Didn’t we already know this? I remember this being a thing during trumps first term and him doing absolutely nothing because he would’ve had to admit Russia did a bad thing which he’s mysteriously incapable of doing for reasons beyond anyone’s comprehension…
Yes.
Original reporting from June 2020:
We knew this, The GOP is controlled by a man who’s subordinate to the Russian mob, and convinced everyone not to care
We did, and it was equally ridiculous back then.
I don’t doubt the Russians would pay for kills, but $200,000 per soldier killed seems very high!
I think the Russians could offer $20,000 and get a similar response considering the average monthly* salary in is $242 (US). - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Asian_countries_by_average_wage
Apparently Iran was paying $1,000 in 2010.
In 2010, Iran reportedly paid Taliban fighters $1,000 for each U.S. soldier they kill in Afghanistan (equivalent to $1,400 in 2023).

If you consider the price of equipment, food, training, transport etc. it sounds like a bargain to me.
I mean, the price of an American soldier.
Yeah, fair point, and add to that the price of training and supplying a Russian troop to kill that American soldier, $200k would be a good deal. But still the local salary is so low I think they could pay less.
Now he’s just going to pay 200k directly to Trump
Paybacks are a bitch, Moskals
Hey, I’ve already seen this episode. What do you mean you’ve already seen it? It’s brand new…
Wow. Pretty out there.
Gotta say, that’s very fucked up.
