Joy Reid: Republican Party Becoming ‘Pro-Putin’ Party Because He’s Advancing ‘White Christianity’

‘It’s shocking to see a Republican president essentially capitulate to almost everything Vladimir Putin could possibly want’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

REID: "Now we have a Republican Party that not only at its base is becoming pro-Putin, you're seeing this acceleration —"
WALLACE: "And it's not just the president. There are loud voices in conservative media who celebrate Assange, who praise just the brute strength of Putin."
REID: "That's right. And for a lot of reasons. The Alt-Right, for these sort of weird white nationalist reasons feel he's advancing white Christianity. Whatever it is, Russia is an adversary of the United States, wants to dismantle our influence in Europe. Trump seems to agree that we should have less influence in Europe, that we should detach ourselves from the NATO alliance, that we should even dismantle our cyber-security and make ourselves more vulnerable to Russia, make ourselves more vulnerable to their influence. It's shocking to see a Republican president essentially capitulate to almost everything Vladimir Putin could possibly want, the full menu, his Christmas list of what he wants from the United States and wants to do with Donald Trump."
