How would that affect politics today? Obviously they would have not helped Trump in 2016, maybe Clinton?

The question makes no sense.

The world would be much better off. Living standards and human rights in the former Soviet bloc dropped off a cliff when the Union fell and have never recovered.

To be fair thats more on Yeltsin then it is on the collapse of the USSR.

Theres a reason a lot of Russians still like Putin and contrary to American news its not because he sends the average person to the gulag.

The fall was basically inevitable. Combination of a continually flawed economic model that wasnt going anywhere combined with Russian history of not being into any sort of collective type of leadership. A dictator like Stalin in the beginning - as vile as he was - honestly fit into the fabric of Russian leadership much better than what the Bolsheviks had really intended.

50 is a great artist, one of the all-time great rappers.

Oh, were you simply attempting to flamboyantly display like the peacock your fantastic lack of historical literacy? My apologies, carry on.
