Salvini is shit.
He's been actually paid by Russia for years. But he's so dumb he would do the job for the Cremlin for free too. Giuseppe Conte is another populist shit.
There's plenty around of these people: AfD, Orban, Fico, Trump, Le Pen, Farage, and so many more. This human rubbish must be swept away
The only luck is that Salvini's popularity is declining constantly
