the russians didnt just influence the election, i think they put drumph up to it.

who is paul manafort, and how did he come to be his campaign manager?
we know he has close ties to russia, and is suspected in rigging the referendum on ukrainian.

i want to know how he got the job, and what he had to do with getting this gasbag off the ground in the first place.

if i were putin, i would have spotted him for a mark immediately. so, what did pootie poot do next? send his buddy to blow some air up his skirt. to flatter him. to make promises to him. an ego that size is soooo very ripe for the picking.

this goes a lot deeper than fake news and hacked emails.

You can visit their sewer to read all about the bullshit excuses they have for disbelieving the CIA while they prop up Russia.

over the years thinking he would be a presidential candidate. Rove identified George W. Bush early on and then walked him his career to make it appear presidential. Then made him president. All these Trump supporters knew each other didn't they? Back in the 1980s?
