougher on Russia than any other President" but he's not on the stop list

Russia has imposed sanctions against US President Joe Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and other US officials, the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement published Tuesday.

“In response to a series of unprecedented sanctions… from March 15 of this year, the Russian ‘stop list’ includes on the basis of reciprocity President J. Biden, Secretary of State A. Blinken, Secretary of Defense L. Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff M. Milley, as well as a number of departmental heads and well-known American figures,” according to the statement.

Other members of the Trump family, Elliott Abrams, Steve Bannon, Steve Miller, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Roger Stone, the man who suffered more than Jesus according to the right AKA Michael Flynn, and messianic figure to the Qheads, Q, are also not included.

Interesting.

And just remember: You could also put Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, AOC, and Cori Bush on the stop list and they'd wear it like badges of honor. Let's find out who'd be complaining about it though.
