....to make that term happen?
Putin's ambitions likely do not end with the simple lifting of sanctions and a bromance with a fairly repulsive man.
Can we foresee the ways in which he would help Trump win a GE?
And can we discern (from world history, from Putin's playbook, from informed speculation) what Putin's intention for America is?
We see the sowing of chaos in the land as a known precursor to the pre-totalitarian state. That seems to be where we are. Agree? Disagree?
It seems important to remember that Putin's plan is longer than Trump's current term.

(63,845 posts)take us down by a treasonous, greedy POS. Not a foreign terrorist, but a homegrown terrorist. Putin is holding the US by the balls. His plan is to have total dominance over us and taking down democracies around the world. And making us a third world country, unless we rise to the occasion.
