...

The only reason China can buy the AfD is because Russia's checks suddenly started bouncing.

You mean bouncing?

Gah, my bad, fixed.

There's no fixing that comment. A bounced check is one that didn't go through. How could China not getting its money from Russia be the cause of them being able to afford to buy something?

AfD is not getting their money from Russia so its turning to China.
