I always thought that term was so corny. Gives “band kid obsessed with the Soviet Union” vibes.

This is such a reach lmao. The modern Russian state doesn’t use that term for its leader. Or are you claiming the GOP is influenced by a government that fell over a century ago?

I genuinely thought the word tankie came from the band kids obsessed with the Soviet Union and their military tanks

It wasn’t referred to as such by the Biden admin, but by media critics yeah. Then Trump came in and proudly started using it for multiple positions

Also numerous officials appointed by the dems have been referred to with that term. Alan Bersin was referred to as the border czar too.
