Love the meme, but at least Sauron was a genuine threat. Russia's purchasing power is eclipsed by Europe and the US more than tenfold. It's an embarrasment that we simply don't out-spend Russia's weapon-manufacturing capabilities to properly bolster Ukraine's defense.

Russia's threat is their intelligence and manipulation network. They literally took over our country and baiting and funding a moron.

A country founded by slave owning tax dodgers with the "ideals" of those slave owning tax dodgers enshrined in its constitution can only be so free.
