to Putin than Trump and the many of the Rethugs. Not as hostile as I wish, not even close, but still, no comparison in terms of sycophancy. Zero chance a Trump administration with or without a Rethug Congress would be supportive of Sweden and Finland and Nato itself.

I also am a British citizen (US, by birth, and Swedish (I live in Stockholm at present) as well) who grew up in west London (South Kensington), btw.
