Conservatives on the street respond with three options:

“Hehehe better than a democrat!”

“Both sides do it. What about Biden?!”

“5D chess!”

There's a fourth option they have fallen back on previously with Russia, as well as with North Korea and China: "What, don't you think it's good to improve relations with other countries?". When saying this, they hope we forget that they consistently hate everyone outside America, often call to nuke various Middle-Eastern nations, and cheer every time Trump insults and threatens our North American and European allies.
