They aren't colluding so much as trying to establish something similar here where only the rich and connected will make the decisions. Trump is a perfect example of this; he's never had to answer to anyone but himself. All they need is to gerrymander their states and use the electoral college to their advantage. Putin has given them an outline on how to rule perpetually; grab the money (and power), use the justice system to wail on you're opponents and throw in some terrorism to keep people off balance and supporting your candidates.

In the long run this can not stand. Cronyism and nepotism eventually leads to collapse as the old order can not innovate their way out of their problems. I will lose heart if the Dems can not make significant progress in the midterm and eventual state and local elections.
