Pravda is just Rubles washed into dollars....

I'm going to pause for a moment....I have much better activities to attend to, then to waste the energy in my fingers, illustrating the fallacy of a fool...

But, like Arnold....

"I'll be back..."

a smooth-talking

Actually he really is not very smooth talking at all, his public speaker demeanor is quite pathetic.
Reminds me very much of, " are you smarter than a 5th grader"
At which Tramp fails miserably and sets a new low bar.

Your post is a candid illustration of my point about the total absence of international news, and the total ignorance of the world scene in the American media...Russia dont need US dollars no more for years...Asia go with them, and the world wait …. Then Pravda can be just rubles washed into rubles...If I can correct … :)

Don't go lumping me in there. I know perfectly well Russia has been diversifying out of dollars and into gold, bypassing the normal global dollar exchange system in favor of direct currency exchange with trading partners. Same goes for China.

Every time we foolishly use our dollar dominance to punish with sanctions we only encourage all the more strongly the move out of the dollar. Foolish, because it undermines confidence in the currency. Which being fiat, confidence is all.

Not that any of this is reported in "the international news" here, any more than the truth about the fake climate crisis or the truth about the billions democrats like the Bidens and Clintons have siphoned out of Ukraine. But the truth is there, you just have to go looking for it.
Which I do. And encourage everyone else to do as well.
