Some in MAGA have already began evaluating Donald Trump to the slain Putin opponent Alexei Navalny.
Former Rep. and New York gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin posted, “As the world reflects on the murder of Alexei Navalny at the hands of Putin, it’s worth remembering that Democrats are actively doing Biden’s bidding as they also try to imprison his chief political opponent, Donald Trump, remove him from the ballot, and ensure he dies in prison.”
Within the MAGA instance, Trump is Navalny, and Biden is Putin.
Again on Earth, there isn’t any connection between Trump and Navalny. Donald Trump tried to destroy democracy by overthrowing the federal government. Navalny was a Putin critic who wished to finish the authoritarian regime in Russia. Trump is charged with crimes which are a results of his perception that he’s above the legislation and doesn’t need to comply with the principles of a democratic society. On this comparability, Trump is Putin.

Navalny was persecuted for opposing Putin.
Trump is being prosecuted for violating the legislation.
These two issues aren’t the identical.
President Biden has nothing to do with the prison instances towards Donald Trump. The overwhelming majority of the 91 felony prison counts that Trump is dealing with are for crimes Donald Trump is alleged to have dedicated earlier than Joe Biden took workplace.
Navalny was courageous. Trump is a coward. There is no such thing as a comparability between the 2 males and their conditions.
