Most o fthem have visited Russia, they like what they see. It's what they want for America. A complete Ologarchy with just a few thousand people controlling literally everything while the rest of the serfs live in squalor. Total control over the media, total control over law and order. Enemies can be disappeared. No rights for women, gays, or ethnic minorities. It's exactly what they've been working for in the US for decades.
