There is too much good in America. If I were Vladimir Putin, I would undo it all. For example, I would

  • cancel US wind power projects
  • sabotage the American EV industry
  • gut US expansion of solar power
  • expand Clean Air Act exemptions for coal-fired power plants
  • roll back rules governing clean water and climate change
  • roll back EPA toxic chemical regulations
  • gut the protection of endangered species habitats
  • export US government data about citizens onto insecure computers
  • punish any civil servants who fail to praise me with great praise
  • cease protecting people with vaccination programs
  • destroy NASA Earth-monitoring satellites
  • torpedo ACA health insurance subsidies, cut Medicaid and whittle away at Medicare
  • pardon violent thugs
  • force all agency heads to bend the knee
  • force all elite law firms to bend the knee
  • force all elite universities to bend the knee
  • force all corporate CEOs to bend the knee
  • deploy hooded ICE brigades to kidnap brown-skinned people and dump them in Gulags
  • send in shock troops to punish troublesome mayors and governors
  • create federal ownership of public corporations
  • emulate autocrats like of Erdoğan in Türkiye, Orbán in Hungary, Bolsonaro in Brazil and me
  • invite me to meet with the American president with no-one in the room 
  • invite me to come to Alaska and speak first to the press in Russian before the president has arrived at the podium

Yes, if I were Vladimir Putin, I would do these and all the things. To make Russia America great.

Perhaps you know someone who would help me?
